    Feeling the pulse of the Greek debt crisis: affect on the web of blame
    in National Identities , vol. 19, n. 1, special issue "Dividing United Europe Stereotypes, prejudices and the European (economic) crisis" ,  2017 ,  73-90
    This article examines the affective content of Greek media representations of the debt crisis, from 2009 to 2012. We analyze the content of opinion pieces from journalists, experts and public intellectuals published in Greek newspapers, and identify their affective tone towards political actors and institutions. We focus on anger, fear and hope, and identify blame attribution frames, which underpin the public's trust and confidence in domestic and European Union institutions. This article contributes to the systematic understanding of the impact of the debt crisis as a traumatic event on public opinion, and considers its implications for attitudes towards European integration.
