Sharing the notion of identity as a dynamic construct within social interaction (cf. Kresic 2006; Mead 1968; Tajfel 1978), the paper traces the strategic manoeuvers by which far and extreme right users try to obtain opinion leadership in online debates. Based on the concept of "communities of practice" (cf. Wenger 2010, 2000, 1998; Wenger/McDermott/Snyder 2002; Lave/Wenger 1991), the qualitative as well as quantitative analysis of 1047 user comments combines conversation analytic approaches to identity construction (cf. a. o. De Fina/Shiffrin/Bamberg 2006; Bucholtz/Hall 2005, 2003) with typical far and extreme right argumentation schemes specified by critical discourse analysis (cf. a. o. Reisigl/Wodak 2001; Wetherell/Potter 1992; Wodak et al. 1990; van Dijk 1987). The results show that within far and extreme right communities of practice, differing comments are no longer seen as legitimate contribution to the debate, but are considered as personal lack of understanding and, ultimately, as proof of the opponent's intellectual inadequacy.

The de-construction of credibility in online-debatesSharing the notion of credibility as a dynamic construct within interaction, the paper traces the argumentative manoeuvers by which left- and right-wing users try to de-construct credibility within online-debates.

Abstract This article presents an analysis of the evolution of Russia’s image representation in Georgian and Ukrainian political discourses amid Russian-Georgian and Russian-Ukrainian conflicts escalation. Even though Georgia’s and Ukraine’s troubled relations with neighboring Russia have been extensively studied, there has been little attention to the ideational dimensions of the confrontations, manifested in elite narratives, that would redraw the discursive boundaries between “Us” and “Them.” This study represents an attempt to fill the void, by examining the core narratives of the enemy, along with the discursive strategies of its othering in Georgian and Ukrainian presidential discourses through critical discourse analysis. The findings suggest that the image of the enemy has become a part of “New Georgia’s” and “New Ukraine’s” identity construction - inherently linked to the two countries’ “choice for Europe.” Russia has been largely framed as Europe’s other, with its “inherently imperial,” “irremediably aggressive” nature and adherence to illiberal, non-democratic values. The axiological and moral evaluations have been accompanied by the claims that the most effective way of standing up to the enemy’s aggression is the “consolidation of democratic nations,” coming down to the two countries’ quests for EU and NATO membership.

Αντικείμενο της διατριβής αποτελεί η μελέτη της γλωσσικής διδασκαλίας σε μία τάξη Α΄ Δημοτικού και η ανάδειξη των ποικίλων λόγων (discourses) που τη διαμόρφωσαν. Με δεδομένο το γεγονός ότι εκτός από ερευνήτρια ήμουν και η εκπαιδευτικός της τάξης, η έρευνα αφορούσε την ανάλυση και των δικών μου διδακτικών επιλογών (κριτική αυτοεθνογραφία), οι οποίες συνδέονται τόσο με τη διδακτική μου εμπειρία όσο και με ποικίλες άλλες παραμέτρους. Προσεγγίζω τη διδασκαλία όχι ως μια τεχνική υπόθεση που συμβαίνει σε κοινωνικοπολιτισμικό κενό, αλλά από μια πολυπαραγοντική διάσταση, εντάσσοντας στη μελέτη της το κοινωνικό και πολιτισμικό συγκείμενο, αναδεικνύοντας τη συνθετότητά της. Η σύλληψη της γλωσσικής διδασκαλίας ως πολυπαραγοντικής και δυναμικής διαδικασίας προσδιόρισε σε σημαντικό βαθμό τις θεωρητικές και μεθοδολογικές μου επιλογές. Αξιοποιώ παραδόσεις από τον χώρο της Κοινωνικής Σημειωτικής (Social Semiotics), της Κριτικής Ανάλυσης Σχολικού Λόγου (Critical Discourse Analysis) και των Κοινοτήτων Πρακτικής (Communities of Practice). Στο πλαίσιο αυτό αναλύω τη διδασκαλία ως μακροκείμενο και ως μια συγκεκριμένη μορφή κοινωνικής πρακτικής, όπου αναζητώ τη σύνδεσή της με τις ταυτότητες των κοινωνικών πρωταγωνιστών καθώς και με το στενό και ευρύτερο συγκειμενικό πλαίσιο. Οι αναλύσεις του σχολικού χώρου, των διδακτικών μακροκειμένων και των διδακτικών συμβάντων ανέδειξαν ποικίλες όψεις του γραμματισμού που καλλιεργήθηκε και επηρέασε την εγγράμματη εμπειρία των παιδιών. Ανέδειξαν επίσης την πολυπλοκότητα της διδασκαλίας που συγκροτήθηκε, η οποία οφείλεται σε ποικίλες και διαφορετικές παραμέτρους που σχετίζονταν με εμένα ως διδάσκουσα, τα παιδιά, τους γονείς αλλά και την ισχύουσα στην ελληνική εκπαίδευση και στο συγκεκριμένο σχολείο πραγματικότητα. Από την έρευνα προκύπτει ότι κάθε πρόταση σχολικού γραμματισμού δεν αποτελεί μια ουδέτερη διαδικασία μεταβίβασης γνώσεων και κατάκτησης δεξιοτήτων αλλά ένα ιδεολογικό και βαθύτατα πολιτικό ζήτημα.

Generally, language experts believe that there are inherent ideologies in language use. The aspect of discourse study that discloses such ideologies is known as Critical Discourse Study (CDA). This paper seeks to exhume the various inherent ideologies that presuppose selected news reports on the Nigeria’s 2019 General Elections in Nigerian newspapers. This study is, however, corpus-based. Scholars have established that discourse is a kind of constructively conditioned public exercise. They believe that power relations exist at different levels of daily social interaction; revealing superiority or inferiority of interlocutors involved. News reports relating to the General Elections were electronically collated from the various newspaper platforms for a sizable language corpus. The name Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was selected and analysed purposively with the aid of Digital Humanities (DH) tool to observe the frequency of the acronym INEC and the textual context in which it occurs in five newspapers’ reports about the electoral body via the authority it gives; the warning it issues, and the appeal it makes to the stakeholders. The paper finds out that the negative perceptions of many observers about the elections have actually been predicted by the various reports in the newspapers, prior to the elections. The paper concludes that reporters of news items do not account for issues concerning electoral body with the same constructive and destructive dispositions; and this gives room for subjectivity and prejudice.

The analysis on the vocabulary found in HKI is emphasized on : (1) the vocabulary as a key words, (2) the usage of pronouns, and (3) rhetorical language’s style. Self-identification on Seratus HKI Kompas TV is relevant with the slogan of Kompas TV inspiring Indonesia by enlighting people and as a documentary journey that insert the national ideology.

Abstract Integrated university programs for deaf and hearing sign language interpreting students are rare. In Finland, deaf interpreting students have been integrated in the only university program for sign language interpreting since its beginning in the early 2000s. This article investigates the experiences of the deaf interpreting students and deaf sign language interpreters (n = 5) who attend and have attended the program. We analyzed interview responses using critical discourse analysis and the concept of identity construction, and found that deaf interpreting students, despite some disadvantages, benefited from the integrated program. We also found three identity positions – competent deaf identity, student identity, and professional DI identity – and support for recognition (Honneth 1996) in both the solidarity and legal sphere developed through the program.
