Show notes for Episode 52

Here are the show notes for Episode 52, a migration discourses bumper episode, in which we feature two interviews. First off, Dan and Raj talk to Professor Charlotte Taylor of the University of Sussex about:

Why corpus linguistics can refresh the parts other approaches cannot reach
Discourses around migration and the metaphors that are often used - water, commodity and them/us
Why discourses around migration are usually about immigration
Why nostalgia is such a powerful theme
Whether the discourses around migration are worse now than they have been in the past
Tools for students analysing language discourses

We also talk to Ana Gavalas of the Migrants’ Rights Network about:

The work of their organisation and why it matters
The ‘Words Matter’ campaign they have been running
Why migration is linked to wider struggles
Why challenging dangerous migration myths involves critically engaging with language.
