Biography

İbrahim Efe is Professor in the Department of New Media and Communication at Ibn Haldun University. He completed his MA and PhD in journalism and discourse analysis at Lancaster University, UK. Before joining Ibn Haldun University, he worked at the Faculty of Communications, Sakarya University, at the Department of Political Science and Public Administration, Kilis 7 Aralık University, and at the Global Development Institute, University of Manchester.

As a discourse and communication scholar, his publications and ongoing work centre primarily on media discourse and digital communication: the representation of refugees and minorities in the Turkish press, anti-refugee far-right discourse and online mobilisation on social media, digital journalism practice and news framing, and media discourse in political communication. His methodological approach is grounded in corpus-assisted critical discourse analysis. His articles have appeared in Discourse & Communication, Journal of Language and Politics, Migration Studies, and Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, among other Q1 journals.
