Abstract
Arab migration to Europe has triggered vast public debate on immigration and European identity. But how do Arabic-speaking groups perceive their European resident countries? This study departs from the crucial role of media arenas in orienting perceptions. Adopting the approach of agenda-setting theory, it analyses news coverage on France and Germany, performing a multilevel text analysis of 3109 news articles in Arabic and relating them to usage data. The analysis of issues showed that France is presented as an active stakeholder in foreign politics, whereas Germany is more strongly depicted in the realm of domestic politics.
