Sample newspaper headlines and images on the Syrian refugee crisis in 2016 in two European newspapers, The Guardian from the UK and El País from Spain.

The project’s main aim is to analyze the multimodal representation of the Syrian refugee crisis in 2016 in two European newspapers, The Guardian from the UK and El País from Spain, in order to unveil which strategies are used, both in headlines and photos, to construe a specific conceptualization of the two opposing groups involved, European citizens (us) and Syrian immigrants (them). The dataset includes 100 newspaper headlines and 100 images (50 UK and 50 Spanish) from 2016.
