Communication politique et territorialité. Une Sentiment Analysis pour Tony Iwobi Après un bref aperçu de l'élection d’immigrés dans les formations politiques italiennes, l’étude se concentrera sur le cas du sénateur nigérian Tony Iwobi élu dans les rangs de la Lega. L’élection de Iwobi constitue l’occasion d’approfondir de nouveaux procédés de communication dont les immigrés en Italie sont les protagonistes. En considérant la capacité des médias sociaux à raconter les tendances d’une campagne électorale contemporaine, l'enquête qualitative sera menée selon une méthodologie d’analyse du web sémantique de type Opinion Mining: la Sentiment Analysis. À travers l’utilisation de cet instrument, on entend comprendre quels éléments (émotifs) ont amené à l’élection de Iwobi mais également si de nouvelles visions existent et, si oui, comment elles prennent forme: dans la perception des immigrés de la part des italiens. dans la perception des italiens de la part des immigrés. Dans cette phase-pilote, le corpus se limite à 6 journaux qui nous permettent de couvrir tout le territoire italien comme champ d'enquête: Il Fatto Quotidiano, Corriere della Sera, Repubblica, Stampa, Messaggero et Il Mattino et qui peuvent nous donner des informations sur les sentiments qui, dans toute l’Italie, ont amené au phénomène Iwobi.
