Abstract

Hrvatska povijest obilježena je iseljavanjem, a u 21. stoljeću negativnu migracijsku bilancu gotovo bez iznimke prate i druge negativne demografske promjene: prirodna depopulacija te starenje i neravnomjeran prostorni razmještaj stanovništva. Ovaj diplomski rad nastoji utvrditi na koji način hrvatski news portali prikazuju fenomen iseljavanja mladog domaćeg stanovništva iz Hrvatske i druge negativne demografske promjene. Koristeći se metodom analize diskursa, rad pokušava pokazati koje uloge portali pridaju različitim društvenim akterima u fenomenu iseljavanja, kako prezentiraju nacionalni identitet države i pojedinca te kakve su razlike u diskursnim praksama između pojedinih portala. Rezultati analize pokazali su visoku relevantnost nacionalnog identiteta zamišljenog prema teoriji socijalnog identiteta, te blago naginjanje prema desnoj strani građansko-etničkog kontinuuma nacionalizma prema političkoj teoriji. Portali iseljenike i građane uglavnom prikazuju kao žrtve, bez mogućnosti da situaciju promijene. Iseljavanje i druge demografske promjene prikazane su vrijednosno negativnima za zemlju, uz visoku razinu senzacionalizma i pesimizma.

Abstract (english)

Croatian history is marked by emigration, but during most of the 21st century negative net migration was accompanied by other negative demographic trends as well: natural depopulation, aging of the population and it's uneven spatial distribution. This master's thesis attempts to establish in which way Croatian news portals frame the phenomenon of native youth emigration from Croatia and negative demographic changes in general. Using discourse analysis as the research method, the thesis tries to show which roles in regards to emigration were various social actors assigned to by the news websites, how these websites framed national identity and what the differences in discourse practices between the news websites were. Results have shown high relevancy of national identity as conceptualised in social identity theory, and a slight lean towards the right end of the civic-ethnic continuum of nationalism in political theory. The news websites mostly portray Croatian emigrants and citizens as victims incapable of changing the situation. Emigration and other demographic trends were portrayed negatively, with news websites showing high levels of sensationalism and pessimism.
