Based on the approach known as the "Critical Analysis of Discourse", thisarticle brings into scene two of the most relevant aspects of a researchcarried out between 2003 and 2005 that responded to the Law 2912 issued bythe "Ministerio de Educación Nacional de Colombia".On one hand, this text aims to show that argumentation, either as schematicstructure or as organizational array of discourse, is one of the resources thatbest testifies the mobilization of ideological positionings. For the level of argumentation we find support in Toulmin [1993] and Perelman & Olberchts-Tyteca [1989]. For the level of socially shared beliefs, we use the MultidisciplinaryTheory of ideology proposed by van Dijk [1999]. On the other hand,the text also aims to point out the way recent Colombian Governments havehiddenly been incorporating neoliberal trasnformations in order to reach, nomatter the cost, the labour flexibility of teachers. ; Desde el enfoque conocido como Análisis Crítico del Discurso, el artículoque sigue pone escena dos de los aspectos más relevantes de una investigaciónrealizada entre los años 2003 y 2005, a raíz de la expedición del Decreto2912 por parte del Ministerio de Educación Nacional de Colombia.Por una parte, este texto busca mostrar que la Argumentación, bien comoEstructura esquemática o bien como Modo de organización del discurso, esuno de los recursos que mejor da testimonio de la movilización de posicionamientosideológicos. Para el nivel de la argumentación nos apoyamos enToulmin [1993] y en Perelman y Olbrechts-Tyteca [1989]. Para el nivel de lascreencias socialmente compartidas nos servimos de la Teoría multidisciplinariade la ideología propuesta por van Dijk [1999]. Por otra parte, el textotambién busca llamar la atención sobre la manera como los gobiernos colombianosrecientes vienen incorporando soterradamente transformaciones decorte neoliberal con el firme propósito de alcanzar al precio que sea la flexibilidadlaboral del magisterio.

This article uses critical discourse analysis to analyze material shifts in the political economy of communications. It examines texts of major corporations to describe four key changes in political economy: (1) the separation of ownership from control; (2) the separation of business from industry; (3) the separation of accountability from responsibility; and (4) the subjugation of "going concerns" by overriding concerns. The authors argue that this amounts to a political economic shift from traditional concepts of "capitalism" to a new "corporatism" in which the relationships between public and private, state and individual interests have become redefined and obscured through new discourse strategies. They conclude that the present financial and regulatory "crisis" cannot be adequately resolved without a new analytic framework for examining the relationships between corporation, discourse, and political economy.

This paper used a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to analyze the representation of Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) in the 2006 federal election in Canada. Using Fairclough's approach to CDA, the study analyzed written documents including newspaper articles from The Globe and Mail and The National Post, the policy platforms of the Liberal and conservative parties, and political speeches from party leaders. The "choice" discourse was found to be dominant in the majority of texts examined. A dominant discourse is one that is created and sustained by those with power thus contributing to hegemony in society. Three textual and discourse processes were found to legitimize the "choice" discourse and contribute to its dominance: rationalization, nominalization and conversationalization. It is suggested that the language used in public documents throughout this election and the subsequent dominance of the "choice" discourse may have had a significant impact on citizens' understanding and appreciation of the complexities of the ECEC issue. ; Richardson, B., & University of Toronto.

Conceptual distinctions between care and early childhood education have influenced and reinforced the construction of knowledge about the early childhood education and care (ECEC) policy area. Discursive constructions in policy texts permeate wider society and become embodied in the broad social domain as "truths", establishing the status quo about how social issues are perceived. Close scrutiny of the knowledge constructed about key concepts within Irish ECEC policy texts between 1998 and 2008 can shed some light on the ideological perspectives shaping the truths about ECEC in Irish society. This research used a critical discourse analysis (CDA) methodology to investigate policy texts; involving the undertaking of a thorough linguistic textual analysis, while also considering the wider political and social context of these texts. Using the CDA method this thesis aimed to understand the conceptual construction of ECEC policy, focusing in on how children's rights are both constructed and obstructed within the truths known about ECEC and how this impacts on a rights based construction of policy. Recent ECEC policy in Ireland has developed in a reactive fashion, paying lip service to the rights of children while more often serving the needs of others. Findings show that the key knowledge constructions within Irish ECEC policy shape early education as subordinate to childcare; thus within this notion of childcare, the provision of places is more urgent than reconceptualising the ECEC sector. The concept of parental choice, and meeting parent's needs and rights, influences policy more so than the rights or needs of children; children are predominantly constructed as in need of early education as preparation for formal schooling. The concept of rights is subordinated to that of needs; targeting has been the favoured policy action as opposed to the provision of universal services. While language of rights, universality and more joined-up policy approaches have permeated the linguistic construction of policy texts, there has been no significant shift within understandings of ECEC or children's rights in the wider policy realm. Without a shift in the conceptual understanding of ECEC policy, a children's rights focus will remain underdeveloped.

Die Sprache in Militärblogs von US-Soldaten, die in Afghanistan und im Irak dienen. Eine Kritische DiskursanalyseMichaela SIMONSDas Internet hat es Menschen auf der ganzen Welt ermöglicht, einfach und auf schnellstem Wege miteinander zu kommunizieren. Eine beliebte Form der sozialen Vernetzung im Internet sind Blogs, eine Art privates Online-Tagebuch. Diese haben im letzten Jahrzehnt starke Bedeutung und Popularität erlangt und sind unter anderem bei US-Soldatinnen und US-Soldaten, vor allem seit Beginn des Krieges in Afghanistan im Jahr 2003, sehr beliebt. Diese Diplomarbeit wendet den Zugang der Kritischen Diskursanalyse an, um die Sprache in Blogs von US-Militärpersonal, das in Afghanistan und im Irak dient oder gedient hat, zu untersuchen, um zugrunde liegende Ideologien und geteilte Überzeugungen aufzudecken. Die Analyse konzentriert sich hauptsächlich auf zwei Forschungsfragen: Zum einen beschäftigt sie sich mit der Frage, wie US-Heeresangehörige ihren Kriegseinsatz begründen und rechtfertigen. Zum anderen wird hinterfragt, wie diese Soldatinnen und Soldaten ihre individuelle und kollektive Identität konstruieren sowie die ihrer Gegner und der Bevölkerung in Afghanistan und im Irak. Die Analyse zeigt, dass es nicht nur unterschiedliche persönliche Motivationen für den Kriegseinsatz gibt, sondern auch eine Vielzahl an Meinungen bezüglich der Gründe und Rechtfertigungen für die beiden Kriege generell. Des Weiteren beweist die Arbeit, dass eine starke Wechselwirkung zwischen der Konstruktion von individueller Identität und der kollektiven Identität als Mitglied beim Militär vorliegt. Darüber hinaus zeigt die Untersuchung, dass die lokale Bevölkerung in den Kriegsländern als unschuldig und verwundbar dargestellt wird, während die Gegner stark kriminalisiert werden. Zuletzt wird aufgezeigt, dass die Sprache in Militärblogs den Diskurs der herrschenden Klasse reproduziert und somit zur Erhaltung und Reproduktion von Machtverhältnissen beiträgt. ; The Internet has made it possible for people all over the world to virtually interact and communicate with each other. A common way of social networking through the Web is blogging, i.e. the creation and keeping of a sort of private journal on the Internet. Blogs have gained significant importance during the last decade and have led to the establishment of various digital communities, such as the community of military blogs, which have become increasingly popular among U.S. soldiers since the beginning of the war in Afghanistan in 2003. This thesis uses the approach of Critical Discourse Analysis to investigate the discourse of military blogs by U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq in order to discover underlying ideologies and shared values and beliefs in the texts. The analysis mainly focuses on the two research questions of how soldiers justify their participation in the wars in question and how these soldiers construct their individual and collective identity, the identity of their opponents and that of the local population in Afghanistan and Iraq. The analysis demonstrates that there is not only a variety of personal motivation for going to war but also a great variety of opinions concerning the reasons and justifications for the wars in general. Furthermore, the analysis shows that the construction of the soldiers? individual identity strongly correlates with the identification as a member within the military community. In addition, the investigation shows that the local population is likely to be conceptualized as innocent and vulnerable, whereas the enemy is strongly criminalized. Ultimately, the analysis proves that the language in military blogs reproduces the discourse of the dominant bloc, thus contributing to the naturalization of the discourse of those in power and the resulting preservation and reproduction of power relations. ; vorgelegt von Michaela Simons ; Abweichender Titel laut Übersetzung der Verfasserin/des Verfassers ; Zsfassung in dt.

This paper discusses implications of Information Communication Technologies (ICT) growth on the new political discourse in Pakistan. The power play between the civil society and General Pervez Musharraf set new directions for Pakistani politics in 2007. This paper presents a critical discourse analysis of the controversy surrounding Musharraf's attempt to continue holding the offices of army chief and president of Pakistan simultaneously. He declared "army uniform is part of my skin". The civil society's online participation in the political process and the street protests that resulted forced him to flee the country. The paper offers an analysis of ICT growth and politics in Pakistan and provides an understanding of how ICT growth has shaped the political landscape in Pakistan. Social and electronic media have emerged as powerful political players and have influenced Pakistani politics and policy development. This critical discourse analysis explains political changes during 2007 that are generally attributed to ICT growth. The results indicate that ICT growth plays an important role in achieving harmony, coordination, social change, justice, and transparency of government. Adapted from the source document.
