More precisely, the aim of this study is to demonstrate the existence of a common ideological framework that has a great impact on the conspiracy theory concerning the alleged replacement of the «indigenous» European population through strategically engineered mass immigration. Our hypothesis is that these conspiracy theories are mainly responsible for the origin and spread of fake news exacerbating political tensions with the aim of sowing a climate of hate and insecurity in the public arena. The analysis of the political and press discourses both in France and Italy, conducted from a discursive and a lexical-semantic standpoint, will provide results about the variety of forms associated with these formulas as well as of their circulation in the French and Italian “interdiscours”.
