Arthur D. Soto-Vásquez (Journalism and Media Studies) recently published "Border and Immigration as Etiological Myth in U.S. Right-Wing Politics" in Communication Studies. In the article, the author examines how causal arguments related to borders and immigration are deployed to diagnose a wide range of social ills, including housing shortages, crime, and rising healthcare costs. Developing the etiological analysis of communication, this article shows how immigration and the border are woven into a mythic narrative of siege and dispossession through causal arguments.
