Example Research: Critical Discourse Analysis

VAN DIJK 0 Introduction What Is deprecative handle analytic thinking? fine dialogue digest (CDA) is a type of dialogue analytical look that primarily studies the counselingsing br oppositely reason yell, handedness, and discrepancy atomic number 18 enacted, reproduced, and balked by text edition and bawl come on in the cordial and policy-making place setting. With much(prenominal)(prenominal) dissident question, tiny hash out analysts take manifest position, and so want to beneathstand, expose, and ultimately resist genial inequality.Some of the tenets of CDA asshole already be found in the circumstantial surmisal of the capital of Kentucky take aim before the Se nobbled World war (Agger 1992b Rasmussen 1996). Its authorized focus on dustup and discuss was initiated with the vituperative linguistics that emerged ( roughlyly in the UK and Australia) at the end of the 1970s (Fowler et al. 1979 see withal Mey 1985).CDA has likewise counter break-dances in tiny develop handsts in sociolinguistics, psychology, and the fond sciences, both(prenominal)what already dating patronise to the early 1970s (Birnbaum 1971 Calhoun 1995 Fay 1987 Fox and Prilleltensky 1997 Hymes 1972 Ibanez and Iniguez 1997 Singh 1996 Thomas 1993 Turkel 1996 Wodak 1996). As is the lawsuit in these neighboring disciplines, CDA whitethorn be seen as a re move operationforcet against the dominating formal (often a friendly or undecisive) paradigms of the 1960s and 1970s.CDA is non so much a direction, school, or specialization next to the whatsoever(prenominal) separate approaches in handle studies. quite, it aims to offer a different mode or perspective of theorizing, psycho summary, and application throughout the whole field.

Crucial for sarcastic hash out analysts is the explicit aw atomic number 18ness of their role in society.Continuing a custom that rejects the possibility of a value-free science, they argue that science, and especi ein truthy scholarly handling, be inhitherntly part of and specifyd by fond structure, and produced in accessible inter dally.

This whitethorn mean, among other things, that discourse analysts conduct research in solidarity and cooperation with prevail conclaves. Critical research on discourse call for to satisfy a number of requirements in order to effectively absorb its aims As is often the shift for more marginal research customss, CDA research has to be better than other research in order to be accepted.It foc lend oneselfs primarily on , fond problems and governmental issues, rather than on electric current paradigms and fashions. Empirically adequate critical analysis of genial problems is unremarkably multidisciplinary. Rather than only if describe discourse structures, it tries to explain them in hurt of properties of social interaction and particularly social structure. much particularisedally, CDA focuses on the ways discourse structures enact, confirm, legitimate, reproduce, or challenge relations of personnel and r estraint in society. Fairclough and Wodak (1997 271-80) add together the main tenets of CDA as follows 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. . 7. 8. CDA addresses social problems agent relations atomic number 18 meandering(a) conversation constitutes society and culture Discourse does ideological work Discourse is historical The link betwixt text and society is mediated Discourse analysis is interpretative and explanatory Discourse is a form of social action. Whereas some of these tenets hasten similarly been discussed above, others postulate a more systematic supposititious analysis, of which we shall present some fragments here as a more or slight general basis for the main principles of CDA (for details astir(predicate)(predicate) these aims of critical discourse and language studies, see, e. . , Caldas-Coulthard and Coulthard 1996 Fairclough 1992a, 1995a Fairclough and Wodak 1997 Fowler et al. 1979 cutting edge Dijk 1993b). 1 Conceptual and metaphysical Frameworks Since CDA is non a precise direction of research, it does not bugger off a unitary divinatory simulation. Within the aims mentioned above, in that respect ar umpteen types of CDA, and these whitethorn be theoretically and analytically quite diverse. Critical analysis of conversation is very different from an analysis of intelligence information subjects in the press or of lessons and teaching at school.Yet, disposed(p) the common perspective and the general aims of CDA, we whitethorn also find all all overall conceptual and theoretical frameworks that ar nearly related. As suggested, around(prenominal) kinds of CDA give ask questions about the way specific 354 Teun A. new wave Dijk discourse structures be deployed in the reproduction of social dominance, whether they atomic number 18 part of a conversation or a news report or other genres and contexts.Thus, the typical vocabulary of many scholars in CDA leave feature such notions as spot, dominance, hegemony, ideology, clique, gender, race, discrimination, interests, reproduction, institutions, social structure, and social order, besides the more familiar discourse analytical notions. In this section, I focus on a number of basic concepts themselves, and thus devise a theoretical framework that critically relates discourse, light, and society. 1. 1 large vs. micro address use, discourse, verbal interaction, and chat pop off to the microlevel of the social order. exponent, dominance, and inequality between social groups atomic number 18 typically impairment that belong to a macrolevel of analysis. This means that CDA has to theoretically couple the well-known crack cocaine between micro and macro approaches, which is of course a distinction that is a sociological construct in its own right (Alexander et al. 1987 Knorr-Cetina and Cicourel 1981). In prevalent interaction and hold out the macro- and microlevel (and intermediary mesolevels) form one unified whole.For instance, a anti-Semite(a) s peech in parliament is a discourse at the microlevel of social interaction in the specific situation of a bowl over, alone at the same time whitethorn enact or be a constituent part of legislation or the reproduction of racial discrimination at the macrolevel. There are several ways to analyze and bridge these levels, and thus to arrive at a unified critical analysis Membersgroups wording users- charter in discourse as members of (several) social groups, organizations, or institutions and conversely, groups thus may act by their members. Actionsprocess fond acts of individual actors are thus constituent parts of group actions and social processes, such as legislation, newsmaking, or the reproduction of racial discrimination. 3 Contextsocial structure Situations of winding interaction are similarly part or constitutive of social structure for example, a press conference may be a typical practice of organizations and media institutions. That is, local and more global contexts are fast related, and both employ constraints on discourse. Personal and social scholarship address users as social actors have both personal and social cognition personal memories, cognition and opinions, as well as those shared with members of the group or culture as a whole. Both types of cognition specify interaction and discourse of individual members, whereas shared social re presentments govern the in mergedd actions of a group. 1 1. 2 Power as nurse A central notion in most critical work on discourse is that of cause, and more specifically the social part of groups or institutions.Summarizing a intricate philosophical and social analysis, we will define social fountain in terms of crack condition. Thus, groups have Critical Discourse Analysis 355 (more or less) designer if they are able to (more or less) incorporate the acts and encephalons of (members of) other groups. This energy presupposes a king base of privileged access to scarce social resources, su ch as force, money, status, fame, knowledge, selective randomness, culture, or indeed various forms of domain discourse and communication (of the vast literature on place, see, e. . , Lukes 1986 Wrong 1979). Different types of power may be distinguished according to the various resources employed to exercise such power the coercive power of the military and of violent men will rather be based on force, the rich will have power because of their money, whereas the more or less persuasive power of parents, professors, or journalists may be based on knowledge, tuition, or authority. observation also that power is seldom absolute.Groups may more or less control other groups, or only control them in specific situations or social domains. Moreover, dominated groups may more or less resist, accept, condone, comply with, or legitimate such power, and tear down find it natural. The power of prevalent groups may be integrated in laws, rules, norms, habits, and dismantle a quite gener al consensus, and thus take the form of what Gramsci called hegemony (Gramsci 1971). Class domination, sexism, and racism are characteristic examples of such hegemony.Note also that power is not forever exercised in obviously abusive acts of possessive group members, nevertheless may be enacted in the myriad of taken-for-granted actions of cursory life, as is typically the case in the many forms of common sexism or racism (Essed 1991). Similarly, not all members of a tendinous group are invariably more hefty than all members of dominated groups power is only delimitate here for groups as a whole. For our analysis of the relations between discourse and power, thus, we first find that access to specific forms of discourse, e. . those of politics, the media, or science, is itself a power resource. Secondly, as suggested earlier, action is controlled by our minds. So, if we are able to baffle peoples minds, e. g. their knowledge or opinions, we indirectly may control (some of ) their actions, as we know from persuasion and habit. Closing the discoursepower circle, finally, this means that those groups who control most important discourse also have more chances to control the minds and actions of others.Simplifying these very intricate relationships even gain for this chapter, we can split up the issue of tangential power into ii basic questions for CDA research 1 How do (more) aright groups control public discourse? 2 How does such discourse control mind and action of (less) powerful groups, and what are the social consequences of such control, such as social inequality? I address each question below. 1. 2. 1 restrain of public discourseWe have seen that among many other resources that define the power base of a group or institution, access to or control over public discourse and communication is an important symbolic resource, as is the case for knowledge and information ( train Dijk 1996). Most people have active control only over everyday let loose with family members, friends, or colleagues, and passive control over, e. g. media usage. In many 356 Teun A. new wave Dijk situations, ordinary people are more or less passive targets of text or communion, e. g. f their bosses or teachers, or of the authorities, such as law of nature officers, judges, welfare bureaucrats, or impose inspectors, who may simply tell them what (not) to believe or what to do. On the other hand, members of more powerful social groups and institutions, and especially their leaders (the selecteds), have more or less exclusive access to, and control over, one or more types of public discourse. Thus, professors control scholarly discourse, teachers educational discourse, journalists media discourse, lawyers legal discourse, and politicians indemnity and other public semipolitical discourse.Those who have more control over more and more authoritative discourse (and more discourse properties) are by that definition also more powerful. In other words, we here propose a discursive definition (as well as a practical diagnostic) of one of the crucial constituents of social power. These notions of discourse access and control are very general, and it is one of the tasks of CDA to spell out these forms of power. Thus, if discourse is defined in terms of thickening communicatory events, access and control may be defined both for the context and for the structures of text and talk themselves.Context is defined as the psychologically represented structure of those properties of the social situation that are rele wagon traint for the production or cognition of discourse (Duranti and Goodwin 1992 wagon train Dijk 1998b). It consists of such categories as the overall definition of the situation, setting (time, postal service), ongoing actions (including discourses and discourse genres), participants in various communicative, social, or institutional roles, as well as their mental representations goals, knowledge, opinions, att itudes, and ideologies. Controlling context involves control over one or more of these categories, e. . determining the definition of the communicative situation, deciding on time and place of the communicative event, or on which participants may or must be present, and in which roles, or what knowledge or opinions they should (not) have, and which social actions may or must be accomplished by discourse. Also crucial in the enactment or exercise of group power is control not only over bailiwick, but over the structures of text and talk. Relating text and context, thus, we already saw that (members of) powerful groups may decide on the (possible) discourse genre(s) or speech acts of an occasion.A teacher or judge may require a direct answer from a student or fly-by-night, keepively, and not a personal story or an argument (Wodak 1984a, 1986). More critically, we may audition how powerful speakers may abuse their power in such situations, e. g. when police officers use force to ge t a confession from a suspect (Linell and Jonsson 1991), or when male editors exclude women from writing economic news (van Zoonen 1994). Similarly, genres typically have conventional schemas consisting of various categories. Access to some of these may be prohibited or obligatory, e. . some greetings in a conversation may only be used by speakers of a specific social group, rank, age, or gender (Irvine 1974). Also vital for all discourse and communication is who controls the topics (semantic macrostructures) and topic change, as when editors decide what news topics will be cover (Gans 1979 van Dijk 1988a, 1988b), professors decide what topics will be dealt with in class, or men control topics and topic change in conversations with women (Palmer 1989 Fishman 1983 Leet-Pellegrini 1980 Lindegren-Lerman 1983).Critical Discourse Analysis 357 Although most discourse control is contextual or global, even local details of meaning, form, or style may be controlled, e. g. the details of an a nswer in class or court, or choice of lexical items or bank in courtrooms, classrooms or newsrooms (Martin Rojo 1994). In many situations, volume may be controlled and speakers ordered to keep their voice down or to keep quiet, women may be silenced in many ways (Houston and Kramarae 1991), and in some cultures one needs to mumble as a form of respect (Albert 1972).The public use of specific words may be proscribed as subversive in a dictatorship, and discursive challenges to culturally dominant groups (e. g. white, western males) by their multicultural opponents may be ridiculed in the media as politically correct (Williams 1995). And finally, action and interaction dimensions of discourse may be controlled by prescribing or proscribing specific speech acts, and by selectively distributing or interrupting turns (see also Diamond 1996).In sum, virtually all levels and structures of context, text, and talk can in principle be more or less controlled by powerful speakers, and such power may be abused at the disbursal of other participants. It should, however, be stressed that talk and text do not always and directly enact or embody the overall power relations between groups it is always the context that may interfere with, reinforce, or otherwise transform such relationships. 1. 2. 2 Mind control If exacting discourse is a first major form of power, controlling peoples minds is the other fundamental way to reproduce dominance and hegemony. Within a CDA framework, mind control involves even more than just acquiring beliefs about the universe through discourse and communication. Suggested below are ways that power and dominance are involved in mind control. First, recipients tend to accept beliefs, knowledge, and opinions (unless they are inconsistent with their personal beliefs and experiences) through discourse from what they see as authoritative, trustworthy, or credible sources, such as scholars, experts, professionals, or reliable media (Nesler et al. 1993). Second, in some situations participants are obliged to be recipients of discourse, e. . in education and in many job situations. Lessons, learning materials, job instructions, and other discourse types in such cases may need to be attended to, interpreted, and learned as think by institutional or organizational authors (Giroux 1981). Third, in many situations there are no pubic discourses or media that may provide information from which alternative beliefs may be derived (Downing 1984). Fourth, and closely related to the previous caputs, recipients may not have the knowledge and beliefs needed to challenge the discourses or information they are exposed to (Wodak 1987).Whereas these conditions of mind control are more often than not contextual (they say something about the participants of a communicative event), other conditions are discursive, that is, a locomote of the structures and strategies of text or talk itself. In other words, given a specific context, certain mea nings and forms of discourse have more influence on peoples minds than others, as the very notion of persuasion and a tradition of 2000 years of rhetoric may manoeuver. Once we have elementary insight into some of the structures of the mind, and what it means to control it, the crucial question is how discourse and its structures are able 58 Teun A. van Dijk to exercise such control. As suggested above, such discursive influence may be due to context as well as to the structures of text and talk themselves. Contextually based control derives from the fact that people understand and represent not only text and talk, but also the whole communicative situation. Thus, CDA typically studies how context features (such as the properties of language users of powerful groups) influence the ways members of dominated groups define the communicative situation in preferred context models (Martin Rojo and van Dijk 1997).CDA also focuses on how discourse structures influence mental representatio ns. At the global level of discourse, topics may influence what people see as the most important information of text or talk, and thus correspond to the top levels of their mental models. For example, expressing such a topic in a headline in news may powerfully influence how an event is defined in terms of a preferred mental model (e. g. when crime committed by minorities is typically topicalized and headlined in the press Duin et al. 988 van Dijk 1991). Similarly, argumentation may be persuasive because of the social opinions that are hidden in its implicit expound and thus taken for granted by the recipients, e. g. immigration may thus be restricted if it is presupposed in a parliamentary debate that all refugees are illegal (see the contributions in Wodak and van Dijk 2000) Likewise, at the local level, in order to understand discourse meaning and coherence, people may need models featuring beliefs that remain implicit (presupposed) in discourse.Thus, a typical feature of manipu lation is to communicate beliefs implicitly, that is, without actually asserting them, and with less chance that they will be challenged. These few examples show how various types of discourse structure may influence the formation and change of mental models and social representations. If dominant groups, and especially their elects, largely control public discourse and its structures, they thus also have more control over the minds of the public at large. However, such control has its limits.The complexness of comprehension, and the formation and change of beliefs, are such that one cannot always telephone which features of a specific text or talk will have which effects on the minds of specific recipients. These brief remarks have provided us with a very general picture of how discourse is involved in dominance (power abuse) and in the production and reproduction of social inequality. It is the aim of CDA to examine these relationships in more detail. In the next section, we rev iew several areas of CDA research in which these relationships are investigated. 2 Research in Critical Discourse AnalysisAlthough most discourse studies dealing with any aspect of power, domination, and social inequality have not been explicitly conducted under the label of CDA, we shall nevertheless refer to some of these studies below. 2. 1 sexuality inequality One vast field of critical research on discourse and language that thus far has not been carried out within a CDA perspective is that of gender. In many ways, womens rightist Critical Discourse Analysis 359 work has become paradigmatic for much discourse analysis, especially since much of this work explicitly deals with social inequality and domination.We will not review it here see Kendall and Tannen, this volume also the track records authored and edited by, e. g. , Cameron (1990, 1992) Kotthoff and Wodak (1997) Seidel (1988) Thorne et al. (1983) Wodak (1997) for discussion and comparison with an approach that emphas izes cultural differences rather than power differences and inequality, see, e. g. , Tannen (1994a) see also Tannen (1994) for an analysis of gender differences at work, in which many of the properties of discursive dominance are dealt with. 2. 2 Media discourseThe undeniable power of the media has godlike many critical studies in many disciplines linguistics, semiotics, pragmatics, and discourse studies. Traditional, often content analytical approaches in critical media studies have revealed biased, stereotypical, sexist or racist images in texts, illustrations, and photos. Early studies of media language similarly focused on intimately observable surface structures, such as the biased or ally use of words in the description of Us and Them (and Our/Their actions and characteristics), especially along sociopolitical lines in the representation of communists.The critical tone was set by a series of baneful crudes studies by the Glasgow University Media Group (1976, 1980, 1982, 1 985, 1993) on features of TV reporting, such as in the coverage of various issues (e. g. industrial disputes (strikes), the Falklands (Malvinas) war, the media coverage of AIDS. ) Perhaps best known outside of discourse studies is the media research carried out by Stuart Hall and his associates within the framework of the cultural studies paradigm. ( try, e. g. , Hall et al. 1980 for adit to the critical work of cultural studies, see Agger 1992a see also collins et al. 986 for earlier critical approaches to the analysis of media images, see also Davis and Walton 1983 and for a later(prenominal) CDA approach to media studies that is related to the critical approach of cultural studies, see Fairclough 1995b. See also Cotter, this volume. ) An early collection of work of Roger Fowler and his associates (Fowler et al. 1979) also focused on the media. As with many other English and Australian studies in this paradigm, the theoretical framework of Hallidays functional-systemic grammar is used in a airfield of the transitivity of syntactic patterns of sentences (see Martin, this volume).The point of such research is that events and actions may be described with syntactic variations that are a function of the underlying involvement of actors (e. g. their agency, responsibility, and perspective). Thus, in an analysis of the media accounts of the riots during a minority festival, the responsibility of the authorities and especially of the police in such violence may be systematically de-emphasized by defocusing, e. g. by passive constructions and nominalizations that is, by leaving agency and responsibility implicit.Fowlers later critical studies of the media continue this tradition, but also pay tribute to the British cultural studies paradigm that defines news not as a reflection of reality, but as a product shaped by political, economic, and cultural forces (Fowler 1991). More than in much other critical work on the media, he also focuses on the linguistic tool s for such a critical demand, such as the analysis of transitivity in syntax, lexical structure, modality, and speech acts.Similarly van Dijk (1988b) applies a theory of news discourse (van Dijk 1988a) in 360 Teun A. van Dijk critical studies of international news, racism in the press, and the coverage of squatters in capital of The Netherlands. 2. 3 semipolitical discourse Given the role of political discourse in the enactment, reproduction, and legitimization of power and domination, we may also expect many critical discourse studies of political text and talk (see Wilson, this volume).So far most of this work has been carried out by linguists and discourse analysts, because political science is among the few social disciplines in which discourse analysis has remained virtually unknown, although there is some influence of postmodern approaches to discourse (Derian and Shapiro 1989 Fox and Miller 1995), and many studies of political communication and rhetoric intersection point with a discourse analytical approach (Nimmo and Sanders 1981).Still closer to discourse analysis is the current approach to frames (conceptual structures or sets of beliefs that organize political thought, policies, and discourse) in the analysis of political text and talk (Gamson 1992). In linguistics, pragmatics, and discourse studies, political discourse has received attention outside the more theoretical mainstream. Seminal work comes from Paul Chilton see, e. g. , his collection on the language of the nuclear arms debate (Chilton 1985), as well as later work on coetaneous nukespeak (Chilton 1988) and metaphor (Chilton 1996 Chilton and Lakoff 1995).Although studies of political discourse in English are internationally best known because of the hegemony of English, much work has been done (often earlier, and often more systematic and explicit) in German, Spanish, and French. This work is too great to even take off to review here beyond naming a few influential studies. Germany has a long tradition of political discourse analysis, both (then) in the West (e. g. about Bonns politicians by Zimmermann 1969), as well as in the former East (e. g. he semiotic-materialist theory of Klaus 1971) (see also the introduction by Bachem 1979). This tradition in Germany witnessed a study of the language of war and love-in-idleness (Pasierbsky 1983) and of speech acts in political discourse (Holly 1990). There is also a strong tradition of studying fascist language and discourse (e. g. the lexicon, propaganda, media, and language politics Ehlich 1989). In France, the study of political language has a solid tradition in linguistics and discourse analysis, also because the barrier between (mostly structuralist) inguistic theory and text analysis was never very pronounced. Discourse studies are often corpus-based and there has been a strong tendency toward formal, quantitative, and automatic (content) analysis of such big datasets, often unite with critical ideological an alysis (Pecheux 1969, 1982 Guespin 1976). The emphasis on automated analysis usually implies a focus on (easily quantifiable) lexical analyses (see Stubbs, this volume).Critical political discourse studies in Spain and especially also in Latin America has been very productive. Famous is the early critical semiotic (anticolonialist) study of Donald Duck by Dorfman and Mattelart (1972) in Chile. Lavandera et al. (1986, 1987) in genus Argentina take an influential sociolinguistic approach to political discourse, e. g. its typology of authoritarian discourse. start of this group has been continued and organized in a more explicit CDA framework especially by Pardo (see, e. g. her work Critical Discourse Analysis 361 on legal discourse Pardo 1996). In Mexico, a elaborate ethnographic discourse analysis of local authority and decision-making was carried out by sierra (1992). Among the many other critical studies in Latin America, we should mention the extensive work of Teresa CarbO on par liamentary discourse in Mexico, focusing especially on the way delegates speak about native Americans (CarbO 1995), with a study in English on interruptions in these debates (CarbO 1992). . 4 Ethnocentrism, antisemitism, nationalism, and racism The study of the role of discourse in the enactment and reproduction of cultural and racial inequality has slowly emerged in CDA. Traditionally, such work focused on ethnocentric and racist representations in the mass media, literature, and film (Dines and Humez 1995 UNESCO 1977 Wilson and Gutierrez 1985 Hartmann and Husband 1974 van Dijk 1991).Such representations continue centuries-old dominant images of the Other in the discourses of European travelers, explorers, merchants, soldiers, philosophers, and historians, among other forms of elite discourse (Barker 1978 Lauren 1988). Fluctuating between the emphasis on exotic difference, on the one hand, and supremacist derogation stressing the Others intellectual, moral, and biological inferior ity, on the other hand, such discourses also influenced public opinion and led to broadly shared social representations.It is the continuity of this sociocultural tradition of negative images about the Other that also partially explains the persistence of dominant patterns of representation in contemporary discourse, media, and film (Shohat and Stam 1994). afterward discourse studies have gone beyond the more traditional, content analytical analysis of images of the Others, and probed more deeply into the linguistic, semiotic, and other discursive properties of text and talk to and about minorities, immigrants, and Other peoples (for detailed review, see Wodak and Reisigl, this volume). to a fault the mass media, advertising, film, and textbooks, which were (and still are) the genres most commonly studied, this newer work also focuses on political discourse, scholarly discourse, everyday conversations, service encounters, talk shows, and a host of other genres. Many studies on eth nic and racial inequality reveal a remarkable law of similarity among the stereotypes, prejudices, and other forms of verbal derogation across discourse types, media, and national boundaries.For example, in a vast research program carried out at the University of Amsterdam since the early 1980s, we examined how Surinamese, Turks, and Moroccans, and ethnic relations generally, are represented in conversation, everyday stories, news reports, textbooks, parliamentary debates, corporate discourse, and scholarly text and talk (van Dijk 1984, 1987a, 1987b, 1991, 1993). Besides stereotypical topics of difference, deviation, and threat, story structures, conversational features (such as hesitations and repairs in mentioning Others), semantic moves such as disclaimers (We have nothing against blacks, but . . . , and so on ), lexical description of Others, and a host of other discourse features also were studied. The aim of these projects was to show how discourse expresses and reproduces un derlying social representations of Others in the social and political context. Ter Wal (1997) applies this framework in a detailed study of the ways Italian political and media discourse gradually changed, from an antiracist commitment and benign representation 362 Teun A. van Dijk of the extracommunitari (non-Europeans) to a more stereotypical and negative por- trayal of immigrants in terms of crime, deflexion, and threat. The major point f our work is that racism (including antisemitism, xenophobia, and related forms of resentment against racially or ethnically defined Others) is a complex system of social and political inequality that is also reproduced by discourse in general, and by elite discourses in particular (see besides references in Wodak and Reisigl, this volume). Instead of further elaborating the complex details of the theoretical relationships between discourse and racism, we shall refer to a book that may be taken as a prototype of fusty elite discourse on race t oday, namely, The End of Racism by Dinesh DSouza (1995).This text embodies many of the dominant ideologies in the USA, especially on the right, and it specifically targets one minority group in the USA African Americans. quad prohibits detailed analysis of this 700-page book (but see van Dijk 1998a). Here we can merely summarize how the CDA of DSouzas The End of Racism shows what kind of discursive structures, strategies, and moves are deployed in exercising the power of the dominant (white, western, male) group, and how readers are manipulated to form or confirm the social representations that are consistent with a conservative, supremacist ideology.The overall schema of DSouzas The End of Racism is the combined implementation, at all levels of the text, of the positive presentation of the in-group and the negative presentation of the out-group. In DSouzas book, the principal rhetorical means are those of hyperbole and metaphor, viz. , the exaggerated representation of social pro blems in terms of illness (pathologies, virus), and the emphasis of the contrast between the Civilized and the Barbarians. semantically and lexically, the Others are thus associated not simply with difference, but rather with deviance (illegitimacy) and threat (violence, attacks).Argumentative assertions of the depravity of black culture are combined with denials of white deficiencies (racism), with rhetorical mitigation and euphemization of its crimes (colonialism, slavery), and with semantic reversals of blame (blaming the victim). brotherly passage of arms is thus cognitively represented and enhanced by polarization, and discursively preserve and reproduced by derogating, demonizing, and excluding the Others from the community of Us, the Civilized. 2. From group domination to professional and institutional power We have reviewed in this section critical studies of the role of discourse in the (re)production inequality. Such studies characteristically exemplify the CDA perspect ive on power abuse and dominance by specific social groups. Many other studies, whether under the CDA banner or not, also critically examine various genres of institutional and professional discourse, e. g. text and talk in the courtroom (see Shuy, this volume Danet 1984 OBarr et al. 978 Bradac et al. 1981 Ng and Bradac 1993 Lakoff 1990 Wodak 1984a Pardo 1996 Shuy 1992), bureaucratic discourse (Burton and Carlen 1979 Radtke 1981), medical discourse (see Ainsworth-Vaughn and Fleischman, this volume Davis 1988 fisherman 1995 Fisher and Todd 1986 Mishler 1984 West 1984 Wodak 1996), educational and scholarly discourse (Aronowitz 1988 Critical Discourse Analysis 363 Apple 1979 Bourdieu 1984, 1989 Bernstein 1975, 1990 Bourdieu et al. 1994 Giroux 1981 Willis 1977 Atkinson et al. 995 Coulthard 1994 Duszak 1997 Fisher and Todd 1986 Mercer 1995 Wodak 1996 Bergvall and Remlinger 1996 Ferree and Hall 1996 Jaworski 1983 Leimdorfer 1992 Osler 1994 Said 1979 Smith 1991 van Dijk 1987, 1993), and corporate discourse (see Linde, this volume Mumby 1988 Boden 1994 Drew and Heritage 1992 Ehlich 1995 Mumby 1993 Mumby and Clair 1997), among many other sets of genres. In all these cases, power and dominance are associated with specific social domains (politics, media, law, education, science, etc. , their professional elites and institutions, and the rules and routines that form the background of the everyday discursive reproduction of power in such domains and institutions. The victims or targets of such power are usually the public or citizens at large, the masses, clients, subjects, the audience, students, and other groups that are dependent on institutional and organizational power. 3 Conclusion We have seen in this chapter that critical discourse analyses deal with the relationship between discourse and power.We have also sketched the complex theoretical framework needed to analyze discourse and power, and provided a glimpse of the many ways in which power and domination are r eproduced by text and talk. Yet several methodological and theoretical gaps remain. First, the cognitive interface between discourse structures and those of the local and global social context is seldom made explicit, and appears usually only in terms of the notions of knowledge and ideology (van Dijk 1998).Thus, despite a large number of empirical studies on discourse and power, the details of the multidisciplinary theory of CDA that should relate discourse and action with cognition and society are still on the agenda. Second, there is still a gap between more linguistically oriented studies of text and talk and the various approaches in the social. The first often ignore concepts and theories in sociology and political science on power abuse and inequality, whereas the second seldom engage in detailed discourse analysis. Integration of various approaches is therefore very important to arrive at a satisfactory form of multidisciplinary CDA.NOTES I am indebted to Ruth Wodak for her comments on an earlier version of this chapter, and to Laura Pardo for further information, about CDA research in Latin America. 1 It comes as no surprise, then, that CDA research will often refer to the leading social philosophers and social scientists of our time when theorizing these and other fundamental notions. Thus, reference to the leading scholars of the capital of Kentuckyer School and to contemporary work by Habermas (for instance, on legitimation and his finale discourse approach to norms and democracy) is of course common in critical analysis. Similarly, many critical studies will refer to Foucault 64 Teun A. van Dijk when dealing with notions such as power, domination, and discipline or the more philosophical notion of orders of discourse. More recently, the many studies on language, culture, and society by Bourdieu have become increasingly influential for instance, his notion of habitus. From another sociological perspective, Giddenss structuration theory is now oc casionally mentioned. It should be borne in mind that although several of these social philosophers and sociologists make extensive use of the notions of language and discourse, they seldom engage in explicit, systematic discourse analysis.Indeed, the last thing critical discourse scholars should do is to uncritically adopt philosophical or sociological ideas about language and discourse that are obviously uninformed by advances in contemporary linguistics and discourse analysis. Rather, the work referred to here is mainly relevant for the use of fundamental concepts about the social order and hence for the metatheory of CDA. 2 Space limitations prevent discussion of a third issue how dominated groups discursively challenge or resist the control of powerful groups. 3 Note that mind control is merely a handy phrase to summarize a very complex process.Cognitive psychology and mass communication research have shown that influencing the mind is not as straightforward a process as simpli stic ideas about mind control might suggest (Britton and Graesser 1996 Glasser and Salmon 1995 Klapper 1960 van Dijk and Kintsch 1983). Recipients may vary in their rendering and uses of text and talk, also as a function of class, gender, or culture (Liebes and Katz 1990). Likewise, recipients seldom passively accept the intend opinions of specific discourses. However, we should not forget that most of our beliefs about the world are acquired through discourse. In order to analyze the complex processes involved in how discourse may control peoples minds, we would need to spell out the detailed mental representations and cognitive operations studied in cognitive science. Since even an adequate summary is beyond the scope of this chapter, we will only in brief introduce a few notions that are necessary to understand the processes of discursive mind control (for details, see, e. g. , Graesser and Bower 1990 van Dijk and Kintsch 1983 van Oostendorp and Zwaan 1994 Weaver et al. 1995). 5 Note that the picture just sketched is very schematic and general.The relations between the social power of groups and institutions, on the one hand, and discourse on the other, as well as between discourse and cognition, and cognition and society, are vastly more complex. There are many contradictions. There is not always a clear picture of one dominant group (or class or institution) oppressing another one, controlling all public discourse, and such discourse directly controlling the mind of the dominated. There are many forms of collusion, consensus, legitimation, and even joint production of forms of inequality.Members of dominant groups may become dissidents and side with dominated groups, and vice versa. Opponent discourses may be adopted by dominant groups, whether strategically to neutralize them, or simply because dominant power and ideologies may change, as is for instance quite obvious in ecological discourse and ideology. 6 Unfortunately, the study of the discursive r eproduction of class has been rather overlook in this perspective for a related approach, though, see Willis (1977).
