The political discourse on the Goals of Sustainable Development in relation to migration in the Spanish press
Abstract
This article analyzes, using the methodology of quantitative content analysis, more than 400 pieces from eight Spanish newspapers that deal with the issue of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and migrations. Its main objective is to determine what the political parties’ discourses are around these issues, looking at variables such as thematic categories, the most frequently cited SDGs and the frames that both Spanish newspapers and political parties use to refer to these two interrelated global phenomena. The general conclusion is that there is a certain superficiality in the link between both phenomena, with the migration issue often being accessory to that of the SDGs. Furthermore, political parties, which represent a third of the main sources of the media, have different interests than those of social actors, with few nuances between them.
