Vita
Sheena Fee Bartscherer studied Social Sciences (B.A.) at the University of Osnabrück and Social Sciences (M.A.) at the Humboldt University of Berlin. As PhD student of sociology at the Humboldt University of Berlin she has been conducting a systematic analysis of politics and emotion in western media since April 2017, focusing on the argumentative structure within select media discourses. Within the chosen case studies (2016 U.S. Presidential Election, 2016 EU Referendum "Brexit") she was scrutinizing the conflation of 'populist' with emotional (political) communication by analyzing the (emotionalized) language of recent political media debates, following her own neopragmatist approach - an extension of the Pragmatic Sociology of Critique (by measures of suggestive actions). Since Febuary 2020 Sheena Fee Bartscherer is working as a research assistant for the department of social science (science studies) of the Humboldt Universityof Berlin.
