About this book

Following economists and scientists, politicians of various European countries have realized that a modern society with a declining birthrate is in need of immigrants. What can journalists contribute, in order to enable migrants to feel at home in their receiving country? What can be missed and ruined by journalists and media with regard to the integration of ethnic minorities?
Scholars from Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, The Netherlands, and the U.S. present their findings on the matter of media integration of migrants. Can European media learn from experiences in the classic countries of immigration in North America?

Reviews

»Jedem und jeder dringend zu empfehlen, die sich zur Rolle der Medien in der Einwanderungsgesellschaft Gedanken machen.
Ein sehr gutes Bild der Breite und Komplexität des Themas.«
Simone Gretler Heusser, www.socialnet.de, 05.10.2011

»Insgesamt bieten die Beiträge dieses Bandes empirisch gesicherte Daten, die [...] vor allem für Medienschaffende und Journalisten wertvolle Hinweise und Anregungen liefern, wie Minderheiten und Migranten durch Medien repräsentiert werden können.«
