This book investigates the linguistics features and strategies of conflict, crisis, and threat construction in the context of Poland, especially when the right-wing populist and conservative political party, Law & Justice (L&J), came to power in 2015. The party is known for its anti-democratic and anti-European disposition, which especially gained supports from the people who viewed European integration as obstacles to develop their own economy and who defended national identity and traditional beliefs. This book focuses on the discursive construction, and examines how the populist rhetoric is produced by L&J’s leaders to enact their leadership and reinforce their ideologies. It covers discussions of the parliamentary and governmental discourse against the opponents who weaken the ruling legitimization, and the complicated relations with the European Union related to immigration and economic activities. Through conducting a comprehensive discourse analysis on parliamentary discourse and governmental discourse from L&J leaders, this book highlights the threat generation as a powerful instrument for L&J to exert social coercion and consolidate the leadership. It also provides insights into the relations between L&J and the populist right-wing rhetoric trend in Europe. Along with the introduction and concluding remarks, this book is composed of six chapters. The first two chapters give details about the background of the study. Chapter 1 presents a synthetic account of the theoretical underpinnings of political leadership and political communication, and illustrates intertwined relations between threat construction, social coercion, (de)legitimization, propaganda, fear dichotomies, and credibility. It discusses the important role of the threat production and conflict management in enacting the political leadership, and further argues for the discursive construction of the Us-and-Them conflict as central instrument of generating threat. Finally, this chapter introduces the feasible analytical models, for instance, discourse space theory (DST), political metaphor (PM) and proximization in the examination of the discursive 1170676 DCM0010.1177/17504813231170676Discourse & CommunicationBook reviews book-review2023
本书探讨了波兰背景下冲突、危机和威胁建构的语言学特征和策略,特别是当右翼民粹主义和保守派政党法律与正义(L&J)于2015年上台时。该党以其反民主和反欧洲的倾向而闻名,这尤其得到了人们的支持,他们认为欧洲一体化是发展本国经济的障碍,并捍卫了国家身份和传统信仰。这本书关注的是话语结构,并考察了L&J的领导人是如何产生民粹主义言论来发挥他们的领导作用和强化他们的意识形态的。它涵盖了议会和政府对削弱执政合法化的反对者的讨论,以及与欧盟在移民和经济活动方面的复杂关系。通过对L&J领导人的议会话语和政府话语进行全面的话语分析,本书强调了威胁生成是L&J施加社会胁迫和巩固领导地位的有力工具。它还提供了对L&J与欧洲民粹主义右翼言论趋势之间关系的见解。本书除引言和结语外,共分六章。前两章详细介绍了本文的研究背景。第一章综合介绍了政治领导力和政治沟通的理论基础,并说明了威胁构建、社会胁迫、(去)合法化、宣传、恐惧二分法和可信度之间的相互交织关系。论述了威胁产生和冲突管理在政治领导力建设中的重要作用,并进一步论证了“我们与他们”冲突作为产生威胁的核心工具的话语建构。最后,本章介绍了可行的分析模型,如话语空间理论(DST)、政治隐喻(PM)和近似化,以考察话语1170676 DCM0010.1177/17504813231170676话语与交际书评书评2023

As the number of refugees in Türkiye continues to grow, the constructed discourse of welcoming refugees with open arms has weakened, transforming the image of refugees from ‘guests’ to ‘threats’. Social media platforms are used to spread hate speech, discrimination, racism, and otherization. Drawing on the Corpus-assisted Critical Discourse Analysis approach, the present research investigates how language is used to produce online discourses in tweets about refugees in the aftermath of a major social triggering event in Türkiye. This mixed-methods study incorporated both a corpus analysis of tweets posted on Twitter over a specific period, as well as a critical discourse analysis of a randomly selected subset of 100 tweets. The findings revealed that the prevalence of discontent and frustration of the host population against refugees has turned into a discourse of discrimination, hate, and racism. Moreover, a negative portrayal of refugees was created and maintained not only through lexical choices, but also characteristics attributed to them, as well as assumptions and prejudices about them.
随着土耳其难民人数的持续增长,张开双臂欢迎难民的既定话语已经减弱,难民的形象从“客人”转变为“威胁”。社交媒体平台被用来传播仇恨言论、歧视、种族主义和其他化。本研究采用语料库辅助的批判性话语分析方法,调查了在土耳其发生重大社会触发事件后,语言如何在推特上产生关于难民的在线话语。这项混合方法研究结合了对特定时期发布在推特上的推文的语料库分析,以及对随机选择的100条推文子集的批判性话语分析。调查结果显示,收容人口对难民的普遍不满和沮丧已经演变成歧视、仇恨和种族主义的言论。此外,对难民的负面描述不仅是通过词汇选择,还通过赋予他们的特征,以及对他们的假设和偏见而产生和保持的。

The present study explored the discourses adopted by the Kazakhstani universities to represent their organisational identity. It analysed the information of 30 Kazakhstani universities as found in their websites. It then compared Kazakhstani universities with their UK and US counterparts. These data revealed the discourses created by Kazakhstani universities to represent their organisational identity, and the socioeconomic factors that influenced them. A corpus-assisted discourse analysis was conducted by identifying the key semantic domains and keywords of Kazakhstani universities. Furthermore, the identified key semantic domains and keywords were analysed in detail utilising concordance analysis. In addition to the academic discourse; the organisational identity of Kazakhstani universities, involved marketing, change and managerial discourses. Kazakhstani universities construct their identity with an international outlook. The findings showed that the global trend in the marketisation of universities is relevant for Kazakhstani universities.

A critical discourse analysis of Al Jazeera’s online coverage of the war in Yemen before and after the 5 June 2017 Gulf crisis 半岛电视台对2017年6月5日海湾危机前后也门战争的在线报道的批判性话语分析

In this study, Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) was utilised to examine the Al Jazeera Arabic news website with respect to its reports on the social actors in the Yemen war, particularly the KSA, UAE, Egypt and Bahrain coalition and the opposing Houthis, both before and after the Gulf crisis that occurred on 5 June 2017. The analysed data included a total of 32 news articles related to the war in Yemen, with 16 articles covering the period prior to the Crisis, from 2015 to 2017, and 16 covering the period following the onset of the crisis, from 2017 to 2019. The overall aim was to uncover the ideological implications of various linguistic elements, such as lexical choices, news headline creation, and de-legitimisation strategies, and the results revealed identifiable, distinct, and non-random changes in tone and angle of representation relating to the various social actors and their actions. Before the crisis, the coalition was represented positively while Houthis was presented negatively, while after the crisis, the tone towards these social actors was completely reversed. The various discursive strategies used in the articles across both periods thus show that the coverage of the Yemen crisis was intended to ideologically and politically guide readers’ understanding of the crisis.
在这项研究中,批判性话语分析(CDA)被用来检查半岛电视台阿拉伯语新闻网站关于也门战争中社会行为者的报道,特别是2017年6月5日海湾危机前后的KSA、阿联酋、埃及和巴林联盟以及反对的胡塞人。分析的数据共包括32篇与也门战争有关的新闻文章,其中16篇报道了危机前的2015年至2017年,16篇报道危机爆发后的2017年至2019年。总体目标是揭示各种语言元素的意识形态含义,如词汇选择、新闻标题创作和去合法化策略,结果揭示了与各种社会行为者及其行为相关的语气和表现角度的可识别、独特和非随机变化。在危机之前,联盟的代表性是积极的,而胡塞的代表性则是消极的,而在危机之后,对这些社会行为者的态度完全相反。因此,这两个时期的文章中使用的各种话语策略表明,对也门危机的报道旨在从意识形态和政治上引导读者对危机的理解。

Versailles literature is a newly emerged phenomenon on Chinese social networking sites. It is in essence an indirect form of self-praise. Despite its popularity on social media, there is little research on this phenomenon. This study investigates the pragmatic strategies for performing VL on WeChat Moments. The results showed that Versailles literature often includes strategies such as implicit self-praise, modified explicit self-praise, and self-praise through comments and replies, among which the tactics that have not been observed before, such as bragging in a foreign language, creating false ‘question–answer’ or ‘compliment–response’ interactions and commenting to the adverts. These strategies are implemented in various ways by virtue of the technological affordance of WeChat Moments, in order to balance the disclosure and the dissimulation of the object of praise. The study also discusses the distinctive features of VL and explains the absence of some frequent strategies of self-praising in Versailles literature.
凡尔赛文学是中国社交网站上新出现的一种现象。它本质上是一种间接的自我表扬形式。尽管它在社交媒体上很受欢迎,但对这一现象的研究却很少。本研究探讨了在微信朋友圈中进行VL的语用策略。结果表明,凡尔赛文学通常包括隐含的自我表扬、修饰的显性自我表扬和通过评论和回复的自我表扬等策略,其中从未观察到的策略,如用外语吹嘘、制造虚假的“问答”或“赞美-回应”互动以及对广告进行评论。这些策略借助微信朋友圈的技术启示以多种方式实施,以平衡赞美对象的公开和掩饰。本研究还讨论了VL的独特特征,并解释了凡尔赛文学中缺乏一些常见的自我赞扬策略的原因。

Building a global community of health for all: A positive discourse analysis of COVID-19 discourse 构建全球全民健康共同体:新冠肺炎话语的实证话语分析
IF 1.9 2区 文学 Q2 COMMUNICATION Pub Date : 2023-03-27 DOI: 10.1177/17504813231163078
Tayden Fung Chan, Yating Yu
‘A global community of health for all’ has become a dominant concept in China’s global health governance system. Although this concept has been investigated by several studies in different domains, little attention has been given to its discursive legitimation in China’s media communication from a linguistic perspective. To fill this gap, the present study employs positive discourse analysis to investigate how the aforementioned concept is legitimised via the predominant discourses associated with COVID-19 in state-run Chinese English-language newspapers. The findings show that the Chinese news media attempted to formulate the positive discourses, including cooperation as a win-win solution, people’s lives and well-being as the priority and science as the spirit, though the discourses may not resonate with some countries. The findings shed light on the use of language by the media in promoting official ideologies, projecting China’s national image and improving China’s international relations amid a global health crisis.
“人人享有卫生健康的全球共同体”已成为中国全球卫生治理体系的主导理念。虽然这一概念已经在不同的领域得到了研究,但从语言学的角度来看,它在中国媒体传播中的话语合法性却很少受到关注。为了填补这一空白,本研究采用积极话语分析来调查上述概念是如何通过与COVID-19相关的主要话语在中国官方英语报纸上合法化的。研究结果表明,中国新闻媒体试图形成积极的话语,包括合作共赢、以人民的生命和福祉为优先、以科学为精神,尽管这些话语可能不会在一些国家产生共鸣。这些发现揭示了媒体在宣传官方意识形态、展示中国国家形象以及在全球卫生危机中改善中国国际关系方面使用语言的问题。

Although this concept has been investigated by several studies in different domains, little attention has been given to its discursive legitimation in China’s media communication from a linguistic perspective. To fill this gap, the present study employs positive discourse analysis to investigate how the aforementioned concept is legitimised via the predominant discourses associated with COVID-19 in state-run Chinese English-language newspapers. The findings show that the Chinese news media attempted to formulate the positive discourses, including cooperation as a win-win solution, people’s lives and well-being as the priority and science as the spirit, though the discourses may not resonate with some countries. The findings shed light on the use of language by the media in promoting official ideologies, projecting China’s national image and improving China’s international relations amid a global health crisis.","PeriodicalId":46726,"journal":{"name":"Discourse & Communication","volume":"17 1","pages":"522 - 537"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45294025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multicommunication is a form of multitasking that involves engaging in two or more interactional activities simultaneously. Technological features of mediated communication make multicommunication more practical, yet it is questioned whether the quality of our interactions is upheld when interpersonal engagement is split. This paper addresses this concern by asking whether interactional techniques are employed by multicommunicators in the context of Facebook and what this means for the quality of our online interactions. Building on previous multicommunication research, this paper examines how multicommunication is managed behind the screen: that is, how interlocutors move between overlapping conversations rather than the organisation within conversations themselves. In doing this, this paper extends the Goffmanian concept of ‘participatory roles’, arguing that multicommunicators adopt the role of a ‘manager’ to move between numerous conversation threads. Through presenting screen capture data of Facebook Messenger interactions, and drawing on micro analytic methods, it is revealed how Facebook users work to simplify their interactions when multicommunicating whilst simultaneously preserving interactional complexity.
多重通信是一种多任务的形式,包括同时参与两个或更多的互动活动。媒介沟通的技术特征使多重沟通更加实用,然而,当人际交往被分割时,我们的互动质量是否得到维持,这是一个问题。本文通过询问在Facebook的背景下,多传播者是否使用了互动技术,以及这对我们在线互动的质量意味着什么,来解决这个问题。基于先前的多通信研究,本文探讨了多通信是如何在屏幕后面管理的:也就是说,对话者如何在重叠的对话之间移动,而不是对话本身的组织。在此过程中,本文扩展了Goffmanian的“参与性角色”概念,认为多沟通者采用“管理者”的角色在众多对话线程之间移动。通过呈现Facebook Messenger交互的屏幕截图数据,并利用微分析方法,揭示了Facebook用户如何在多通信时简化他们的交互,同时保持交互的复杂性。
