One of our LRC PhD students, Michelle Lawson, has been writing about her PhD research in the blog post linked here:

Her work studies discourses of lifestyle migration around the British in France, combining analysis of media representations with analysis of online forum interaction and interviews with other British migrants.  This post focuses on her analysis of data from print media, showing a clear representation of the British as ‘an invasion, with no sense of adventure’.
