Muslim women representations in the daily newspaper La Libre Belgique

Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2014, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

This contribution explains the discursive modalities, which offer a media visibility of Muslim women in the daily newspaper La Libre Belgique. The analysis examines the newspaper’s material devices such as the creation of sections, the thematic structures and the reference strategies used in the news articles in order to construct social hierarchies based on religious identity and gender criteria.
