| dc.description.abstract | Migratory movements are recurrent phenomena throughout time, due to the need of individuals to move to other territories in search of different motivations. They are flows that become visible, on a large scale and in different contexts, frequently owing to the news published by the different media. Thus, considering the social area, the immigration thematic, the press and the state of Rio Grande do Sul as its basis, the present research seeks to understand how the Zero Hora newspaper discursively constructs the Haitian and Senegalese immigrants who were living in Rio Grande do Sul during the period of 2014 and 2015. Based on the analysis conducted, it was possible to verify that the newspaper establishes different discursive constructions related to these individuals, based on the speeches of different actors – being they representatives of the public sector, of the private sector or from the civil society. Social discourses surrounded by an ethnic-racial grammar, focused on the achievement of a better life in a new territory. | en |
