This captivating book delves into the intricate ways in which the public interact with, interpret, and critically evaluate the media representations of individuals seeking asylum. As a case study, the author explores her recent research, which amalgamates Critical Discourse Analysis with a cultural studies Audience Reception framework, to examine the viewpoints of 24 Western Australians who engaged in semi-structured interviews. During these insightful conversations, participants were encouraged to share their broad opinions on people seeking asylum, encompassing Australia's policy responses, their media engagement habits, and their perceptions of how the Australian media portrays these individuals.
The author skillfully compares and contrasts this research with broader interdisciplinary discussions, making the book an invaluable resource for students and scholars engaged in the fields of migration, political communication, sociology, audience reception, critical media studies, and sociolinguistics. By shedding light on the complex dynamics between the media, public perception, and social attitudes, this book offers valuable insights into the ongoing debates surrounding asylum seekers and their representation in the media.
