<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>With the invention of writing around BC 3000 and the invention of the printing in 1450s, developments occurred in culture, art, science and communication fields and the human beings started to communicate and interact with each other. The immigration phenomenon, which can date back as far as the human history also developed and continued to increase with the globalization and the developments in communication tools.  These two important facts developed and increased parallel with each other and they became the most important subjects of the world in recent times. The refugee and asylum-seeker movements form the world agenda nowadays and it continues to be in the agenda due to press and media organisations following the subject closely and creating a public opinion. The growing refugee crisis gained speed and continued to increase especially with the protests and civil wars called “The Arab Spring”, happening in the Arabic peninsula, and became the most emphasized topic by the media and the press agencies of many countries. In this study, six days’ news coverage on the topic of refugees in The Guardian in England and the Hürriyet newspaper in Turkey were analysed and compared. The study will try to explain and focus on the similarities and differences between these news contents, from what perspective the refugee problems are looked at and how they are reported in the news.</p><p><strong>Öz</strong></p><p>M.Ö 3000’li yıllarda yazının bulunması ve 1450’li yıllarda matbaanın bulunmasıyla kültür, sanat, bilim ve iletişim alanında gelişmeler meydana gelmiş, insanlar birbirleriyle iletişim ve etkileşime geçmeye başlamışlardır. İnsanlık tarihi kadar eski olan göç olgusu da aynı şekilde küreselleşme ve iletişim araçlarına koşut olarak gelişim göstermiştir. Bahse konu olgular, günümüz dünyasında, yüksek önemi haiz yapıdadır. Bu çeçervede, mülteci ve sığınmacı hareketleri, basın yayın kuruluşlarının konuyu yakından takip edip kamuoyu oluşturmalarıyla, dünya gündeminde yer bulmayı sürdürmektedir. Özellikle Arap yarımadasındaki “Arap Baharı” olarak adlandırılan, protesto ve iç savaşlarla hız kazanan ve artarak devam eden mülteci krizi birçok ülkenin basın yayın kuruluşları tarafından önemle üzerinde durulan bir konu haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada İngiltere’deki The Guardian ve Türkiye’deki Hürriyet gazetelerinin mülteci konusu hakkında yapmış oldukları altı günlük haberleri incelenip karşılaştırılmıştır. Bu haberler arasındaki benzerlik ve farklılıklar üzerinde durularak haberlerde mülteci sorunlarına hangi açıdan bakıldığı ve değinildiği, haberlerin içerikleri incelenerek açıklanmaya çalışılacaktır.</p>

Since the Agricultural Revolution 12,000 years ago, human beings have demonstrated an extraordinary capacity to carve up the world between us and them, have and have nots. This cleaving of humanity reflects fertile soil for the production and reproduction of the pejorative, demonised, and relegated other which is the subject of this book. From ancient empires, stepping into the classical age of Greece and Rome, to more recent political tyrannies, the refugee crisis, and the problem with the European Union, this chapter explores and illustrates the long reach of pejorative othering. It doing so it frames the subject to provide critical and urgent insights into a pressing problem.

Resumen: A finales de 2015, más de 65 millones de personas en el mundo se vieron obligadas a dejar sus hogares. Fue el año de los refugiados. También fue el año de la muerte de Aylan. La fotografía de su cuerpo inerte dio la vuelta al mundo y removió la conciencia colectiva de una sociedad inmune al sufrimiento de los demás. Fue un antes y un después en la cobertura mediática del conflicto. El objetivo de esta investigación es estu­diar cuál fue el efecto real de esta fotografía, y para ello analizaremos la cobertura fotográfica que realizó el diario ABC. A través este estudio comprobamos como la fotografía de Aylan consiguió cambiar el discurso del medio, aunque su efecto no perduró en el tiempo. Además de esto, el consumo masivo de imágenes provocó una falsa ilusión de verdad sobre el conflicto, al percibir tan solo una parte del mismo. Por último, comprobamos como la incorrecta utilización de los términos “refugiado” e “inmigrante” afecta negativamente a la imagen que la sociedad percibe de este conflicto humanitario. Un hecho de especial relevancia, teniendo en cuenta el servicio público que desempeñan los periodistas y los criterios éticos a los cuales está sujeto su trabajo.Palabras clave: Crisis de refugiados; Fotografía; Crisis humanitarias; Inmigración; Diario ABC.Abstract: In 2015 more than 65 million people around the world were forced to leave their homes. It was the refugees´s year. Also it was the year of Aylan’s death. The photograhy of his body went around the world and removed the collective consciousness of a society immune to the suffereing of others. It was a decisive change in the media coverage of conflict. The objective of this research is to study what was the effect of this picture. For this reason, we will analyze the coverage through pictures in the ABC newspaper. Through this study we verified how Aylan’s photography managed to change of newspapers discourse, but this effect didn´t last for too long. Apart from this the massive consumption of pictures caused a false illusion about the conflict, when actually citizens perceived only part of the complex conflict. Also, we prove how the incorrect use of the terms “refugee” and “immigrant” affects the negative image that the society perceives of this humanitarian conflict. A fact of special relevance considering the public service of the journalists and their ethical criteria.Keywords: Refugee crisis; Fotography; Humanitarian crisis; Immigration; ABC newspaper.

Research on the migratory phenomenon has produced many studies and from various disciplines. However, the knowledge that citizens have of this phenomenon is linked to the discourse by the media. It is not different in the case of refuge and asylum. The contribution of the authors involves questioning to what extent the media are present in shaping the image of migrations. Until now, the image presented is negative, problematic, conflictive, ethnic, and alarming. But this chapter focuses on refugees and, in particular, refugee women. In the same way that research on the migratory phenomenon shows that immigrant women have not been the subject of notable media coverage, it is to be expected that refugee women are not either. For this reason, it is interesting to check the degree of media coverage of the migratory phenomenon in the press (including the mobility of refugees) during the so-called “refugee crisis” in Europe. The chapter focuses on the news that include the refugee woman. For this purpose, the news published in the Spanish newspaper El País are used.

The Subject

The aim of the research presented in this article is to identify the ways in which theopinion-forming press presents teachers and their remote work with students. I assume thatby constructing press statements: mentioning or concealing certain topics, using specificlinguistic forms – journalists influence what readers think about Polish teachers, how theyevaluate their attitude to work and its effects. The problems raised in the research fall withinthe field of pedeutology – a pedagogical subdiscipline examining the teaching profession.Pedeutology helps to understand the specificity of a teacher’s work, analyses its determinants,creates models of professional competences. I have made the subject of my research thepress discourse understood as a communication activity, as a result of which we learn tothink about the world in a certain way. Although the concept of discourse is currently a usefuland popular research category, it still causes many definition difficulties. I am closest tothe sociological perspective of understanding discourse, according to which discourse hasa specific power to create the world, because it provides its participants with ways ofunderstanding reality. Getting to know the press discourse about teachers is thereforea very important matter, the way of writing about this professional group determines howpeople perceive it and how to behave towards it. The method of analysing the 18 presstexts selected for the study is a critical discourse analysis, which was used to answer thefollowing research question: what linguistic means were used in the discourse on teacher’sremote work and what the effects of this discourse may be. In the analysed texts about distance education, mainly expressions with a clearly negative semantic character are used,which in turn leads to discrediting teachers and shapes the belief about the crisis situationin education.

The development and the progress of media communication at the present is a fact of the knowledge and the technology development that must be accepted. It presence like the flowing water which has a fast current that brings also two influences both positive and negative that must be accounted for the members of the Catholic Students Community Of St. Martinus Ende (KMK St. Martinus Ende). Both positive and negative influences the media community like a kinetic energy or a power attraction that attract  them in a tiring ambiquity. Let them walk alone without escort of a decisive compass where they should have a rightist attitude and responsible. On the point, the guidance and assistance of the church is an  offering  if the church will be born a generation  of the future  of the  church  that is mature and has a certain quality  based  on the growth  and the development  of acuteness and inner  to determine the attitude to the development of media communication. The process of sharpening of mind and the sharpeness of the participants can be realized by giving some activities such as: awareness, deepening and even  the sharpeness of the actor of  media communication as an  alternative of reporting work of the God Kingdom for human beings. It becomes the main moving spirit or activator  for the board of KMK Of St. Martinus Ende  to plan and boring  about the activity of catechism. The activity rise the method of Amos.  By this method, the participants are invited to build a deeply reflection that based on thein real experiences about the media communication, while keep on self opening to the God planning will come  to them  and  give them via  the commandment of God.  The commandment  of God  come to light, inspiration, motivate, power and critics to the  participants about the using of the media communication as a media of the commandment of the kingdom of God  to the world that is more progress and development lately.

As If

I completed the main text of this book a few days before Coronavirus, as it was called at the beginning, started to become a major story in the news in Europe. Now, just over three months later, as the book is about go for printing it seems as if the COVID-19 pandemic, as it is now called, is about the only story in the world’s media. In the circumstances, it seems important that I say something about the virus and its potential impact on the subject of this book. As I write these words, in early Ma y 2020, the pandemic has killed at least 264,000 people worldwide and some 3.8 million people are confirmed to have been infected, although the actual number is likely to be significantly higher as many people who have had the virus may not have had it confirmed through testing. To put this in context, the Spanish Flu pandemic in 1918 killed an estimated 50 million people, while the highly publicised outbreak of SARS in 2003 killed fewer than 1,000 people. The 2014-2016 Ebola outbreak in Africa resulted in the deaths of an estimated 11,300 people. So COVID-19 is far and away the largest pandemic, in terms of deaths, to hit the world in just over a century. Of course, we do not yet know the final death toll from it, for as I write it is still continuing. Furthermore, unlike SARS and Ebola this virus is a true pandemic, affecting virtually every part of the planet where human beings live.

The term global suggests all-inclusiveness and brings to mind connectivity, a notion that gained a boost from Marshall McLuhan's reference to the mass-mediated ‘global village’. In the past decade it has rapidly become part of the everyday vocabulary not only of academics and business people, but also has circulated widely in the media in various parts of the world. There have also been the beginnings of political movements against globalization and proposals for ‘de-globalization’ and ‘alternative globalizations’, projects to re-define the global. In effect, the terminology has globalized and globalization is varyingly lauded, reviled and debated around the world. The rationale of much previous thinking on humanity in the social sciences has been to assume a linear process of social integration, as more and more people are drawn into a widening circle of interdependencies in the movement to larger units, but the new forms of binding together of social life necessitate the development of new forms of global knowledge which go beyond the old classifications. It is also in this sense that the tightening of the interdependency chains between human beings, and also between human beings and other life forms, suggests we need to think about the relevance of academic knowledge to the emergent global public sphere.

Contemporary Architecture

Many, if not a majority, of the world’s citizens view contemporary architecture as ineffective in accommodating the lives of everyday human beings. And yet, voluminous texts by prominent architects and the media argue just the opposite; that, in fact, flashy and expensive new projects profoundly benefit humanity. Those buildings supposedly provide continued advancement in how humans occupy the world. While there is no doubt that the built environment is instrumental to human achievement and wellbeing, what is the true value of the ill-formed, and perhaps ill-conceived, products of today’s leading architects? This essay argues that the elite power structure behind high-profile architectural projects is focused more upon promoting like-minded architects, and their narrow ideological interests, than in satisfying the ordinary everyday user. In doing so, this activity irrevocably damages the environment and markedly diminishes human neuro-physiological engagement with the man-made world. The logical conclusion from this purposeful misrepresentation is that the profession deliberately manipulates both the general public and architecture students to serve its own agenda.

Metaphor has been studied as a pervasive and intrinsic discourse tool over the last decades in many different types of discourse (Lakoff and Johnson 1980, Semino 2008, Kövecses 2010, etc.). Considering the strong effect it has on the discourse participants and how it can persuade them towards one side, action, or thought (Charteris-Black 2004, Silaski 2012), it is necessary to study it when the timeframe and the discourse where it is used are ideologically loaded. Based on recent studies on metaphor in economics (Alejo 2010, Herrera-Soler and White 2012, Soares da Silva et al. 2017), metaphor in the press (Koller 2004/2008) and metaphor and ideology (Goatly 2007, Silaski 2012), this article presents a corpus-based study of metaphor in reports of economic affairs in the English and Spanish press during the pre-election week of 2015. The corpus (about 160,000 words) consists of reports published by six newspapers that support different political spheres (left, centre and right): The Guardian, The Independent and The Telegraph in English, and Público, El País and ABC in Spanish. From a Critical Metaphor Analysis perspective (Charteris-Black 2004), the study starts from the hypothesis that the political stand of each newspaper might condition the metaphors. Indeed, metaphors pointing at certain side of political spheres appear in all the sub-corpora of the study, but in distinctive ways, as will be shown. In any case, critical factors such as cognitive and cultural reasons beyond the political stand of the media in question need to be acknowledged as well, which conveys further and more comprehensive analyses.
