Özet
The article presents the results of a preliminary analysis focused on immigration discourses in Czech social media (including selected on-line daily newspapers). The aim of the research was to provide a sociological understanding of the attitudes of the Czechs to the current refugee crisis and to explore the ways how various forms of public opinions have been articulated by Czech social media. Therefore, the text does not deal directly with analysis of immigration policies but with discourses surrounding, producing and forming the current events. The author argues that, at a high level of generalization, it is feasible to analytically distinguish three media/public discourses in the Czech debate on immigration: dominant anti-immigrant discourse, defensive pro-immigrant discourse, and rational-expert discourse.
