title = "Online Hate Speech in the UK and Poland: A Case-Study of Online Reactions to the Killing of Arkadiusz J{\'o}{\'z}wik",
abstract = "Our study focuses on online reactions to the killing of Arkadiusz J{\'o}{\'z}wik in Harlow, Essex, in August 2016. It uses corpus-assisted Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to analyse tweets and below-the-line (BTL) comments of online news articles related to J{\'o}{\'z}wik{\textquoteright}s killing, both in English and in Polish. Contrary to definitions of hate speech as a targeted discourse, the study shows that in online discussions triggered by a specific event involving host and migrant communities, hate speech may not be exclusively related to the ethnic groups involved in the event, but directed at a homogenised Other in a reductionist way. Also, hate speech patterns may not be relevant to the groups involved in the event but to socio-economic contexts.",
