Voices in discourses: Dialogism, Critical Discourse Analysis and ethnic identity

2006

In this article we attempt to combine the Bakhtinian, dialogical philosophy of language and critical discourse analysis (CDA) with our analysis of ethnic identity. The data we discuss are an interview with a Sami journalist who works in the Sami media. We analyse the interview from the points of view of dialogism and CDA to illustrate how identity must be understood as something which is both individual and social in nature.  We reject the earlier essentialist interpretations of identity which see it as purely individual and psychological in nature. At the same time, we argue that those views of identity that see it as exclusively socially constructed can be misleading as well. We aim to il…

Identidad social y discursiva del turista: su construcción a partir de la oferta de valores abstractos

2017

Este artículo examina cómo la página web hotelera mercantiliza valores simbólicos abstractos, y de qué manera ello incide en la construcción discursiva de un actor social 'turista'. Para ello se propone un análisis cualitativo desde el marco del Análisis Crítico del Discurso, concretamente desde la vertiente socio-cultural de Fairclough (2002), que a su vez parte del sistema de transitividad de Halliday (1985). Considerar la mercantilización de los valores abstractos resulta interesante en este contexto, pues se podría pensar que los hoteles ofrecen ante todo valores de tipo concreto y material, y no abstracto. Sin embargo, la representación mental de lo placentero y deseable en el turista,…

Representation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in American newspapers

2015

Israelin ja Palestiinan välinen kiista maa-alueesta on johtanut yhteen modernin historian pitkittyneimmistä ja väkivaltaisimmista konflikteista. Kesäkuussa 2014 väkivaltaisuudet leimahtivat jälleen Gazassa, ja siviiliuhrien määrä oli suurin lähes 50 vuoteen. Tapahtumat saivat runsasta mediahuomiota ympäri maailman. Konfliktin uutisointi on ollut usean akateemisen tutkielman kohteena, ja monissa tapauksissa se on havaittu jossain määrin puolueelliseksi. Näihin lukeutuu esimerkiksi Aziza Zaherin kriittinen diskurssintutkimus länsimaisista ja arabilehdistä. Analyysi sanastosta, narratiiveista sekä transitiivisuudesta näytti, että uutisointi ei ollut puolueetonta ja ennakkoluulotonta, toisin ku…

Object, problem, or subject?: A child with a disability as found in reports of professionals

2009

This study examined the representations of one Finnish child with disabilities as constructed in reports written by professionals. The professional action models which appeared in the discourse of the reports were also explored. The theoretical framework of the study was based on the social constructionist approach. Research data consisted of 145 documents, the analyses of which were based on critical discourse analysis developed by Fairclough (1992). Results indicated that the child with a disability was constructed in the documents in varying ways, either as an object, a problem, or a subject Professional expertise, mechanistic and objectivist practices, and seeing disability as an indivi…

Institutionalization and Depoliticization of the Right to the City: Changing Scenarios for Radical Social Movements

2016

The right to the city, a concept previously associated with radical social movements, has been accepted by several governments and has inspired new public policies. However, some authors see this process of institutionalization as involving a loss of a significant part of the radical origins of the concept. This article approaches this process and the new opportunities and limitations it may entail for social movement organizations with a more radical perspective on the right to the city. We explore the paradigmatic case of Brazil and the action of a particular organization, the Movimento dos Sem Teto da Bahia (MSTB, or Homeless Movement of Bahia) in the city of Salvador. We draw on the dis…

There's A Ghost In Every Mirror: The Identity of the Ghost In Hamlet

2009

 Tutkielmassani käsittelen William Shakespearean näytelmän Hamlet keskeisen hahmon, Haamun, identiteettiä katolisessa ja protestanttisessa teologiassa eriävän kiirastuliopin kautta avautuvana ristiriitana. Tulkitsen Haamun hahmoa perinteistä skeptisemmästä näkökulmasta, jonka pohjalta pyrin löytämään tekstistä viitteitä siihen, että Haamun identiteetti ei missään vaiheessa ole suoraan johdettavissa siihen perinteiseen tulkintaan, jonka mukaan se olisi Hamletin isä. Pyrin valottamaan jo 1500-luvun lopulla Englannissa vaikuttaneen protestanttisen maailmankuvan valossa teoksen kuvauksia Haamun alkuperästä sekä analysoimaan, millä tavalla sen kanssa tekemisissä olevat henkilöhahmot siihen reago…

The reinvention of authenticity in the context of neoliberal commodification

2014

Desde las últimas décadas del siglo pasado, la constatación empírica de que los límites naturales al crecimiento estaban siendo traspasados (García, 2004) supuso un incremento de la conciencia medioambiental y dio lugar a la búsqueda de respuestas de distinto tipo. El concepto de 'Parque Natural', como un intento de preservar determinados espacios, se inscribe en este contexto. En su versión neoliberal dicha preservación no implica ninguna modificación sustantiva de las reglas que impone el desarrollo económico capitalista. De este modo, se convierte en una aplicación del binomio "desarrollo sostenible", un oxímoron (Latouche, 2006) donde se yuxtaponen dos significados contrapuestos, a sabe…

Marginacions d’ahir i d’avui: drets humans i discursos discriminatoris a la pel·lícula También la lluvia

2020

Resum: Al present article s’analitza la pel·lícula También la lluvia, una bona mostra de com també el cine «pel gran públic» pot contribuir, a través de les seves representacions, a conscienciar els espectadors; en aquest cas, sobre temes com el genocidi indígena a l’edat moderna, la històrica marginació dels pobles indígenes d’Amèrica Llatina i el dret a l’aigua que hom posa en discussió arreu del món. S’hi destaca, especialment, el racisme inherent als discursos de les elits que estan reproduïts a la pel·lícula i que són una bona mostra –dins del codi realista de También la lluvia– d’idees i d’un llenguatge prou difós.
