This book explores how the public problem of the Ukrainian refugees is constructed in political and media discourses, by looking into the public debates, strategic narratives and practices circulated with reference to this crisis. Taking into consideration the particularities of Central and Eastern European societies, the authors analyse how the Ukrainian refugee crisis has reconfigured attitudes and discourses about migrants, identities and shared history and culture. The contributions share a thematic interest and are methodologically similar, while at the same time reflecting researchers’ distinctive interests and unique outlooks from their respective cultures. Classical approaches and analytical angles from migration and media studies are complemented with approaches stemming from the sociology of public problems, cultural studies, political psychology, and public diplomacy, broadening the methodological landscape of the field. At the same time, given the geographical, cultural and metaphorical closeness of the authors to their object of study, the book is uniquely positioned to launch problematizations on the validity of concepts and analytical stances employed in the analysis of the Ukrainian refugee crisis.
