- Abstract
Combining critical discourse analysis and corpus linguistics to examine discourses of refugees and asylum seekers in the UK press. The discursive representation of migratory groups such as refugees, immigrants and asylum seekers has already been addressed from various linguistic approaches such as Corpus Linguistics ([5]; [2]; [11]), Critical Discourse Analysis ([43]; [5]; [39], [40]) or mixed approaches that combine both ([61]; [12]; [30]). Indeed, [2] noticed that references to refugees increased dramatically coinciding with the war in Syria and that, since 2012, Syrian refugees were the most mentioned.

This research also poses new questions about the discursive representation of migrants and refugees in the press: Do host countries and non-host countries media portray migrants in the same way?.
