Abstract
In recent years, the topic of international mobility has received a high level of mediatisation, whilst levels of hostility, discrimination, racial harassment and hate speech towards people with a migrant background are growing alarmingly in many countries. The words used in the media matter in the migration debate because language both shapes and reflects social reality. Discriminatory language is both a sign of, and a contributor to, inequality experienced by migrant populations.
