Abstract:
ABSTRACT: The “hunger riots” that hit most African countries in 2008 gave rise to Cameroon, with a prolific discursive production which media relayed abundantly. Postulating that "media discourses are essentially 'mediating' discourses of other discourses" (Moirand, 2006), this paper questions the mediation manifested in and with the "pluricode discourse" of comic press. Inspired by Peytard’s "new considerations on the semiolinguistics of alteration", the study, which is based on a corpus of caricature taken from newspapers published between February 13 and March 13, 2008, states that "any wording of the third-speaking as an act of narrated discourse involves an evaluative attitude of the narrated discourse” (1992, p.75). It then deciphers the modes of articulation of the "narrated discourse" on and in the narrating discourse of the cartoon press and deduces the discursive relationship between the journalistic and the pictographic texts. RÉSUMÉ: Les « émeutes de la faim » qui frappent la plus part des pays africains en 2008, donnent lieu au Cameroun, à une abondante production discursive que les médias relayent abondamment. Postulant que « les discours des médias sont essentiellement des discours ‘médiateurs’ d’autres discours » (Moirand, 2006), la présente réflexion questionne la médiation manifestée dans et avec le « discours pluricode » de la presse dessinée. S’inspirant des « nouvelles considérations sur la sémiolinguistique de l’altération », l’étude qui s’appuie sur un corpus de dessins tirés des journaux parus entre le 13 févier et le 13 mars 2008, pose que « toute mise en mots du tiers-parlant comme acte de discours relaté comporte une attitude évaluative de la parole relatée » (Peytard, 1992 , p.75). Elle décrypte alors les modes d’articulation du « discours relaté » sur et dans le discours relatant de la presse dessinée et en déduit la relation discursive entre le texte journalistique et le texte pictographique.

Abstract:
This research reveals double-voiced discourse in dialogues of Susan Glaspell’s Trifles. This research is categorized as a qualilative study. The data was taken from Glaspell’s Trifles text and indentified by applying Bakhtin’s double-voiced discourse (1981) and Baxter’s double-voiced discource functions (2014). It also applied Kate Millet’s Sexual Politics (2000) and Putnam Tong’s Feminist Thought (2009) to interpret the ideologies found in the text. There are thirteen double-voiced discourses found in Trifles. They represent two opposite ideologies; patriarchy and feminism delivered by the male and female characters. The discourses show personal power, debate ideas, and building solidarity. The male character uses the discourse to display personal power. Meanwhile, the female characters use the discourses to debate ideas and build their solidarity as women.

Accordingly the present work seeks to actualize certain aims, the most important of which are: 1- Identifying the pragma-discoursal devices study of racism. 2- Determining the major pragma-discoursal devices that are utilized for launching, maintaining and terminating racist discourse. 3- Scrutinizing the pragma-discoursal strategies that are employed by racists to actualize their aims. 4- Investigating the commonest pragma-discourses devices and strategies that are utilized in ten English and Arabic selected Media texts under analysis. 5- Comparing the differences between ten selected English and Arabic media texts under analysis in terms of the different pragma-discoursal strategies exploited in these texts. 6- Developing the eclectic model for the analysis of the racist discourses of the English and Arabic selected texts. The following procedures are adopted to achieve the aims of this work and test its hypotheses : 1- Surveying briefly the relevant literature on the two fields of this study, pragmatics and discourse analysis in terms of the racist discourse in some selected English and Arabic media texts. 2- Conducting a comparison between the English and Arabic media texts under study. 3- Employing an eclectic model that is developed in the present study to analyze and scrutinize the selected texts. 4- Calculating the data of the study by means of certain statistical analytic means. To realize the aforementioned aims, the hypotheses are tested : 1The findings of this study aid the hypotheses that are suggested for the pragma-discoursal structure of racism, and mostly utilized in the launching ,maintaining and terminating stages of the racist discourse.

Abstract:
Abstract African churches in diaspora frequently use mission discourses in which they seek to reach out not only to Africans but to 'native' populations as well. However, though such discourses are sometimes followed up by praxis and incidental 'success,' there often appears a gap between socalled 'reversed mission' discourse and its accompanying praxis. This article explores why this gap may exist, through a space and place related understanding of mission and a case study of the Ghanaian Seventh-day Adventists in Amsterdam. It is argued that ethnicised forms of place making, reversed mission as an identity discourse, and asymmetrical and ambivalent authority relations may account for the breach between reversed mission discourse and praxis among Ghanaian Adventists in Amsterdam and possibly the larger African Christian diaspora. Les églises africaines en diaspora se servent fréquemment des discours de mission dans lesquels ils cherchent à atteindre non seulement les Africains, mais aussi les populations locales. Cependant, même si ces discours sont parfois traduits en pratique et jouissent d'un certain 'succès,' on constate souvent un écart entre le discours de la « mission inversée », et la pratique qui l'accompagne. Cet article essaie d'analyser ces écarts entre discours et pratique à travers une compréhension de la mission dans sa dimension globale et locale et une étude de cas sur les Adventistes du septième jour ghanéens à Amsterdam. Il est soutenu que les formes ethniques de création d'espaces, la mission inversée en tant que discours d'identité et les relations d'autorité asymétriques et ambivalentes peuvent expliquer la brèche entre le discours de la mission inversée et la pratique parmi les Adventistes ghanéens à Amsterdam et probablement la plus grande diaspora Africaine chrétienne.

Abstract:
Ice hockey is known for its speed, skill and aggression. This paper uses an analyses of injuries in boys’ minor leagues and primary documents to examine competing discourses that surround participant safety which give meaning to broader hockey practices. We problematize a prevailing discourse that preserves the physicality of Canadian hockey and an emerging reverse discourse that prioritizes player safety. Theoretically informed by Foucault’s concepts of discourse, knowledge and power relations, we interpret the relationships between these two competing discursive streams which have created a public controversy, particularly concerning body checking, and intensified a polarizing national debate. Ultimately, we argue that these discourses impact the implementation of progressive injury prevention initiatives in minor hockey and youth sport.Le hockey sur glace est réputé pour être rapide, technique et violent. Cet article utilise une analyse des blessures et documents de ligues mineures masculines afin d’examiner les discours qui circulent à propos de la sécurité des participants et qui sont reliés aux pratiques plus générales du sport. Nous mettons en évidence un discours dominant qui préserve la physicalité du hockey canadien et un discours contraire émergeant qui priorise la sécurité des joueurs. En nous appuyant au niveau théorique sur les concepts foucaldiens de discours, savoir et relations de pouvoir, nous interprétons les relations entre ces deux courants discursifs en compétition qui ont créé une controverse publique, particulièrement en ce qui concerne les mises en échec, et intensifié un débat national polarisé. En bout de ligne, nous avançons que ces discours influencent l’implantation d’initiatives progressistes de prévention des blessures dans le hockey mineur et le sport pour les jeunes.

Abstract:
Within the communication-based approach, discourse is an area of meanings, which are formed through the interpretation of texts. Those meanings remain in our memory and are active as per communicational needs. The meanings forming a discourse constitute a particular basis for reference, i.e. its own logic. Therefore, one must learn how to participate in specific discourses. In considering the general purpose of communication and the special base of reference of meaning, we identified such discourses as: academic, official, journalistic, and artistic, which one could narrow down to more specific sub-discourses. The texts created within a discourse or sub-discourse may take both verbal and visual forms. Each discourse introduces different rules of interpretation, which a participant must learn. Discourses develop and exist within their own interpretative fields. Participation in a discourse both expands and improves its interpretative field. When a person does not participate in a discourse, they drop out of the discourse altogether. It is worth remembering that people possess various levels of the readiness to participate in specific discourses.

Abstract:
This research focuses on topicalisation and forms of discourse contained in the health discourse in the January 2019 edition of Surya newspaper. The description underlying the researcher conducted this study is using discourse analysis as the main theoretical basis and the basis of research, beside topicalisation and discourse form as the subjects in research. The objectives of this study are to describe the topics between sentences and to know health discourse form. Descriptive approach is used in this research. The type of data examined at the focus of the first problem is sentence in each the health discourse’s paragraph in the January 2019 edition of Surya newspaper and the type of data examined at the focus of the first problem is the paragraphs in the discourse. The data collection techniques are observation, deciding the object, identifying data and coding data. Based on the problem, to have a data validity test, the researcher uses triangulation theory which compares the final result as information with relevant theory perspective to avoid researcher’s individual biases of the finding produced. The result of the study shows that not all paragraphs in the discourse have the topic. However, whole discourses have each main topic. In the research of discourse form, the result of analysis shows that expository discourse is the most frequent delivered in the health discourse in the January 2019 edition of Surya newspaper. There are hortatory discourse forms in the health discourse in the January 2019 edition of Surya newspaper, but not as much as expository discourse. Narrative discourse form is a most rarely delivered. Procedural discourse form, dramatic discourse, epistolary discourse and ceremonial discourse are not found in the health discourse in the January 2019 edition of Surya newspaper.

Abstract:
The article deals with the discourse of aggressiveness. The study is based on the material of the Ukrainian diary discourse. The research material is the diary entries of Ukrainian diarists. A complex of general scientific and special research methods is used: analysis and synthesis, observation, definition, systematization. It enables generalization and specification of the theoretical foundations of the study of the speech aggression problem in the diary discourse. The investigation focuses on the phenomenon of speech aggression from the latest positions of cognitive and communicative paradigms – the selected language facts are described and systematized; contextualized fragments of diary texts containing speech aggression are identified and described. The article proves that verbal aggression is most evident in the context of daily discourse. Discourse semes of aggressiveness at the lexical level have significant opportunities for the diarist's verbal realization of his negative perception of a certain situation or the interlocutor`s personality. They form the evaluative content of diary communication reflecting its peculiarities. A convincing feature in the semantic field of aggression is the high semiotic density of negative behavioral characteristics and emotional evaluations. The evaluative content contained in the aggressiveness discourse semes allows the diarist to express his disapproval, rejection, negativism towards the opponent or the subject of the dispute. The analysis of the actual material proves that verbal aggression in the diary discourse is a special type of speech behavior of the diarist. The internal structure of text messages in this type of discourse serves as a means of rendering intolerant information, containing a wide range of specialized and non-specialized invectives.

The discussion sets out to show that the intricate and often ‘hidden’ (as in ‘not made explicit’) linguistic demands academic discourses impose on NESB students need to be brought out into the open to highlight and clarify the association between specific lexicogrammatical realisations and generic meanings in the discourse. The paper concludes by emphasising the need for linguistically informed assistance for NESB learners at the tertiary level.

Abstract:
Writing assessment is a contested site where competing discourses overlap and invoke conflicting expectations, creating dilemmas for teachers who want to do what they believe is best for children and fulfill their school’s writing targets. A critical look at assessment quandaries reveals surface dilemmas as clashes between overlapping discourses, freeing teachers to work with and against institutions that create the dilemmas and their immobilizing effects. To illustrate how competing discourses generate assessment dilemmas, I analyze data examples from emergent writing activity by a group of children at a kindergarten writing table, looking closely at the student’s and teacher’s actions through the lenses of several prevalent discourses that explain early writing development: maturation discourse, skills mastery discourse, intentionality discourse, multimodal genre discourse, social practices discourse, and sociopolitical discourse (adapted from Ivanic, 2004).

Abstract:
This qualitative study explores how sociology is legitimated among established Finnish and Swedish sociology professors, who are conceived as a scientific elite. Drawing on a Bourdieusian framework, the analysis traces the discourses that define legitimate sociology in these two national contexts, and the relations between those discourses. While the scientific elite of Finnish and Swedish sociology share four discourses – the Excellence, Humboldtian, Emancipatory and Policy discourses – the relative value of each differs between the different national contexts. The Excellence discourse dominates in the Finnish data, while the Humboldtian discourse is dominant in the Swedish data. The emphases on the other two discourses also vary: in Finnish interviews, the Policy discourse holds a strong position, while the Emancipatory discourse is articulated only with nostalgia; in Swedish interviews, the Emancipatory discourse is strong and the Policy discourse is weak. The results show that different national contexts produce variations in sociology’s internal dynamics.

Abstract:
This paper considers intertextuality between official discourse on Islam and Islamic discourse in contemporary Russia. This divide between discourses transmitted by government agencies and Russian Muslim leaders allows for an analysis of the differences and similarities between them. A major goal of this paper is to identify the origins of these modern discourses on Islam. To this end, it examines analytical parliamentary papers and transcripts of parliamentary meetings, but also expert materials from the Russian media and results of public opinion polls, in order to demonstrate how the idea of ‘fighting Islam’ flows across discourses to become a dominant discourse in the Russian political sphere. Analysis of Russian Muslim leaders’ rhetoric demonstrates close semantic connections with government discourse (not just on Islam), insofar as their rhetoric is full of conceptual metaphors indicating loyalty to the ruling elite.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the study of electronic discourse, namely, its varieties in the context of studying communication on the Internet and social networking sites. The aim of the research is to develop a typology of discourses mediated by electronic devices. For this purpose, the specified types of discourses were distinguished and interpreted on the basis of the works of Ukrainian and Spanish-speaking scientists; the differences between virtual, Internet, online, computer, computer-mediated, electronic, social network and network discourses are clarified; discourse of social networking sites is interpreted as a speech representation of a communicative act that was implemented in social networking sites; a typology relevant for the Ukrainian and Spanish terminological systems has been developed. We believe that the term “electronic discourse” is a hyperonym that unites all the above types of discourse. In view of this, the following hierarchy (from hyperonym to hyponym) seems correct: electronic discourse, computer discourse (synonym: computer-mediated discourse), virtual discourse, Internet discourse, (synonym: online discourse), discourse of social networking sites (synonyms: discourse of social networks, social network discourse). The hierarchy of Spanish-language terminological compounds is similar. Unlike Ukrainian scientists, Spanish-speaking researchers mostly do not distinguish the discourse of social networking sites as a separate type of discourse. However, we suggest adding to the Spanish term system the concept of “discurso de las redes sociales” (discourse of social networking sites), since communication in social networks has become an integral part of the life of a modern person, and social networks themselves are a unique platform for communication on the Internet and the subject of research by many scientists. We consider further thorough research of the communicative space of social networking sites to be promising.

We will then submit and discuss the syntagm of “discourse of neoliberalism”, by comparing it as a variant of the capitalist’s discourse. Finally, we will present neoliberalism as a reinforced Master’s discourse, so as to call it the “hypermodern Master’s discourse”.

Full text
Abstract:
Open science refers to both the practices and norms of more open and transparent communication and research in scientific disciplines and the discourse on these practices and norms. There is no such discourse dedicated to the humanities. Though the humanities appear to be less coherent as a cluster of scholarship than the sciences are, they do share unique characteristics which lead to distinct scholarly communication and research practices. A discourse on making these practices more open and transparent needs to take account of these characteristics. The prevalent scientific perspective in the discourse on more open practices does not do so, which confirms that the discourse’s name, open science, indeed excludes the humanities so that talking about open science in the humanities is incoherent. In this paper, I argue that there needs to be a dedicated discourse for more open research and communication practices in the humanities, one that integrates several elements currently fragmented into smaller, unconnected discourses (such as on open access, preprints, or peer review). I discuss three essential elements of open science—preprints, open peer review practices, and liberal open licences—in the realm of the humanities to demonstrate why a dedicated open humanities discourse is required.

Abstract:
AbstractWelfare policy discourse plays an important role in shaping how marginalised groups are identified and how poverty is addressed. Research on welfare policy discourse has mostly adopted a top-down perspective, examining how marginalised groups are constituted through interrelated discourses that are produced and enacted by powerful actors. However, little attention has been given to understanding how welfare policy discourse is used and enacted by marginalised groups themselves. This article focuses on asset-building discourse, a newly ascendant discourse which suggests that poverty can be alleviated through savings and building wealth. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 24 poor single mothers of colour participating in a matched savings programme, the article explores how poor women rely on asset-building discourse to make sense of their poverty challenges and how to overcome them. The study finds that the women express neoliberal ideals as they seek to portray themselves as committed to becoming self-sufficient, financially literate, disciplined savers and entrepreneurs. The findings indicate that the women feel empowered and see themselves as worthy citizens, irrespective of whether their economic situation has actually improved or whether they ultimately come to resist asset-building discourse's individualisation of their predicament.

The present study focuses on the discursively performed leadership during periods of transition and change in the context of competition-driven organizations. It explores discourses of leadership in a diachronic perspective, scrutinising the ways in which they construct and re-construct corporate and culture-related identities. Drawing on interviews and press conferences with several CEOs of two multinational companies, Nokia (Finland) and Ericsson (Sweden), an investigation of the challenges of leadership branding was carried out in a discourse-analytical and pragma-rhetorical perspective. Particular emphasis has been placed on systematically comparing the presentations in letters to employees by the CEOs of Nokia and Ericsson. This comparative study provides evidence for the internal and external challenges underlying leadership discursive construction and re-construction aimed at ensuring a consistent interconnectedness between a company’s values and its competitive qualities.

Abstract This is the second part of a two-part article which proposes an enhanced approach to eco-discourses after weighing the (dis)advantages of mainstream Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Positive Discourse Analysis (PDA). Part I explored the theoretical grounding for an enhanced PDA, introduced the research method and then, based on the adapted analytic framework of Stibbe (2016), undertook a critical analysis of the discourses of Shell Oil Company (SOC). Part II uses the same analytic framework to analyse Greenpeace USA’s (GPU) discourse and compare it to the SOC discourse. The emphasis in Part II is on the exploration of potential fissures in the discourses across difference, and the possible common grounds upon which to design alternative discourses that are empathetic, comprehensible and legitimate to a coalition of social forces. Practically, Part II finds that the two groups use similar discourse strategies, such as salience and framing, but with different orientations. Methodologically, Part II argues that corpus-aided comparative discourse analysis, with a focus on discourse semantics, will facilitate the identification of ‘greenwashing’ strategies that strengthen and stabilize current hegemonic social order; this part also points to avenues of alternative discourses which exploit the inherent contradictions or fissures within that hegemonic order. Theoretically, the paper suggests that within an enhanced Positive Discourse Analysis approach, it is also important to seek out points of convergence between progressive positions and to articulate these within a hybrid, counter-hegemonic discourse that maximizes its potential for uptake, while it destabilizes the prevailing discourses at precisely the fissure points identified.

Abstract:
This study focuses on the experiences of SM3T teachers in constructing teacher identity in the borderland discourses. Teacher identity construction is a dynamic process. One of the aspects constructing teacher identity is borderland discourse. In short, borderland discourse is the intersection between oneself as a personal and as a professional. The participants of this research were five teachers who have experienced SM3T program. SM3T is a program held by the government in Indonesia. It stands for Sarjana Mengajar Terdepan, Terluar, Tertinggal. In order to find out SM3T teachers’ experiences and beliefs about constructing teacher identity in the borderland discourses, the researcher used mixed methods which were combination between quantitative and qualitative. The researcher used close-ended questionnaire and also in-depth interview in order to gather further information.This study aimed to find out the borderland discources faced by the SM3T teachers and the solution to cope them. This study revealed that most of the teachers faced borderland discources during SM3T program.

Abstract:
The academic literature contains an increasing quantity of references to Smart Heritage. These references are at the intersection of the smart city and heritage disciplines and primarily within informative, interpretative, and governance applications. The literature indicates the future expansion of the Smart Heritage discourse into additional applications as researchers apply smart technology to more complex cultural environments. The Smart Heritage discourse signals an advancement in the literature beyond Digital Heritage and Virtual Heritage discourses as Smart Heritage pivots on the active curatorship of heritage experiences by automated and autonomous technologies, rather than technology as a passive digital tool for human-curated experiences. The article comprehensively reviews the emergent Smart Heritage discourse for the first time in the academic literature, and then offers a contemporary definition that considers the literature to date. The review and definition draw on literature across the contributing disciplines to understand the discourse’s development and current state. The article finds that Smart Heritage is an independent discourse that intertwines the autonomous and automatic capabilities and innovation of smart technologies with the contextual and subjective interpretation of the past. Smart Heritage is likely the future vanguard for research between the technology and heritage disciplines.

Abstract:
The article studies the urban imaginary generating processes in modern society. The relevance of this interdisciplinary problem is proved by the fragmanted character of the existing research in this area including urban practices diversity through which the city is imagined. The author demonstrates that media discourse is an urban imaginary generator, and it determines how the city is presented and perceived today. The theoretical analysis of the media discourses’ specifics that generate the urban imaginary is carried out in three key modes. The article reveals the specifics of media discourse, impacting the real and virtual collective city representations formation by appealing to discursive practices various modes: media content structuring, discourse actors, media technologies features alongside symbolic fight for city mental images. Besides, the author identifies the media discourses types based on research practices aimed at studying the urban imaginary generating features (media images, place uniqueness, urban space semiotics, urban discourses, etc.). The research also contains the author’s typology of media discourses, producing urban imaginary, is the main result of the researches based on the A. Lefebvre “Production of space” theory: a) media discourse of city space representation (official discourse); b) urban space media discourse (citizens discourse); c) urban practices’ media discourse (communities discourses). Such an analysis and the above typology allow to reveal the variety of the discursive practices production areas in the media sphere, the dominant vectors of the city’s meanings constructing, thus, to explain the discourse landscape, projecting different city representations.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to distinguishing a new discourse - the educational network, which is a completely new unit that has not been studied before, from traditional scientific and pedagogical discourses and its characteristics according to the classical established scheme of structuring discourses. In the modern world of digitization and automation of various processes, science and education do not stand aside, and the teacher is at the forefront of changes - scientific and pedagogical discourses undergo not only formal, but also qualitative changes, which are caused by the search for new educational paradigms and concepts, principles and approaches to the organization of educational process, as well as methods, forms and means of teaching students, the introduction of technological innovations that will contribute to the improvement of the quality of foreign language philological education. All this could not fail to fundamentally change the structures of these discourses and lead to the formation of new ones. The purpose of the study is to separate the educational network discourse into a separate structural unit. The task: to analyze the online “life” of Ukrainian educators and, based on this research, to describe the structure of educational network discourse.The object of the study is the educational network discourse, and the subject of the study is the definition of the main differential features inherent in any discourse. The actual material is a collection of materials on social networks “Intagram”, “Facebook”, “YouTube”, “TikTok”. In total, more than 500 pages of both well-known and notable figures in the Ukrainian educational space (the official pages of I. D. Farion and O. M. Avramenko) and little-known ones have been processed. Among the general scientific methods, analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, observation were used, in particular not included (observation of official pages); descriptive. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that it is the first attempt to study the educational network discourse, which is widely represented in today’s society. Therefore, the educational network discourse is not purely institutional, but is an argumentative, informational, socially ritual institutional-household mediated type of discourse.

Abstract:
The concern of this article is the language and ontology of negative externalities. Four discourses on the financially successful industry of salmon farming in Norway are critically analyzed and deconstructed. The discourses are: "high turnover discourse", "technology optimism discourse", "first nature discourse" and "traditionalist discourse". Groups defending various discourses differ in their interpretations of a) human/nature relations i.e. either ecocentric, anthropocentric or biocentric, and b) in their respective approach to either a transformative, adaptive or reactive logic. By linking interpretations, concepts and logic inherent to these discourses, it is possible to make conclusions on their degree of coherency. The leading discourses are maintained in language through strategic framing and overdetermination. These linguistic mechanisms are revealed in the discursive application of the concepts of sustainability and wild fish. Rather than to surrender to relativism, the article recommends integration of realism and deconstruction.Key words: Atlantic salmon farming, food production, critical discourse analysis, negative externalities, soft constructionism, parsimony, political ecology, sustainability.

Abstract:
The topicality of undertaken research is determined by the fact that presently in the field of media discourse there is an interaction between other discourses, which is implemented by means of signs, as a result of which a multifaceted representation of a certain event is achieved, which plays an important role in persuading the recipient. The purpose of the present paper is to study the semiotic basis of the interaction of various discourses within the media discourse. The study was conducted on the material of media texts – the texts of articles posted on the website of The Guardian newspaper. During the study, methods of discourse analysis, semiotic analysis, methods of observation and description were used. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the inclusion of signs of other discourses into the media discourse in order to represent a certain event leads to interaction between discourses, which manifests itself in the forms of interdiscursivity and polydiscursivity. The polydiscursivity of media discourse results in a multifaceted presentation and analysis of the situation described in the media text; the combination of signs of different discourses within the media discourse leads to the representation of a combined situation in it. The specificity of interdiscursivity lies in the fact that as a result of the use of signs of another discourse in the media discourse, a certain everyday situation becomes part of the media situation, a participant in which – a journalist – simultaneously performs the functions of a participant in the everyday situation; at the same time, the information channel, which is part of the media situation, is used to transmit specific everyday information, and not information about socio-political, economic and other events. The interaction between discourses in the field of media discourse indicates the interpenetration and mutual influence of various spheres of human life and the representation of this process in media discourse.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate and analyze the dominant discourses of the workplace curriculum in Iranian organizations. Design/methodology/approach The research data were collected through in-depth interviews with 30 professionals working in the field of workplace curriculum in three groups of consultants, managers and experts who were selected purposefully and with a theoretical sampling strategy. To analyze the data, thematic analysis method was used. The themes are extracted and categorized into three phases, namely, descriptive coding, interpretive coding and determination of overarching theme. To validate the data, collaborative research technique, member checking and researcher review and, to make sure of findings’ reliability, reliability index between two coders were used. Findings Based on the findings, the kind of planner’s look at the workplace curriculum commonplaces will shape the nature of the curriculum and in terms of this look define and redefine the workplace curriculum discourses. Therefore, based on perceptions and attitudes in these areas, 11 different discourses are recognizable from the workplace curriculum. These include suppression discourse, justification discourse, ceremonial/ formality discourse, administrative discourse, engineering discourse, economical discourse, psychological discourse, partnership discourse, research discourse, developmental discourse and, finally, multi-cultural discourse. Practical implications The common goal of all learning professionals in the workplace is to play the role of a strategic partner, or at least be a good partner for the organization. One of the main challenges of learning and development professionals in the workplace is increase in integration and alignment between learning programs and developmental opportunities with business organization strategies. Achieving this important goal is possible when we have a proper understanding of the current situation and condition. Various situations and conditions are identified and described in the form of 11 discourses. If the authors do not look at the context and proper understanding of the main concepts – The main concepts of each discourse are put into a quill – in which any discourse that was created, the authors will not be able to make the appropriate strategies. A good doctor will hear and understand well before the first thing. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is one of the few studies that offer a variety of discourses for the workplace curriculum.

This article describes millennial Pancasila discourse. Discourse on Pancasila is often combined with discourse on The New Order, ideology politicization, partisan ideology, practical political objectives, and other political discourses. The Pancasila animates citizenship discourse on life, ideology, and state. The discourse on Pancasila has a discursive dynamic that suggests discussion, from power parties using it for political propaganda to its alienation in social life, especially among the millennial age. The article uses Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) method to analyze big data from Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram hashtags for #Pancasila and #Millennial, scientific discourse in journals, and informants. MediaToolKit was used to mine besides informants from Java, Kalimantan, Sumatra, Bali, Nusa Tenggara, and Papua provided discourses and narratives. This research explores the Pancasila discourse among the millennial age and a novel technique of ideological penetration called "penetration without a label (Pental)" to internalize Pancasila philosophy.

Abstract:
The paper describes legal media discourse, which is a hybrid discourse formation whose preconstructs are legal discourse and media discourse. The study was conducted using general scientific methods: induction, generalization, analysis, synthesis, description; and specialized linguistic methods: continuous sampling method, discourse analysis. The texts of legal media discourse presented on the official websites of the English-language media platforms such as The Guardian, BBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Times, Washington Monthly, etc. form the empirical basis of the study. Legal discourse and media discourse are institutional discourses whose interaction results in forming an independent hybrid. The article provides the analysis of legal media discourse using the pattern of the institutional discourse description proposed by V.I. Karasik, which consists of the following criteria: typical participants, chronotope, goals, values, strategies, genres, precedent texts, and discursive formulas. The characteristics of the discursive hybrid under study are determined by referring to the preconstruct discourses features identified at the present time. The description of legal media discourse as a specific sphere of the intersection of law and media is viewed as not a mechanical sum of the characteristics of legal discourse and media discourse, but their synthesis which accounts for the independent nature of the hybrid discursive formation.

Full text
Abstract:
The article concentrates on the communication of generations. It also seeks to identify and differentiate specific features of discourses related to and connected with the interactions of generations. These discourses include the discourse about generations, generational, intragenerational and intergenerational discourses. The main differentiating criterion is the verbalized generational identity of one or more participants of the communication process. Addressing generational issues in the process of communication without actualizing the generational identity of the communicants and the accentuation of the thematic choice is a criterion for distinguishing the discourse about the generation as a separate subspecies. The coinciding or differing generational affiliation of communicants acts as a differentiating feature of generational, intergenerational and intragenerational discourses. The verbalized generational belonging of the addresser is the marker of a generational discourse. It usually has no designated addressee. If the generational identity of both the addresser and the addressee is revealed, the generational discourse is divided into intragenerational and intergenerational. If communicants belong to the same generation, the discourse is intragenerational. If communicants belong to different generations, the discourse becomes intergenerational. The concept of “generation” can be considered from a biological and social point of view. If communicants belong to different generations and are relatives, the subspecies of the discourse is the intrafamilial discourse (personality-oriented). If the communicants belong to different generations but they are not relatives, the interfamilial discourse subspecies is distinguished, which can be both personalityoriented and institutional in nature (if the communicants emphasize the function of the generation as a social institution).

This paper attempts to critically analyze the feminist constructions of traditional discourses and practices about spousal sexual relationships as discussed and debated in online Urdu weblogs in Pakistan. Using critical discourse analysis framework, the paper conducts a detailed textual analysis of an article published in online Urdu weblog "humsub.com.pk". CDA is used here to present an exposition of underlying ideologies, discourse strategies and textual tactics used by feminist authors to subvert traditional discourses of sexuality, power relations and sexual ethics. These ideological and power aspects of written texts are studied through various methodologies however the present paper has used Fairclough's (2003) three-dimensional model of discourse analysis. This paper is part of an ongoing doctoral research study in which three online Urdu Weblogs are selected as data sources for the period of two years (March 2019 to March 2021). For the purpose of the paper only a selected article is analyzed within the context of a larger data set. The selected media text is was published in Urdu language in June 2021 on humsub.com.pk. This paper aims at describing how liberal secular feminist discourses of sexuality and sexual freedom criticize traditional discourses and practices but these critical feminist discourses fail to engage in rational debates and mainly remain emblems of denial and refusal. Keywords: Critical discourse analysis, discursive, feminist discourse, traditional discourse, discourses of sexuality, textual tactics.

This paper analyses discourses on school failure of gymnasium students. Research strategy for establishment of dialogue with students is focus group. The method of analysis of the material obtained in the conversations with students is discourse analysis. First, two dominant strategies of focus group usage are discussed: as means for collecting data from subjects and as a social emancipatory practice. The prevailing discourses about school failure of students are mapped: the discourse of school as an insecure investment, the discourse of school marginalisation, the discourse of disinterest of students, the discourse of disinterest of teachers and the discourse 'school success does not have an alternative'. The concluding part discusses research implications on social position of students in power relations in education.

Abstract:
Policy changes and higher education reforms challenge performing musician programmes across Europe. The academisation of arts education means that classical performance programmes are now marked by strong expectations of research paths, publications, and the standardisation of courses, grades and positions. Drawing on interviews with ten teachers and leaders within the field of higher music education, this article discusses notions of mandate, knowledge and research in classical performance music education in Norway. Against the backdrop of academisation, the aim of this article is to illuminate central tensions and negotiations concerning mandate, knowledge and research within higher music education. The problem concerns issues of who should be judged as qualified and who should have the authority to speak on behalf of the performing music expertise community. The study is part of the larger study Discourses of Academisation and the Music Profession in Higher Music Education (DAPHME), conducted by a team of senior researchers in Sweden, Norway and Germany. Through an analytic-theoretical reading of the empirical data, informed by Foucault’s power/knowledge concept, two discourses on mandate are identified (the awakening discourse and the Bildung discourse) as well as three discourses on knowledge (the handicraft discourse, the entrepreneurship discourse and the discourse of critical reflection) and two discourses on research (the collaborative discourse and the ‘perforesearch’ discourse). The latter of the two research discourses pinpoints a subject position as a musician/researcher with knowledge, craft and skills in both music performing and research.

Abstract Objective To explore the ways in which people talk about knee osteoarthritis and how this may influence engagement in physical activity and activity-based interventions as recommended by clinical practice guidelines. Design A qualitative synthesis using discourse analysis methods. Methods Systematic review methods were used to identify qualitative studies exploring the perceptions of people with knee osteoarthritis, their carers, and/or clinicians. Methodological quality was evaluated through the use of the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme. Raw quotes extracted from each study were analyzed with inductive discourse analysis. Results A search of five electronic databases from inception until August 2019 yielded 778 articles. Sixty-two articles from 56 studies were included, reporting data (1,673 direct quotes) from people with knee osteoarthritis, carers, and clinicians in 16 countries. Two overarching discourses were identified—impairment and participation. The overarching impairment discourse prevailed in all participant groups and study settings. In this discourse, knee osteoarthritis was likened to a machine that inevitably wore down over time and required a doctor to repair. The overarching participatory discourse almost always coexisted alongside an impairment discourse. According to this discourse, a “busy body” was perceived as “healthy,” and people could remain active despite knee osteoarthritis. Conclusion The prevailing impairment discourse may potentially discourage people from using knees that have passed their “use-by date” and increase reliance on doctors to repair joint damage. Consistent with recommendations in clinical practice guidelines, a participatory discourse may provide an alternative way of communicating that may encourage people with knee osteoarthritis to continue to engage in physical activity by focusing on what they can do, rather than what they cannot do.

The study discusses cases of sexual violence causing women to commit suicide in online media news discourse based on Sara Mills's perspective. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The research data is in the form of linguistic units in news discourse on sexual violence in online media. The source of the research data is several online media that discuss the discourse of news of sexual violence to the point of causing victims to commit suicide. The collection of research data is started by reading news discourses related to research topics. Recorded data was found from reading the discourse on sexual violence news in online media. Next was constructing data, reducing data, and validating data. The results of the analysis of the four discourses on news of sexual violence that cause victims of suicide in online media show that the author and the authorities as subjects who tell, the perpetrator and the victim are shown as objects told in each of the news discourses. The reader's position on news discourse 1 and news discourse 2 is shown partiality to the victim. The reader's position on news discourse 3 and news discourse 4 is not clearly displayed, so the author can identify for himself the position in the news discourse. In addition, it was found that some linguistic units contain certain meanings that are needed in research.

Interest contention constitutes the major concern of both conflicting litigants in the courtroom discourses concerning business dispute settlement. This paper, by analyzing the features of discourse information units, studies how the discourse information functions work in the interest contention of courtroom trials concerning business dispute settlement. The present study shows that discourse information functions in interest contention of business dispute settlement can be classified into four types. Based on the previous studies concerning discourse information functions (Du, 2009), the present study finds out another new type of discourse information function, namely, the compound category. Moreover, it can be found that the realization of different discourse information functions rely on the use of different information units in the interest contention of the disputing litigants.

Abstract:
The essay explores the question of whether and to what extent discourse research, in its various versions, inspired by theories and methodologies from the (global) west, has been conducted as »fair-weather research« (»Schön-Wetter-Forschung«). Relations of power and dominance, hegemony, or marginality have always been at the heart of discourse research. But it has paid little attention to current phenomena of »re-ordering discourses« through body-related and speaker-related violent interventions and threats of violent acts. Such acts might unfold top-down, via transformations in performing state power and control of public spheres, or bottom up, as aggressions of political-ideological or fundamentalist religious movements against (for whatever reason) unwanted articulations. How can discourse studies respond to such forms of violent (re)ordering of discourses?

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to investigate the discourses that emerge when Sweden’s Art and Music School leaders talk about the inclusion of pupils with disabilities in relation to policy. A starting point is that both earlier studies and policy documents have revealed inclusion problems within Art and Music Schools. The research question is: how are Art and Music School practice, policy and inclusion of pupils with disabilities connected within and through leaders’ discursive practices? The data are based on three focus group conversations with a total of 16 Art and Music School leaders from northern, central and southern Sweden. Discourse analysis as a social constructionist approach is applied since it provides a means to investigate the connection between social change and discourse. Concepts from both discursive psychology and Foucauldian-inspired discourse analysis are applied in order to investigate connections between rhetorical strategies on a micro level and discourses on an institutional level. The concept of multicentric inclusion is introduced and applied in the analysis. In addition, concepts from educational policy theories are applied in order to analyse how policies are conceptualised and enacted in the context of leaders’ discursive practices. Regarding terminology, the results challenge this researcher when the concept of mixed abilities is introduced by the participants. The analysis exposes three discourses: multicentric inclusion discourse, normality discourse and specialisation discourse. There are tensions between the multicentric inclusion discourse and the normality discourse, as well as between the multicentric inclusion discourse and the specialisation discourse. The analysis leads to the following suggestions in order to achieve justice in music education practices and policies: (a) to enforce a specific national inclusion policy, (b) to challenge the normality discourse and (c) to bring together the multicentric inclusion discourse with the specialisation discourse.

It argues that the USA framed a specific discourse based on securing and legitimizing its political and strategic objectives in the war on terror in Afghanistan. This study uses the qualitative method of discourse analysis to analyse official texts and key statements by the U.S. Government on the war on terror after 9/11. It explains that the U.S. discourse on the war on terror resulted from the geo-strategic overstretch policy. The withdrawal of the U.S. from Afghanistan was a failure of discourse; however, it questioned the rationale of the protracted war on terror. Political and strategic discourses help to frame a policy in an ideational perspective while the reversal of discourses indicates a paradigm shift based on sheer rationality. The study has far-reaching implications for future research particularly in the case of hegemonic discourse which tends to fail or reverse the U.S. discourse about countering terrorism in Afghanistan. It reveals the fact that discourses are constructed much for public consumption and the U.S. strategy of withdrawal from Afghanistan is primarily based on domestic economic and political considerations.
