Critical Discourse Analysis

Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of discourse which views language as a form of social practice and focuses on the ways social and political domination is reproduced by text and talk.

Norman Faircloughs classic book on CDA, now in a long-awaited new edition, provides an historical overview to this important discipline and focuses on cutting-edge research in the field. The book brings together in one volume papers from a wide range of sources, many of which are difficult to access.
