This article addresses the socio-cognitive conceptualizations of the notion of ‘citizenship’ within the space of smart cities. It discusses how smart cities expos are endowed with ideological bearings that mark a shift in these conceptualizations. This ideological shift is explored in the policy releases of Barcelona expo media centre 2019/2020 as retrieved from the Smart City Expo World Congress website. The framework accounts for the socio-cognitive aspects that are brought to the smart expos’ discussions, reframing it within the paradigms of Posthumanism and neoliberal urbanism. It is found that citizenship within smart city discourse is characterized by series of subjugating conflations between biovalues and biometrics, the body, technology, and the city and the citizen. These subjugations are discovered by contesting the metaphors of CITIZEN-FOCUSED URBANISM, VULNERABLE CITIZENS, and TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONISM with their reframed counterparts of BIOMETRIC CITIZEN, INFRASTRUCTURE CITIZENSHIP, and TECHNOLOGICAL PATERNALISM.
本文探讨了智慧城市空间中 "公民身份 "概念的社会认知概念化。文章讨论了智慧城市博览会是如何被赋予意识形态内涵,从而标志着这些概念的转变。从世界智慧城市博览会网站检索到的 2019/2020 年巴塞罗那世博会媒体中心的政策发布中,对这种意识形态的转变进行了探讨。该框架说明了智能世博会讨论中的社会认知方面,并在后人文主义和新自由主义城市主义范式中对其进行了重构。研究发现,在智慧城市的讨论中,公民身份的特点是生物价值与生物统计学、身体、技术、城市与公民之间的一系列征服性混淆。通过对 "以公民为中心的城市主义"、"易受伤害的公民 "和 "技术解决主义 "等隐喻与 "生物特征公民"、"基础设施公民 "和 "技术监护主义 "等重构的对应物进行质疑,我们发现了这些征服现象。

This paper critically examines the recent presidential memorandum that replaced the Anglicized exonymic version “Turkey” with the endonym “Türkiye” as a conscious, performative and public relations campaign at both national and international levels. On the surface, this change addresses populist sociolinguistic hypersensitivities surrounding the connotations of the term “turkey” while simultaneously harnessing the commodification and marketization of the Turkey brand through selective references culled from collective memory (i.e., past) and branding aimed at economic gains (i.e., future). However, at the deeper level, this transformation serves as a discursive political instrument and a top-down nation branding effort powered by substantial resources from the state and its institutions with an ultimate motivation to consolidate President Erdoğan’s political power and authority, elevate his status to that of a national leader and institutionalize his populist/nationalist yerli ve millî rhetoric from a de facto to de jure within Yeni Türkiye as a competitive authoritarian regime.
最近的总统备忘录将英式外来语 "土耳其 "替换为内来语 "Türkiye",这在国家和国际层面都是一场有意识的、表演性的公关活动,本文对此进行了批判性研究。从表面上看,这一改变解决了民粹主义社会语言学对 "土耳其 "一词内涵的过度敏感,同时通过从集体记忆(即过去)和经济收益(即未来)中选择性引用,实现了土耳其品牌的商品化和市场化。然而,在更深层次上,这种转变充当了一种话语政治工具,是一种自上而下的国家品牌塑造努力,由来自国家及其机构的大量资源提供动力,其最终动机是巩固埃尔多安总统的政治权力和权威,将其地位提升为国家领导人,并将其民粹主义/民族主义的 "yerli ve millî "言论制度化,从事实上转变为 "土耳其 "内部法律上的竞争性独裁政权。

The article analyzes debut interviews of female Israeli politicians, in which the interviewees are faced with questions or statements that imply that their gender, ethnicity or background prevent them from fulfilling their function as politicians successfully, in accordance with the “Gendered mediation thesis” (GoodYear-Grant 2013). We focus on the interviewees’ responses to these questions, and particularly on how grammatically negative utterances are deployed in the service of coping with the presuppositions directed at them. The analysis indicates that the negative utterances do not carry the full weight of rejection of implied presuppositions. Moreover, in some cases negative utterances are used by the speakers as part of a hedging strategy. By describing the role of negation in debut interviews of female Israeli politicians, the paper aims to advance a more comprehensive understanding of linguistic patterns used by women, and other silenced groups, to cope with biased representation.
根据 "性别中介论"(Gendered mediation thesis)(GoodYear-Grant,2013 年),本文分析了对以色列女性政治家的首次访谈,在访谈中,受访者面对的问题或陈述暗示她们的性别、种族或背景阻碍了她们成功履行政治家的职能。我们将重点放在受访者对这些问题的回答上,尤其是语法上的否定性语句是如何应对针对他们的预设的。分析表明,否定语句并没有完全拒绝隐含的预设。此外,在某些情况下,否定语被说话人用作对冲策略的一部分。通过描述否定语在以色列女政治家首演访谈中的作用,本文旨在推动人们更全面地了解妇女和其他沉默群体为应对有偏见的表述而使用的语言模式。

European Union (EU) institutions are highly multilingual environments where international communication is very goal-oriented, as they produce and define policies and regulations applied to all member states. This paper aims at exploring how disagreements and conflicting opinions are conveyed in such contexts through the qualitative analysis of debates in recorded meetings of the European Parliament Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety. Two meetings from two different parliamentary terms (2014–2019 and 2019–2024) will be analyzed. The study will adopt a pragma-rhetorical approach, drawing on studies on politeness and conversation analysis techniques and focusing especially on the management of Face Threatening Acts in English turns. Attention will also be paid to language choice, codeswitching, and to the international use of English. Results show that conflict and overt disagreements in the data are very rare, with speakers displaying instead careful mitigation of the language used, especially when English is employed.
欧盟(EU)机构是一个高度多语言的环境,国际交流非常注重目标,因为它们制定和定义适用于所有成员国的政策和法规。本文旨在通过对欧洲议会环境、公共卫生和食品安全委员会会议记录中的辩论进行定性分析,探讨在这种情况下如何传达分歧和相互冲突的意见。本文将对两个不同议会任期(2014-2019 年和 2019-2024 年)的两次会议进行分析。本研究将采用语用修辞方法,借鉴礼貌研究和会话分析技术,尤其关注英语回合中 "威胁脸部行为 "的管理。此外,还将关注语言选择、代码转换和英语的国际使用。结果表明,数据中的冲突和公开的分歧非常罕见,说话者反而对所使用的语言表现出谨慎的缓和,尤其是在使用英语时。

Abstract This article analyzes the speeches of Turkish female parliamentarians during the headscarf debate. We examine how deputies with different political and ideological predilections discursively construct women’s rights and employ legitimation strategies to validate their policy position. The findings reveal that on the one hand, the female deputies use different legitimation strategies to justify arguments for or against the use of headscarves in the public sector. On the other hand, they embed the headscarf debate into the broader political goals they pursue in a polarized political setting. They deploy legitimation strategies around the headscarf debate to rationalize future policy on issues ranging from the expansion of human rights and democracy to the change of the type of political regime.
本文分析了土耳其女议员在头巾辩论中的发言。我们研究了不同政治和意识形态偏好的代表如何话语建构妇女权利,并运用合法化策略来验证其政策立场。调查结果表明,一方面,女性代表使用不同的合法化策略来证明支持或反对在公共部门使用头巾的理由。另一方面,在两极分化的政治环境中,他们将头巾辩论嵌入到更广泛的政治目标中。他们围绕头巾辩论部署了合法化策略,以使从扩大人权和民主到改变政治体制类型等问题上的未来政策合理化。

Abstract Research on issues of women has largely focused attention on, among others, power asymmetries and gender stereotypes, with less emphasis on positive linguistic mechanisms of women. Drawing on a critical discourse analytical approach and using Ghanaian parliamentary debates as data, this paper examines how female members of parliament (MPs) construct solidarity. The paper finds that, first, Ghanaian female MPs construct solidarity by positioning themselves as agents and the voice of (Ghanaian) women by using the inclusive- we and our/us . Second, the MPs engage in solidarity formation for (Ghanaian) women empowerment by championing the cause of women and calling for female empowerment. Third, the MPs demonstrate solidarity through congratulatory messages that highlight the achievements of (Ghanaian) women. Finally, the MPs resist discourses that discriminate against (Ghanaian) women. This paper highlights the need for marginalized voices to be centred in CDA research and contributes to the burgeoning scholarship on reparative critical practices.
女性问题的研究主要集中在权力不对称和性别刻板印象等方面,对女性的积极语言机制关注较少。本文采用批判性话语分析方法,并以加纳议会辩论为数据,研究了议会女性成员(MPs)如何构建团结。本文发现,首先,加纳女议员通过使用包容性的“我们”和“我们”,将自己定位为(加纳)妇女的代理人和声音,从而构建了团结。其次,议员们通过支持妇女事业和呼吁赋予妇女权力,参与(加纳)妇女赋权的团结形成。第三,议员们通过强调(加纳)妇女成就的贺电来展示团结。最后,议员们抵制歧视(加纳)妇女的言论。本文强调了在批评性话语分析研究中边缘化声音的必要性,并为修复性批评实践的新兴学术做出了贡献。

Abstract Whoever intends to answer the question about how collective identities are articulated today in capitalist societies cannot ignore the task of conceptually and empirically articulating two differentiated issues: on the one hand, the anomic situations of disintegration, in which the individualizing logic of neoliberal ideology takes center stage; on the other, the emergence of new phenomena of social authoritarianism in different strata where the psycho-affective dynamics of community identifications become especially relevant. In this article I will analyze the mechanisms of communitarian subjectivation deployed by neoliberalism in the time of its crisis. For this purpose, I examine some oral narratives extracted from a qualitative study of Argentine society, in which the interlocutors thread hypotheses about issues of public significance such as social inequality, the role of the State in our crisis context and the rights of immigrants.
无论谁想回答今天资本主义社会中集体身份是如何表达的问题,都不能忽视在概念上和经验上表达两个不同问题的任务:一方面,解体的反常情况,其中新自由主义意识形态的个体化逻辑占据了中心舞台;另一方面,社会权威主义的新现象在不同阶层的出现,社区认同的心理情感动态变得特别相关。在本文中,我将分析新自由主义在其危机时期部署的社群主体化机制。为此,我研究了从阿根廷社会的定性研究中提取的一些口头叙述,其中对话者对社会不平等、国家在危机背景下的角色和移民权利等具有公共意义的问题提出了假设。

Abstract This article examines how Nigerian female political leaders (NFPLs) exploit self-presentation strategies to formulate and promote social justice. Using insights from critical discourse analysis and Jones and Pittman’s (1982) self-presentation strategies, and with a data set from the verified Facebook and Twitter accounts of two female ministers and three female senators, the study investigates how NFPLs systematically utilize discursive strategies such as self-promotion, ingratiation, exemplification, intimidation and supplication to present themselves as a powerful voice for the voiceless and as active alternative leaders. The study argues that the strategies help the leaders to amplify their authority by showcasing personal presence and past accomplishments, appealing to the concerns of the masses and soliciting their support in future elections. The study demonstrates that these strategies project female leaders as dynamic participants in political and public decision-making processes and positively evaluate their contributions to social change.
摘要本文探讨了尼日利亚女性政治领袖如何利用自我呈现策略来制定和促进社会正义。利用批判性话语分析的见解和Jones和Pittman(1982)的自我呈现策略,以及来自两名女部长和三名女参议员的Facebook和Twitter验证账户的数据集,该研究调查了NFPLs如何系统地利用话语策略,如自我推销、讨好、举例、恐吓和恳求,将自己呈现为无声者的有力声音和积极的替代领导者。该研究认为,这些策略有助于领导人通过展示个人存在和过去的成就,吸引群众的关注,并在未来的选举中寻求他们的支持,从而扩大他们的权威。研究表明,这些策略将女性领导者作为政治和公共决策过程的动态参与者,并积极评价她们对社会变革的贡献。

The construction of agency in the discourse of Barbados’ prime minister Mia Mottley 巴巴多斯总理米亚·莫特利话语中的代理建构

Abstract Informed by a critical discourse analytical approach to agency, this paper examines the construction of agency in the speeches of Mia Mottley, the prime minister of Barbados. The analysis reveals that she enacts her agency in three main ways: (1) constructing strong and decisive leadership, (2) sculpting a ‘prophetess’ image and (3) issuing a clarion call to action. These processes enable her to project her voice, foreground the issues that are relevant to her and establish her legitimacy and authority. The study finds that Mia Mottley’s construction of agency is expressed via referential terms, personal pronouns, modal verbs and the representation of social actors. This paper extends existing work on discursive agency and illustrates the role of language and Global South leaders in the decolonization of political processes. It also affirms the view that research that foregrounds female agency is important in dismantling repressive patriarchal structures and building inclusive communities.
摘要本文运用批判话语分析的方法,考察巴巴多斯总理米亚·莫特利演讲中的代理建构。分析表明,她主要通过三种方式发挥她的能动性:(1)建立强有力和果断的领导,(2)塑造一个“先知”形象,(3)发出行动的号角。这些过程使她能够发出自己的声音,突出与她有关的问题,并建立她的合法性和权威。研究发现,Mia Mottley的代理建构主要通过指称词、人称代词、情态动词和社会行动者的表征来表达。本文扩展了现有关于话语代理的工作,并说明了语言和全球南方领导人在政治进程非殖民化中的作用。它还肯定了这样一种观点,即重视女性能动性的研究对于拆除压抑的父权结构和建立包容性社区很重要。

It also affirms the view that research that foregrounds female agency is important in dismantling repressive patriarchal structures and building inclusive communities.","PeriodicalId":51676,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Language and Politics","volume":"6 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135933680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract This study analyzed the multimodal discursive strategies Elisa Loncón, a Mapuche linguist and renowned academic, used on Instagram to position herself as a sociopolitical leader during her tenure as president of the Chilean Constitutional Convention. 811 Instagram posts from her account were downloaded from 15 January 2021 until 15 January 2022. From this, 81 of the most interacted posts were selected and used to examine her multimodal discursive strategies while drawing on the Discourse-Historical Approach ( Reisigl and Wodak 2001 , 2016 ). The results revealed three main themes: (1) the construction of an alternative leadership, (2) visibilization of female leadership decision-making, and (3) a vindication of linguistic rights. Referential and intensification strategies were particularly salient, and they were used to legitimize her role and foreground her Mapuche ancestry. These findings highlight how female political leaders (and their intersecting identities) strategically deploy their communication practices to resist sexism and racism.
本研究分析了马普切语言学家、著名学者Elisa Loncón在担任智利制宪会议主席期间在Instagram上使用的多模态话语策略,从2021年1月15日至2022年1月15日,从她的Instagram账户中下载了811条帖子。从中选择了81个互动最多的帖子,并利用话语历史方法来研究她的多模态话语策略(Reisigl和Wodak 2001, 2016)。研究结果揭示了三个主要主题:(1)构建替代性领导;(2)女性领导决策的可视化;(3)维护语言权利。参考和强化策略尤为突出,它们被用来使她的角色合法化并突出她的马普切血统。这些发现突出了女性政治领导人(以及她们的交叉身份)如何战略性地部署她们的沟通实践,以抵制性别歧视和种族主义。
