Meeting Description:

The University of Naples 'L'Orientale' together with the I-LanD Research
Centre invites you to attend the International conference on Words, Images and
Ideology of Populism 3.0.

Nationalistic, xenophobic and mostly right-wing populist discourses can be
seen both as a reaction to and a proposal to transform prevailing tropes of
democratic and multicultural discourses. The tension between this dual way of
construing political discourse has become an important line of investigation
in various academic fields. This international conference aims to address the
different manifestations of ideology in the international media outlets, with
the intention of investigating how these practically relate to the
socio-political contexts where they emerge. The current international
political arena seems to be a fertile ground for the study of the relationship
between language use and ideology, especially as present in different media.

Keynote Speakers:

Encarnación Hidalgo Tenorio (University of Granada)
Tommaso M. Milani (University of Gothenburg)
