Based on the critical analysis of the discourse of a sample of 347 news items published in the five written press media with the largest audience in Spain, different discursive frameworks - emerging and recurrent - around immigration and migrants are identified and analyzed. The results of the study point to a worsening of the stigmatization of migration as an essentially problematic phenomenon and explicitly associated with the spread of the virus on a global scale. The identified discourses reinforce, in a new way, old rhetoric that speaks of migrants as potentially dangerous, under imaginaries of a certain primitivism: they are vulnerable, violent, uncivil, incomprehensible, in contrast to the positive self-representation of a native, white and civilized Europe.  El texto presenta un estudio sobre las representaciones de la inmigración en la prensa Española de marzo de 2020 a marzo 2022, período auge de la pandemia del COVID-19 en Europa. A partir del análisis crítico del discurso de una muestra de 347 noticias publicadas en los cinco medios de prensa escrita de mayor audiencia en España, se  identifican y analizan diferentes marcos discursivos - emergentes y recurrentes - en torno a la inmigración y las personas migrantes. Los resultados del estudio apuntan a una agudización de la estigmatización de las migraciones como un fenómeno esencialmente problemático y explícitamente asociado a la propagación del virus a escala global. Se identifican discursos que refuerzan, de una manera nueva, viejas retóricas que hablan de las personas migrantes como potencialmente peligrosas, bajo imaginarios de un cierto primitivismo: son vulnerables, violentas, incívicas, incomprensibles, en contraste con la autorepresentación positiva de una Europa autóctona, blanca y civilizada.  Universidad Autónoma de Baja California 2024-08-12 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip text/xml text/html https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257 10.21670/ref.2413149 Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 25 (2024) Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 25 (2024) 2395-9134 0187-6961 spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257/2714 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257/2715 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257/2716 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257/2717 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/1257/2718 Spain, 2020-2022 España, 2020-2022 Derechos de autor 2024 Estudios Fronterizos https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
