The research in hand has the objectives to analyse how ideologies are expressed through discourse practices in Western media; how a discourse practice and a linguistic strategy in terms of lexical choices are employed in portraying ideologies in media about Pakistan. Grounded on the theoretical framework of Van Dijk’s socio-cognitive approach of critical discourse analysis and model of Ideology which is the most appropriate to study media discourse, the data will be analysed qualitatively. The method of the current research is critical discourse analysis. The research revolves around the Pakistani socio-political events in Western media from the perspective of a global issue that is a war on terrorism. The research has objectives to investigate what and how Western media has used lexical choices to depict a certain ideology about Pakistan to the world.

Political Scene

This paper, framed under the scope of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), explains social processes by analyzing discourse practices. It proposes (para)linguistic variables employed in the creation of (in)formality in discourse in relation to two Aristotelian persuasive modes: Ethos and Pathos (Kennedy 1991). These modes of persuasion reveal different ways to convey a political message in the current U.S. political scene. This paper compares the stylistic differences in speeches given by George W. Bush and Barack Obama to justify escalating troops in the conflicts of Iraq (2007) and Afghanistan (2009), respectively. I propose (para)linguistic indicators of formality associated with Aristotelian modes at the level of linguistic choices (“lexical variables” [Schilling-Estes 2004] and “marked register usages” [Myers-Scotton 2001]), textual organization (structure and predictability), non-verbal communication (i.e. laughter; Jefferson, Sacks & Schegloff 1987), and intertextuality (Blackledge 2005; Fairclough 1992, 2003) by means of new voices (Bakhtin 1981) into the here-and-now moment of discourse.

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).

Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis

This paper analyzes the objectification of the South Asian female subject as subaltern by the patriarchal power structure, and disrupts the relevant discourse practices. It investigates this notion in Qaisra Shahraz’s novel The Holy Woman. Methodologically, it applies Gayatri Spivak’s perspective of the subaltern to establish its ontological premise. Additionally, it uses Lazar’s concept of Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis to deconstruct the power discourse behind the objectification of the female identity as reflected in the selected text. The analysis of the selected text reflects as the South Asian patriarchal society ‘legitimizes’ the ‘othering’ of its female subject for the fulfilment of its power agenda that involve political and economic interests. The analysis also reveals as dominant discourse interprets religion the way it suits the power structure. It also shows how the female subject realizes its manipulation by acquiring the knowledge which she earlier lacked and on the acquired awareness, resists the power structure. Through its methodological approach, the paper incites further research into the reorientation of subalternity in the South Asian context.

Beauty Products

Through advertisements aired on television, electronic media, online, and printed media, it is easy for the public to obtain product information from various brands displaying attractive images, visuals, and texts. Indeed, the most significant influence in advertising is the use of text that can change potential consumer communities' perceptions and perspectives. The study aims to analyze the advertisement of two competing brands' advertisement of beauty products in gaining sympathy from the potential public customers. Despite the fact that some research studies have attempted to reveal the beauty advertisements' ideology from a Critical Discourse Analysis perspective, little has been done to uncover the comparative studies on local and international beauty products. To obtain the data, this study examined the advertisements of two competing beauty products that have been displayed on online media (YouTube). These advertisements were analyzed by using Critical Analysis (CDA) by Norman Fair Clough. CDA was divided into three interrelated dimensions: texts, discourse practices, and socio-cultural practices. The findings revealed that the texts in the advertisements were formulated in such a way to persuade and attract the sympathy of potential buyers. In addition, the texts were also created by elevating existing realities and shaping certain realities in society so that the advertisements achieved the ultimate goal of reaching the sympathy of the potential buyers.

This paper examines approaches to therapeutic discourse from the point of view of Critical Discourse Analysis as it is conceived by Norman Fairclough. The main aim is to analyse how discourse practices affect the constitution of identities in late modernity. Two analytic models of therapeutic discourse will be critically revisited: the first one developed by Labov & Fanshel (1977) within the framework of Discourse Analysis, and the second developed by Ribeiro et alii (2002) within the framework of Interactional Sociolinguistics.

The 1950S

The study adopts a critical discourse analysis approach to Chiang Kai-shek's (CKS) internal nationalist propaganda and authoritarian discourse practices, investigating his New Year and National Day speeches in the 1950s. Authoritarian characteristics are evident in strategies such as legitimation, reification, or myth-making, in the antagonist categorisation of Self versus Other, in Self-glorification and the idolisation of the dead, in the hegemonic creation of commonality and unity, and in the metaphorical conceptualisation of reality. Patterns of idolising the dead serve to impose and legitimise CKS's worldview among his citizens. Another pattern is CKS's invention of imaginary compatriots within the “enslaved China” waiting for the best time to overthrow the “bandits”' rule. Reference to these imaginary agents indirectly presents to his audience a false but better impression of the Self, and a dimmer view of the communist bandits. A third pattern is CKS's metaphorical use of language, such as references to communist China as a puppet regime of Russia.
