AbstrakLine Today merupakan fitur agregator berita yang terdapat dalam aplikasi Line Messenger. Salah satu berita yang dijadikan Line Today sebagai highlights pada bulan September 2017 lalu adalah kasus tarung gladiator di kalangan pelajar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana wacana kekerasan dikemas dalam pemberitaan tarung gladiator pada Line Today dengan menggunakan analisis wacana kritis Norman Fairclough untuk menganalisis teks, praktik produksi teks, dan praktik sosial budaya. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan metode kualitatif yang memusatkan perhatian pada prinsip-prinsip umum yang mendasari perwujudan sebuah makna dari gejala-gejala sosial di dalam masyarakat dengan menggunakan paradigma kritis. Paradigma ini memandang bahwa bahasa tidak hanya sebagai alat untuk memahami realitas objektif belaka, tetapi perlu melihat maksud-maksud dari wacana tertentu. Paradigma kritis jauh lebih meneliti aspek sosial, sejarah, dan budaya dari wacana tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Line Today memilih enam berita dari media Kumparan.com, Liputan6.com, dan Okezone.com untuk merekonstruksi kekerasan dalam kasus tarung gladiator di kalangan pelajar. Bahasa yang digunakan dalam teks berita dikemas secara ringan, singkat, dan mudah dipahami oleh generasi milenial.Kata Kunci: Kekerasan, Line Today, Media, Norman Fairclough AbstractLine Today is a news aggregator feature contained in the Line Messenger app. One of the news that Line Today made as highlights in September 2017 was the gladiator fight case among teenage students.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences and similarities between Arabic and English parents’ role in Arabic and English parenting website texts and the linguistic exponents used to address parents and signal their roles, and to find out the socio-cultural ideologies that have given rise to variations in gender roles. To this end, a corpus of 40 articles targeting gender-neutral titles and father related ones were selected equally from English and Arabic websites. Drawing on Van Leeuwen’s (2008) framework on critical discourse analysis (CDA) and Sunderland’s (2000, 2006) framework of analysis, the data were analysed and contrasted. The English texts reflected the prevalence of ‘shared parenting’ discourse, whereas the Arabic ones revealed a ‘very traditional parenthood’ discourse. These differences can be attributed to variation in the socio-cultural practices dominant in Arab and Western societies. Such findings will hopefully provide some useful insights for family life educators and parents who resort to such websites.

Authenticity is a particularly sensitive and salient issue in the online market for second-hand luxury clothing, and it is still little explored in the field of consumption studies. In this study we sought to analyze how authenticity is represented in discursive practices of the Brazilian online market for second-hand luxury clothing. The corpus of the work consisted of data collected through interviews in five stores of the Brazilian online market of luxury second-hand clothing. The data were analyzed using the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), proposed by Fairclough (1992), articulated to the sociocultural perspective of consumption. From the discursive categories Subject, Interdiscursivity, Intertextuality, Transitivity System, and Appraisal System, we perceived that the process of legitimizing the stores and the representations of authenticity are overlapped and traversed significantly by historical, social, and cultural aspects. We conclude that insofar as it becomes difficult to ensure objective authenticity, an interpretative dimension emerges, elaborated from the influence of sociocultural factors that underlie the judgment on what is authentic luxury, which in the scenario investigated are indexes of expression of high luxury. In this case, the origins and trajectories that are recognized as references of elite distinction for Brazilian consumers are important elements for the interpretation of authenticity.

This paper examines the language of the blogs from the point of view of Critical Discourse Analysis as it is conceived by Norman Fairclough. The main aim is to analyse discourse practices in the on-line context. The interactive process and the constitution of discourse community in blogs will be examined according to the genre analysis approach developed by Bakhtin (1997) and the concept of discourse community developed by Swales(1990).

In U.S. schools, educators are often regarded as knowledge producers and sole pedagogues, whereas parents (particularly of Color) are perceived as not engaged or interested in their child(ren)'s education (Colgrove, 2019; Nuñez, 2019; Ramirez, 2020). These negative stereotypes and white-centered discourses sustain raciolinguistic perspectives (Rosa & Flores, 2017) of families of Color and immigrant backgrounds. For the present study, we employed critical discourse analysis to explore why and how Mexican mothers raise bilingual children by examining how their experiences inform us about their powerful roles as critical translanguaging pedagogues. Drawing on border thinking and pedagogy of border thinking, the findings revealed two main themes: (1) how mothers recognize and draw on the ruptures of cultural and linguistic worlds, and (2) how they sustain language through family and cultural practices. Lastly, we share implications for educators, teacher educators, and policymakers.

Movie and discourse have been an academic concern. Based on the theoretical framework of Fairclough concept (1995), this study attempts to make a meso-level critical discourse analysis of a local movie, Rudy Habibie (2016). It explores how the discursive is formed and legitimized in the process of production, distribution, and consumption by the representation of the movie Rudy Habibie. It validates the effectiveness of CDA as a tool to reveal the relationship between language and ideology. It proves that Fairclough’s framework can be applied in the movie discursive study. Pratically it draws the attention to the ideologies embedded in movie discourse and encourages to improve the critical thinking. The findings described the various behaviors taken from the movie Rudy Habibie which are aimed to reveal stereotypes, presuppositions, hegemony, power and ideological stances. As the consequences, this movie became the best selling movie in 2016. The presented ideology delivered the audience through the story of the movie as the result of the text production, distribution, and consumption. The representation contributes to the construction of social power. Furthermore, the research believed having implications for language teaching, especially in CDA subject. Toward the applying of the CDA approach in the course, the student will be able to achieve the understanding of the writer’s style, finding meaning and reasons for particular stylistic choices.

Corruption is not only a well-known lexical expression (e.g. Orpin, 2005), it is also a social phenomenon (e.g. Khondker, 2006; Collier, 2002) researched by scholars from different fields and from different standpoints. However, the study of corruption from the perspective of language has not enjoyed adequate research. This is especially true of the speeches of Nigerian presidents that are particularly revealing of how a president/government construes corruption. This research paper explores and analyzes the discursive positioning of corruption by two successive Nigerian presidents - Umaru Musa Yar’Adua and Goodluck Jonathan - using their two official speeches as data. Following Halliday’s system of Transitivity (Halliday, 1978, 1985, 1993) and Fairclough’s three-tier analytical framework grounded in Critical Discourse Analysis (1989, 1992, 1995), this paper argues that official speeches of presidents (particularly in Nigeria) can discursively reveal their commitment to fighting corruption. Also, the instruments of language can be used tactically absolve themselves from corruption.

This scientific work was written to reveal the discourse on dai certification that has been being discussed since 2017. Many media, both print and broadcast-based, have highlighted this discourse. The broadcast media also discussed the discourse so it was natural because the public's consideration saw certification as something important in the midst of the rise of preachers on the pulpit armed with doubtful and doubtful knowledge and conveying religious messages intolerantly and then understanding radicalism. The object of this research is the Prime Talk program which aired on Metro Tv on 19 November 2019 with the title Dai Certification, Counteracting Radicalization using qualitative methods with critical discourse analysis by Van Dijk's model. The author's important notes from the diaphragm presented in this program also serve as data in revealing the discourse Based on the analysis of Van Dijk's model of critical discourse, it shows that the 19 Nomvember 2019 edition of Prime Talk entitled Dai Certification, Warding Radicalization builds five discourses: (1) recently religious messages are often conveyed by speakers whose religious knowledge is shallow so they tend to be extreme; (2) standardization of dai to print frendly dai against the Republic of Indonesia; (3) important dai certification applied throughout Indonesia; (4) Indonesia has been slow in certifying dai; and (5) the security apparatus must be responsive to reduce intolerant conditions.

AbstractThis paper critically examines the ways in which the European Court of Human Rights represents applicants' religious and cultural practices in its legal discourse. Borrowing tools from critical discourse analysis and incorporating insights from the anti-essentialist critique, the paper suggests that the Court has most problematically depicted the practices of Muslim women, Sikhs and Roma Gypsies. The analysis reveals that, by means of a reifying language, the Court oftentimes equates these groups' practices with negative stereotypes or posits them as the group's ‘paradigmatic’ practice / way of life. The thrust of the argument is that these sorts of representation are problematic because of the exclusionary and inegalitarian dangers they carry both for the applicants and for their groups. In negatively stereotyping applicants' practices and in privileging certain group practices over others, these types of assessment underestimate what is at stake for the applicants and potentially exclude them from protection. Moreover, these types of reasoning risk sustaining hierarchies across and within groups. The paper concludes by sketching out an approach capable of mitigating stereotyping and essentialising risks.
