| Abstract | "This interdisciplinary collection brings together leading and emerging scholars of discourse, conceptualizing how discursive practices shape social, political, and even material realities. Discourses in Action presents a wide range of essays that explore the fundamental concerns within the social consequences of text, talk, and discursively informed actions. This collection opens new perspectives on what language does and the possibilities of scholarly and practical contributions that can make a difference. Chapters cover diverse topics, ranging from political struggles regarding climate change, social revolutions and controls, and the unexpected patterns of discursive consequences. These essays dig deeper into the cultural contingencies that underlie discourse practices that are usually ignored when analyzed from within a taken-for-granted culture. Providing a useful examination of current discourse studies, this interdisciplinary volume is ideal for both students and researchers within media, communication, discourse analysis, linguistics and cultural studies"-- Provided by publisher. |
