The work was carried out with the aid of two corpora built with the software NooJ and containing news on the subject extracted from the online database of six newspapers, Asahi Shinbun and Yomiuri Shinbun for Japanese, Die Zeit, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Der Spiegel and Die Welt for German.

The results constitute a step forward in establishing the role of media in influencing public opinion concerning the ever-present and highly politicized debate on the safety of atomic energy. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar todas las ocurrencias del lema ‘agua’ en artículos de periódicos japoneses y alemanes sobre el vertido de aguas residuales de la central nuclear de Fukushima Daiichi. El trabajo se ha llevado a cabo con ayuda de dos corpus construidos con el software NooJ y que contienen noticias sobre el tema extraídas de la base de datos de seis periódicos, Asahi Shinbun y Yomiuri Shinbun en el caso del japonés, Die Zeit, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Der Spiegel y Die Welt en el del alemán. Mediante el análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo del lema y de los constituyentes situados a su izquierda y a su derecha, fue posible delinear dos tendencias en la descripción del vertido, retratado como inofensivo o como peligroso gracias a elecciones lingüísticas y estrategias comunicativas precisas. Los resultados constituyen un avance en el establecimiento del papel de los medios de comunicación a la hora de influir en la opinión pública en relación con el siempre presente y muy politizado debate sobre la seguridad de la energía atómica.

The objective of this article is to analyze the occurrences of the lemma ‘water’ within Japanese and German newspaper articles regarding the release of wastewater from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Through both quantitative and qualitative analysis of the headword and the constituents positioned to its left and right, it was possible to delineate two trends in the description of the release, portrayed either as harmless or dangerous thanks to precise linguistic choices and communicative strategies. The results constitute a step forward in establishing the role of media in influencing public opinion concerning the ever-present and highly politicized debate on the safety of atomic energy. |
