Abstract

In order to allow for a maximum level of transparency with regard to the research process, this chapter describes in detail how the three steps in the process of analyzing the primary data of the press articles were enacted. It engages all questions concerning the methodological steps: from identifying initial empirical frames and categories, to the two rounds of coding the press articles, which involved the search for numerical tendencies, and the three sets of codes (empirical references, theoretical categories and press reactions).
