In 2002 a new Ontario college charter signaled a new era for higher education in Ontario. The charter was presumed to usher in a new way of doing higher education, one that provided greater freedom for Ontario colleges and presumably greater access for communities to higher education. Coupled with the Post-Secondary Choice and Excellence Act of 2000, which provided colleges the opportunity to offer degrees, the colleges appeared well set for the freedom they sought. With the decentralization of approval for curriculum comes an appearance of greater autonomy and authority at the local level; however, with steering mechanisms of funding, performance indicators, and discourses of the marketplace, globalization and performativity permeating curriculum processes, “freedom” remains strongly tempered. This paper uses Foucauldian and critical discourse analysis as a means of considering power and higher education in Ontario, and the limitations and opportunities for “freedom” within our existing discourses.

Critical Reflections

This article provides a critical discourse analysis of Scottish newspaper reports relating to football and ‘sectarianism’ in Scotland. It claims that there is a powerful and longstanding ideological ‘framing’ of sectarianism in sections of the Scottish press that is latently power-laden. This discourse attempts to construct and reaffirm a unified non-sectarian core identity that ‘real’ and ‘authentic’ Scots (should) share in opposition to a set of sectarian ‘others’. The various connotations attached to sectarian and sectarianism, together with their use in particular ways that reflect an ideological hegemony, are illustrated. Much of the press treatment of sectarianism is shown to lack sensitivity to the historical, hierarchical and relational aspects of religious, political and ethnic identities in Scotland.

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.

In this paper, I attempt to present an example of following Hallidays grammatical system in analysing a text that can bear racial references. Doing so, the text analysis can be viewed from a critical discourse analysis perspective. The text chosen, titled Europe Must Close Its Borders or be Swamped by Third World, published in 2009, exhibits a typical example of the political rhetoric used by far-right political parties represented by one of its leaders in Britain, Nick Griffin. My assumption is that every word, every verb, and every phrase used is carefully chosen to convey the intended agendas of the party to its prospect voters in a clever way, which achieves its maximum effect with little or no apparent violation to the press guidelines. I also believe that such a stirring text, as far as the paper is concerned, would benefit from the use of various types of verbs and phrases that should suffice the requirement of the analysis. The paper may be of good use to students interested in studying this system of analysis as it deeply goes into the details of the used text.

National press is considered as integral institution in articulation, propagation, and dissemination of the national agenda. The press helps general public in interpreting news stories. This article is set to explore the nature of representation of Islam and Muslims in the editorials of the Australian newspapers during January 01, 2016, to March 31, 2017. This study has employed van Dijk’s ideological square and lexicalization approaches within the critical discourse analysis paradigm to examine editorials from two leading Australian newspapers. The findings showed that both the newspapers The Age and The Australian produced entirely opposite discourses in their editorials regarding Islam and Muslims. The findings have demonstrated that The Age portrayed Islam and Muslims positively and favorably while The Australian constructed Islam and Muslims in a critical and negative way. In the editorial contents of The Age, predominant themes regarding Islam and Muslims were “victimization,” “understanding,” “multiculturalism,” “solidarity,” “cohesion,” and “harmony.” On the contrary, predominant discourse in the editorial contents of The Australian were “securitization,” “Othering,” “violence,” “categorization,” and “stereotyping.”

El objetivo central de esta investigación es entender cómo se construye en los diarios de mayor lectura en Chile la representación social de la cultura mapuche. Para ello, estudiaremos el aspecto cognitivo de la dimensión discursiva asociado al control que ejerce la prensa sobre las estructuras de la noticia y que incide fuertemente en la formación de modelos mentales en sus lectores sobre la alteridad étnica. La metodología que utilizaremos proviene del Análisis Crítico del Discurso (ACD) y su vinculación con la teoría del discurso periodístico; la Semiótica Visual de Kress y Van Leeuwen (1996) y la Semiótica greimasiana.The main goal of this research is to understand how the most read newspapers in Chile have established a social representation of the Mapuche culture. For this, the studied topic will be the cognitive aspect of the discursive dimension associated with the exercised control —by the press— over the structures of the news that strongly influences the formation of mental models in its readers about ethnic alterity. The methodology used will be the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and its link with the theory of journalistic discourse; the Visual Semiotics of Kress and Van Leeuwen (1996) and the Greimasian Semiotics.

First Impression

There are two perspectives toward the appearance of Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to a national political field. The first impression represents optimism towards political decentralization in Indonesia is by addressing Jokowi as a populist figure who can be a politician from a regional area to a capital city. Then, the second impression represents the oligarchy thesis, which is called the rise of Jokowi to a national political landscape because of oligarchies firmly rooted in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze Jokowi’s political communication through populism and oligarchy framework, and the domination of both. This study uses the transformative critical paradigm with the critical discourse analysis (CDA) Teun. A van Dijk’s model as method. The communication of Jokowi’s politics related to corruption eradication, investment escalation, and freedom of expression are analyzed critically by using that method. The result reveals that Jokowi is under two political concepts which contrast to one another, namely populism and oligarchy. These concepts make Jokowi a weak figure who fights the oligarchy’s will. Consequently, Jokowi is not sincerely fighting the KPK’s weakening strategy, inconsistency in developing investment, and the non-sense statement about freedom of expression. In this case, Jokowi (a populist) is being in the oligarchs’ co-optation or ‘oligarchical populism’.

Migratory Movements

The number of women immigrating to Spain in search of a better life has increased in recent years. However, very few news items pay attention to the reasons why they emigrate. A corpus of 30 pieces of news related to immigrant women was collected from February 2012 to April 2013 from the digital version of the main Spanish newspapers El País, El Mundo and ABC. The main hypotheses in this research are: Immigrant women are not very visible in the Spanish press; they are mainly represented as vulnerable and as victims; and they are normally connected to social problems. To confirm or to disprove said hypotheses, this article employs critical discourse analysis, including visual grammar, to analyse the main topics of the pieces of news dealing with immigrant women, and the main linguistic and visual characteristics used to describe them. It transpires that immigrant women are portrayed in the Spanish press as dependent, passive and confined to their homes. Moreover, the majority of the articles on immigrant women associated them with prostitution. The partial representation of immigrant women observed in the corpus of examples does not favour the development of a society established on principles of democracy and equality. In this sense, it is necessary to rethink the depiction of immigrant women in the press, in order to question their role in modern-day migratory movements.

This study examines the role of the press in shaping national identities in contemporary Bangladesh. It employs the critical discourse analysis method to analyze newspapers’ content and closely examines the news texts of three high-profile events in 2013: the Shahbag movement, the murder of blogger Rajib, and the Hefajat movement. Based on the critical discourse analysis of newspaper articles related to these three events, this study observes a discursive construction of two binary and intolerant identities in the coverage. This analysis demonstrates how the discourse of each newspaper creates meanings related to national identities and ideologies that serve to justify the interests of ‘us’ and to criticize ‘them’.

Using the method of the critical discourse analysis and the insights of George Orwell „1984“ the author aims at analysing the propaganda mechanisms (production distribution and perception) of the totalitarian press in the 1950-s. The socio-political context of the press and the new relations between orality and literacy because of the domination of the new elite (mainly of village origin and with low education) have been outlined. The text analysis discovers the duality of the themes, the centralized and passive sources of the texts, new genres and the new imagery explained by some psychoanalytical concepts. The structure of the newspeak changed considerably with logoside and intensive production of neologisms, especially abbreviations, abundance of euphemisms and doublethinks which aim at closing the thought in vicious circles.
