| Summary, etc | The COVID-19 crisis created a period when an otherwise globalised world witnessed the rapid closure of local, national and international borders. Migrants, whose everyday lives, with or without the pandemic, are disrupted and defined by borders and their liminalities, were the most certain victims of these closures. All media platforms around the world reported on migrant workers, either villainising them as carriers of the virus or sympathising with them as victims of continued racist assaults and ruthless state policies. But what discourses dominated these media representations of migrants? Analysing over one thousand news reports on migrant precarity in India and the USA during the first two years of COVID, we see some patterns of gendered inclusion and exclusion. We find that even the seemingly pro-immigrant media discourses continued to emphasise migrants’ vulnerability, turning them into feminised props for larger political debates. In the process, the economic contributions of migrants across skill categories and often as ‘essential workers’ remained invisible. The discourses also reproduced intersectional stereotypes, sometimes completely removing women, and often selectively magnifying or erasing their racial, ethnic and caste identities.-Reproduced https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40847-025-00425-0 |
