Rechtslinguistik, « sémantique juridique » et « analyse du discours institutionnel » : positions, méthodes et enjeux

2017

International audience; L’objectif de ce papier est triple : il s’agit tout d’abord de présenter dans le contexte de recherche francophone le paradigme de la linguistique du droit / linguistique juridique (Rechtslinguistik) tel qu’il s’est développé dans l’espace allemand. Il s’agit ensuite, au niveau épistémologique, de voir comment celui-ci peut s’articuler avec d’une part les approches subsumées sous l’étiquette de « jurilinguistique » et d’autre part avec l’analyse du discours à la française, en particulier l’analyse du discours institutionnel. Le troisième objectif est d’ordre méthodologique et vise à discuter les modalités de (re)construction du sens des concepts juridiques à l’aide d…

Traduire le flou, même en droit ? Les composantes sémantiques et pragmatiques du texte juridique en vue de sa traduction

2018

La conférence trouve classiquement son point de départ dans les liens intrinsèques entre le droit et la langue. Instanciés au niveau terminologique, ils conduisent à présenter la terminologie juridique comme n’étant soluble que dans un système et un contexte juridiques donnés, et définissent la traduction juridique comme reposant sur une comparaison et une traduction des systèmes conceptuels sous-jacents. Dans ce contexte, la reconnaissance de « standards juridiques », entendus comme concepts indéterminés a priori (Bernard, 2010) est venue troubler cette mécanique bien huilée : le principe de subsidiarité (Joyeux, 2016) en est un exemple de premier plan.Il s’agira donc, à partir de la discu…

Language Mediation and Aspects of Accommodation in the Use of ELF

2014

There are numerous varieties of English spoken in Italy today, each repre-sented by one or more of the various migrant communities living in the country. These manifestations of World englishes reflect a wide range of lexical, syntactical, phonetic, pragmatic, interpersonal and cultural features. This paper argues that an interpreter or language mediator trained in standard English may not necessarily be able to comprehend or make him/herself understood adequately in other varieties of English. Thus, the recruitment of mediators/interpreters requires a certain amount of caution in terms of language choice. In order to investigate intelligibility, comprehensibility and accommodation in the c…

Striving at partnership: parent–practitioner relationships in Finnish early educators' talk

2010

ABSTRACT In Finnish early childhood education and care, partnership has been introduced as a general approach in the parent–practitioner collaboration. Based on qualitative interviews with practitioners, the article studies, from a social constructionist and discourse analytic perspective, whether partnership is actualised in parent–practitioner relationship and how it is done. The results show that the ideas about parent–practitioner collaboration are not coherent. In the vertical frame the collaboration is considered as a hierarchical relationship but in the horizontal frame, which reflects the partnership approach, parallel expertise and proximity are emphasised. However, the ideal of pa…

Bilingual children as policy agents : Language policy and education policy in minority language medium Early Childhood Education and Care

2017

AbstractThe current study examines bilingual children as language policy agents in the interplay between official language policy and education policy at three Swedish-medium preschools in Finland. For this purpose we monitored nine Finnish-Swedish bilingual children aged 3 to 5 years for 18 months. The preschools were located in three different parts of Finland, in milieux with varying degrees of language dominance. The children were video recorded during their normal daytime routines in early childhood education and care. Three types of communicative situations were analyzed: an educator-led small group activity, free play with friends, and an activity in which one child was playing alone…

Documents in Interaction: A Case Study on Parent–Teacher Meetings (ECEC)

2020

Whilst the quality of early childhood education and care (ECEC) is being monitored increasingly closely, various documentation methods and practices that aim at recording and assessing children’s advancement and activities have expanded in ECEC. The research on the impact of such documentation methods on grassroots-level practices is however currently scarce. This chapter illuminates the role of a specific documentation method—that is, a child’s ECEC plan—in parent–teacher meetings in Finnish ECEC. This plan was implemented as a means to increase pedagogical quality of ECEC in Finland. The chapter considers the ECEC plan a participant during parent–teacher meetings and, by applying discursi…

Language Education Policies and Early Childhood Education

2020

This chapter discusses the importance of different types of early language education in the public system according to national policy in two geopolitical contexts: Continental Northern Europe and the UK. We define early language education policy as the language policies in early childhood education (ECE) including planning, practices, and ideologies related to the teaching and learning of languages. We present a variety of theoretical approaches and discuss their applicability to the field of early language education research. These approaches include traditional top-down policy implementation models as well as more dynamic and ecological theoretical approaches. Following that, we look at …

Privilege or tragedy? : Educators’ accounts of flexibly scheduled early childhood education and care

2017

This article explores accounts given by Finnish educators ( n = 31) on the topic of flexibly scheduled early childhood education and care (i.e. childcare provided during non-standard as well as standard hours). Previous research has shown this to be a sensitive topic because of the contradiction between what is deemed in the interests of children and the fact of providing childcare during non-standard hours. The research follows the principles of discursive psychology. Educators’ accounts were labelled as excusing, compensating, normalising and justifying. Accounts categorised as excusing and compensating shared concern over the effects of childcare during non-standard hours on children’s w…
