Outside the box. The migrants’ journey as an attempt of slow journalism in Italian mainstream

The paper aims to examine the media representation of the migration phenomena by focusing on the “journey” dimension. This is to stand out from the tendency, common to the media representation of migration but sometimes also to the studies that deal with it, to privilege the emergency dimension as the main interpretative key of the phenomenon. Two are the case studies that will be examined for this purpose.
