“…The anti-West rhetoric became dominant in the Russian media in 2014 (Pasitselska, 2017) and attitudes toward the United States and the European Union started plummeting (Levada, 2018b), while attitudes toward immigrant started improving. Support for restrictions on immigration dropped from 78 percent in 2013 to 58 percent in 2017 and agreement with the slogan "Russia for the ethnic Russians" dropped to 41 percent in 2017 compared to 55 percent and 52 percent in 2002 and 2016, respectively (Levada, 2018a).…”

This study contributes to the discussion on individual-level determinants of anti-immigrant prejudice by applying a multi-dimensional model of manifestations of national identity in Russia. This context is particularly interesting as anti-immigrant sentiments are widespread across all social strata and thus, socioeconomic indicators and political views are weak predictors of such sentiments. We use cross-sectional data from 1995, 2003, and 2013 ISSP National Identity module to assess the dynamics of three facets of national identity in Russia, namely nationalism, political patriotism, and cultural patriotism, and their relations with attitudes toward immigrants. We find nationalism, political patriotism, and anti-immigrant attitudes to increase over time. More importantly, our findings support the theoretical distinction between the facets of national identity: nationalism is linked to anti-immigrant attitudes, political patriotism is linked to more positive attitudes, and cultural patriotism is largely unrelated to attitudes toward immigrants. We show that these facets of national identity have much higher predictive power than sociodemographic indicators or political views. Our findings underscore the utility of a nuanced assessment of national identity in explaining attitudes toward immigrants in non-Western contexts.

“…Legitimation 'justifies "official" action in terms of the rights and duties, politically, socially or legally associated with that role or position' (Van Dijk, 1998: 256). Furthermore, legitimation is prototypically political, a claim that appears to be corroborated by the fact that a large amount of studies on legitimation deals with political issues: campaigns or political parties (Chaidas, 2018;Mackay, 2015) including media involvement in such issues (Hart, 2017;Pasitselska, 2017), discourses of migration (Martín-Rojo and Van Dijk, 1997;Van Leeuwen and Wodak, 1999), or 'the legitimacy of war' (Chouliaraki, 2005: 2;cf. Machin and Van Leeuwen, 2005;Van Dijk, 2005).…”

Legitimation of value practices, value texts, and core values at public authorities

A large number of Swedish public authorities produce 'platform of values' texts that present core values. This article presents a study of how such texts and practices, including the core values they revolve around, are legitimized. Using Van Leeuwen's legitimation framework, three different data sets are analysed: 47 'platform of values' texts, a focus group discussion with seven senior HR officers, and a quantitative questionnaire study answered by civil servants at three public authorities. The analysis shows how the existence of 'platform of values' texts and practices is legitimized through rationalizations, above all by describing the texts as concrete means for reaching specific ends and, with regard to the choice of core values, through a custom-conformity type of authority. Thus, this article addresses discursive transformations of contemporary organizations with a particular focus on available discursive space for critical thinking in the wake of New Public Management and related developments.

This study aims at revisiting the research on crisis communication and media use during the time of crisis by employing a systematic review on the selected peerreviewed journals articles published from 2015-2020 by reputable publishers which include Taylor & Francis, Routledge-Taylor & Francis group, John Wiley & Sons Ltd, SAGE, and Elsevier. The articles (n = 95) were carefully analyzed to examine the research trends on the topics, geographical spread of the scholars, type of crisis under investigation, research method and design, media channel under investigation, media users, and communicating organization. The findings indicate that the research on crisis communication and media usage viewed from the journal articles published from 2015-2020 remains fluctuative where the highest number of research was in 2016 and 2019; the geographical distribution of the research scholars is dominated from Europe while America, and Asia come next; the crisis under investigation includes managerial misconduct crisis, natural crises, public health crises, accidents, multi crisis, terrorism, and riot; most research during the study time range employed a qualitative method and non-experimental design; single media channel and multiple media channel were the type of media under examination; the media users which were examined consist of citizens/customers/stakeholders, crisis managing organization, and mixed of both.
