In this paper we investigate how the model of deliberation proposed by Isabela and Norman Fairclough can be used for a better clarification and understanding of the framing processes in media – especially in opinion articles. We thus aim at integrating theoretical contributions from critical discourse analysis and argumentation theory with standard approaches to framing, originating in media studies. We emphasize how a rhetorical approach to framing can provide analytical insights into framing processes and complement the typical quantitative approaches with qualitative analysis based on textual reconstruction. Starting from an issue-specific approach to framing, we discuss a particular case of framing of intra-EU migration, analyzing four opinion articles selected from a larger corpus of Romanian, British and French media. We highlight, along our analysis, various methodological options and analytical difficulties inherent to such an approach.

This article arises from a biographical qualitative approach with students in situation of socio-cultural disadvantage who suffer academic failure. Its aim is to explore the language used by these children from the perspective of critical discourse analysis, as well as to analyze the linguistic strategies chosen in representing social actors and actions, and linguistic-discursive features. In addition, speakers create a more strengthened discourse of their own group from a semiotic perspective, as opposed to the hierarchy and depersonalization in their relationships with the educational institutions. The distance between the language of school requests and the language they use within their primary groups favors failure and isolation.

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. Based on the concept of “Community of Practice”, the qualitative analysis combines cognitive as well as conversation analytic approaches to identity construction with typical far and extreme right argumentation schemes specified by critical discourse analysis.

With the rise in the spate of deaths in America and the failure of Trump in containing coronavirus pandemic, the president is losing his hopes of winning the coming presidential election. Amidst Trump’s confusion, Covid-19 becomes a pre-text in his political rhetoric in an attempt to blame China for the pandemic, raise tension between U.S. and Beijing, and regain credibility from the public. Accordingly, the research paper aims to explore how Trump’s outrageous language unveils his ideological hegemony and contributes to the spread of xenophobia towards China. A multidisciplinary qualitative analysis was adopted to analyze one of Trump’s blunt political discourse. The analysis was based on Fairclough and Van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) model, along with Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) Model. The findings of the study are significant in raising the public’s awareness of the manipulative social function of language in enhancing racism and inequality of power between nations.

The introduction of the concept formation (danning/Bildung) in the Norwegian Framework plan for the content and tasks of kindergartens makes it important and interesting to gain new knowledge about this concept theoretical as well as practical. The intention in this article is to identify, analyse and discuss formation discourses in the annual plans. The empirical foundation for this qualitative analysis is twenty strategic selected annual plans from different types of kindergartens located in two Norwegian municipalities. Methodological perspectives are linked to several authors and researchers, in particular to Foucault’s critical discourse analysis. The theoretical perspectives in the study builds on Klafki’s formation theory and critical constructive didactics, and to Kosellec’s historical description of the formation concept.  Finally, the two discourses the analysis resulted in: the subjectivity discourse and the community discourse are presented and discussed from relevant theoretical and practical perspectives.Danningsbegrepet er innført i Rammeplan for barnehagens innhold og oppgaver, noe som gjør det både viktig og interessant å utvikle ny kunnskap om danningsbegrepet i barnehagens virksomhet så vel teoretisk som praktisk. Intensjonen i denne artikkelen er å løfte fram, analysere og diskutere hvilke danningsdiskurser som kan spores i årsplanenes beskrivelser av danning. Det empiriske grunnlaget for denne kvalitative analysen er tyve årsplaner fra ulike typer av barnehager lokalisert i to større norske bykommuner. Metodologiske perspektiver er knyttet til flere, men særlig til Focault sin kritiske diskursanalyse. Studien bygger på teoretiske perspektiver fra Klafki sin danningsteori og kritisk konstruktive didaktikk, samt til Kosellec sin begrepshistoriske utredning om danningsbegrepet. Avslutningsvis blir de to diskursene som analysen resulterte i; subjektivitetsdiskursen og felleskapsdiskursen presentert og drøftet ut fra relevante teoretiske og praktiske perspektiver.

This study examines how the pre-war debate of the U.S. decision to invade Iraq was discursively constructed in pro- and anti-war newspaper op/ed argumentation. Drawing on insights from argumentation theory, and using these within a framework of Critical Discourse Analysis, we explore fallacious arguments within the ‘justification discourse’ used in the pro-war opinion/editorials (op/eds). We argue that the type of arguments marshalled by the pro-war op/ed commentators uncritically bolstered the set of U.S. official ‘truth claims’ and ‘presuppositions’. Conversely, anti-war op/ed debaters dismissed the Bush administration’s ‘neo-imperialistic’ reasoning and called into question the logic of militarist ‘humanitarianism’ by arguing that brute force and daylight ‘plunder,’ found in the language of a ‘noble ideal,’ were part of a long Western colonialist tradition that glorified the West as the ‘civiliser’ of distant cultural others.
