‘Lost in Media‘ gathers critical responses to the representations of migrants in the media in Europe through nine essays by prominent writers, artists and journalists. Starting point is their opinion that migrants have entered European countries, but haven’t entered the public sphere; when they do, it is as characters in other people’s stories as something other. “If migrants and refugees are to become fully recognized citizens of Europe, we believe they need to be participants in—rather than subjects of—the public debate.” ‘Lost in Media’ is conceived from the ‘Displaced in Media’ project and is created in cooperation with the European Cultural Foundation.
