Lingüística perceptiva y conversación: secuencias
1993
Se presenta la organización de las secuencias conversacionales a partir del modelo teórico de la lingüística cognitiva-perceptiva. Junto a a las secuencias de apertura y cierre conversacional (Secuencias marco), los cuatro niveles identificados por la teoría perceptiva (rección, concordancia, orden y énfasis) permiten identificar cuatro tipos fundamentales de secuencia conversacional (secuencias de historia, de concordancia, lineales y de inserción).

Critical discourse analysis of the representation of victims and perpetrators of sexual violence in select US news articles

Rikoksista uutisoidaan sanomalehdissä päivittäin. Uutisointi on merkittävä tekijä liittyen siihen, minkälainen kuva ihmisillä on rikosten uhreista, tekijöistä, ja rikollisuudesta ylipäänsä. Aiemmat tutkimukset ovat näyttäneet, että seksuaalirikoksista uutisoidessa käytetään usein niin kutsuttuja raiskausmyyttejä, jotka ovat stereotyyppisiä ja osin virheellisiäkin toistuvia tapoja kuvata niin seksuaalirikosten uhreja kuin tekijöitäkin. Tässä kandidaatintutkielmassa perehdyn kuuden yhdysvaltalaisen uutisartikkelin pohjalta siihen, miten seksuaalirikosten uhreja ja tekijöitä kuvataan, sekä siihen, mitä muita toistuvia diskursseja artikkeleista mahdollisesti nousee esille. Artikkelit ovat peräi…
Double Marginalized Lives as Woman and as Refugee: Syrian Female Refugees in Ankara
2020
Este tesis establece cómo las refugiadas sirias son social, económica, cultural, étnica y sexualmente marginadas y lo que piensan acerca de los eventos en curso, su estado y los pasos que el gobierno y las ONGs han tomado hasta ahora para dar soluciones a la invisibilización de las mujeres en la esfera pública. Para ello, he llevado a cabo esta investigación en los suburbios de Ankara con un grupo de refugiadas sirias que están socialmente excluidas como “mujer'” y como “refugiada” y con un grupo de mujeres locales. La atención se centrará en la relación entre los discursos producidos en la sociedad de acogida y la exclusión social de las refugiadas sirias. Cabe señalar que la fuente de los…
“Nice to get to know you” : Social presence in virtual exchange discourse
2020
Virtual exchange comprises online collaborative activities in facilitated, educational contexts across borders. This paper offers a multimodal approach to the study of social presence in students’ asynchronous online discourse in the context of virtual exchange. It draws on the Community of Inquiry model of online learning (Garrison 2017) and interprets social presence as the dynamic discursive process of social interaction and self-presentation. The data consists of screenshots collected in a closed Facebook group during the first assignment of a Czech-Finnish virtual exchange project in 2017. The study aims to explore how the method of multimodal discourse analysis can be used to describe…
Hierarchies of knowledge, incommensurabilities and silences in South African ECD policy: Whose knowledge counts?
2017
AbstractPolicy for young children in South Africa is now receiving high-level government support through the ANC’s renewed commitment to redress poverty and inequity and creating ‘a better life for all’ as promised before the 1994 election. In this article, I explore the power relations, knowledge hierarchies and discourses of childhood, family and society in National Curriculum Framework (NCF) as it relates to children’s everyday contexts. I throw light on how the curriculum’s discourses relate to the diverse South African settings, child rearing practices and world-views, and how they interact with normative discourses of South African policy and global early childhood frameworks. The NCF…

Victims, villains or organized community? : discrimination, social exclusion and empowerment in the media representation of urban poverty : case of b…
2012
The purpose of this thesis is to study the media representation of urban poverty in a developing country context, focusing specifically on the connections between media representation and social exclusion. The theoretical-methodological basis of this work draws from critical cultural studies and sociological media research, specifically from the theoretical assumptions of critical discourse analysis about media representation. The premise is the constructionist view that the media does not directly reflect the reality of urban poverty, but constructs journalist reproductions of it from a particular perspective and in a certain social context. Media representation of the subordinated groups …
