A Muslim Sudanese woman’s diasporic experience can be best perceived through a critical discourse analysis (CDA) of Leila Aboulela’s novel Minaret (2005). In a study of Minaret’s textual analysis, this article applies three central CDA postulations: 1.

Linguistic Violence on Women: Representation of Women in Ritual Killing Discourse on Nigerian Social Media Spaces

Language can be used to represent people in a humiliating and defaming way that violates their humanity.

A Critical Discourse Analysis of Religious Moderation Values in the Indonesian EFL Classroom: Teachers' Perspective

This qualitative phenomenological research used Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis model. The primary data sources for this research are English lecturers in Indonesian universities: Universitas Islam Negeri Sultan Aji Muhammad Idris Samarinda, Universitas Islam Negeri Antasari Banjarmasin, and Universitas Islam Negeri Sunan Ampel related to discourses in English lectures. Secondary data from this research was the information about discourse development obtained from data-documentation sources in the form of literature studies from research sources, whether from proceedings, journal articles, theses, or dissertations. The research data analysis used critical discourse analysis, which was developed by Fairclough. This discourse analysis reveals that the English-speaking courses thoroughly integrate dimensions of moderate Islamic perspectives promoted by the Indonesian government - tolerance, non-violence, cultural groundedness, and national unity. Lecturers consciously amplify ideological content and participatory formats embodying these moderate religiosity traits. In short, the classes linguistically reproduce state-ordained religious moderation through textual and structural infusion of key elements. This signals a systemic alignment between English language pedagogy and the cultivation of ideals mandated more broadly across Indonesian higher education.

CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF NORMAN FAIRCLOUGH ON ONLINE MEDIA REPORTING ABOUT THE ROHINGYA REFUGEE CRISIS

Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) examines language as 'discourse,' where language is understood as one element within social processes that dialectically relate to each other. Critical discourse analysis precisely aims to explore these dialectical interconnections within the tradition of critical social science. In this research, the researcher will employ Norman Fairclough's model of critical discourse analysis, which examines discourse analysis through three theories: Text Analysis (Microstructural) related to cohesion and coherence, grammar, and diction; Production Practice Analysis (Mesostructural) dealing with the text production process, text dissemination, and text consumption, such as work patterns, workflow, and routines in news production; Social Cultural Practice Analysis (Macrostructural) related to situational, institutional, and social aspects. This study utilizes a qualitative descriptive method to deepen the critical analysis description of news discourse. The research data consists of words, phrases, or sentences in two online news discourses supporting the research problem. The data collection technique employed is documentary study. The news regarding the arrival of Rohingya refugees in Aceh published by VIVA.co.id becomes the focus of critical discourse analysis using Norman Fairclough's approach. This news reflects the text production process involving microstructural, mesostructural, and macrostructural aspects. In microstructural analysis, language use and representation are highlighted. Phrases like "coming to Indonesia using old boats" and quotes from netizens create negative stereotypes about Rohingya refugees. Social interactions are reflected in conflicts and societal concerns represented by these comments. In mesostructural analysis, the selection of topics, framing, and source determination becomes the focus. Choosing to report the Rohingya refugee issue with a predominantly negative framing reflects editorial production decisions influenced by preferences. Determining sources from netizens and UNHCR creates variations in perspectives. Macrostructural analysis highlights the social, political, and cultural values that shape the news. The Rohingya refugee crisis and global migration politics form the macro background influencing news production. Indonesian cultural values and ideology are reflected in the stigmatization of refugees. In conclusion, this critical discourse analysis reveals how text production practices, social interactions, and macrostructural contexts are interconnected. This news not only reflects internal language and media dynamics but is also tied to power, ideology, and cultural values within society. This analysis opens up space for a deeper understanding of narrative construction and its impact on public perceptions of Rohingya refugees in Indonesia. Keywords: Critical Discourse Analysis, Norman Fairclough, News.

Childfree, an Existentialist Feminist Perspective: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Youtube Cretivox Content 'Mending Punya Anak Atau Tidak Punya Anak???’

This research explores the phenomenon of Childfree as a life choice, particularly within the context of the 21st century. Despite the increasing number of women opting to live without children voluntarily, society often perceives this choice as a deviation from women's inherent nature. The objective of this research is to examine how the childfree discourse is portrayed in Cretivox's YouTube content titled "Mending Punya Anak Atau Tidak Punya Anak???" (Is it better to have children or not to have children???) from an existentialist feminist perspective. To achieve this goal, the research employs Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis model within a qualitative descriptive approach. The findings of the research reveal that Cretivox frames the childfree issue as an individual's life choice deserving respect within the private sphere, free from judgment. The producer, Cretivox, advocates for childfree content as a means to counteract the social stigma associated with choosing not to have children. This aligns with the existentialist feminist viewpoint of Simone de Beauvoir, emphasizing that women's destinies should not be dictated by biological factors, and they should maintain control over their bodies.

IDEOLOGY AND POWER DYNAMICS IN PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FAREWELL ADDRESS: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS

This analysis focuses on President Trump's Farewell Address, utilizing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Fairclough's Three-Dimensional Model.

The findings highlighted how language choices impact persuasion within political discourse by constructing a cohesive message that reinforces American values while inspiring hope for future endeavours. However, it is important to note that this analysis only focuses on a single case study without comparing President Trump's discourse with other political figures' speeches or statements. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of his communication style and strategies, future research could expand its scope by incorporating a wider range of speeches from different contexts considering sociocultural factors with multiple perspectives.

Critical Discourse Analysis of Gender Equality in English Textbooks

Textbooks are recognized worldwide as one of the most widely used and important teaching materials in formal instruction. In alignment with their significance, they are often evaluated and examined in terms of many elements such as content, method, achievements, and skills. Recently, they have also been scrutinized from a more socio-cultural perspective, considering gender representations, equity, racial inclusivity, and cultural diversity. Within this tendency, this study aimed to investigate the status of gender and gender equality in two English textbooks used in tertiary-level English courses offered for the first-year students of a state university in Turkey within quantitative and qualitative perspectives by using Fairclough’s (1989) model of critical discourse analysis. Of the two English textbooks, one was published by a national publishing house and the other by an international one. Female and male representations in visuals and written texts were investigated and the equality of genders was analyzed with a critical viewpoint. The results indicated that there exists approximate equality in gender representation in visuals and texts of the textbooks within a quantitative perspective; however, the qualitative analysis of gender representation according to the values of firstness, titles, and occupational roles yielded a gender bias in favor of men. Consequently, this study made suggestions for enhancing gender equality within English language textbooks.

Representasi Perempuan dalam Perselingkuhan

The Radarsemarang.id media portal has a section entitled “Ambyar”, which contains stories of domestic conflicts that ended in divorce. This rubric is delivered using popular language style and tends to be humorous. However, the writings in this rubric present men and women unequally. As a mass media, Radarsemarang.id has the power to shape reality. This paper dismantles how women are described in infidelity using a qualitative approach using Roger Fowler's Critical Linguistic discourse analysis model. Stuart Hall's representational theory is used as a basis for analysis. This analysis resulted in a selection of vocabulary in the form of a strategy of limiting views, women are always described as perpetrators and men are described as victims in an affair. Through grammar, namely the "Passivation" transformation strategy for men, women are portrayed as active seducers who make men, not of their own volition, trapped in an extramarital affair. Adultery committed by men still places women (third persons) as active parties to seduce.

Ideology and cognitive stereotypes in media representation of the Russia–Ukraine conflict

This study investigates the representation of the Russia–Ukraine conflict by two state-owned Russian news media and two state-owned Ukrainian news media, namely Izvestia, Russia Today, Ukrinform and Dzerkalo Tyzhnia. The aim of this investigation is to determine the ideologies embedded in the news reports and discourse structures, and strategies deployed in portraying the conflict actors and their actions. Van Dijk’s socio-cognitive model of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) (see Ideology: A Multidisciplinary Approach, 1998; New(s) racism: A discourse analytical approach, 2000; and Politics, ideology, and discourse, 2006) and Martin and White’s Appraisal Framework of attitude and graduation (see The Language of Evaluation: Appraisal in English, 2005) served as the theoretical frameworks. Using Critical Discourse Analysis as the analytical framework, the study examines how attitudinal and evaluative language use are employed to enact ideologies and to portray biased presentations of conflict actors. The findings reveal that the media reports of the Russia–Ukraine conflict are laden with militarism and nationalism. Discourse structures and strategies of emotive verbs, evaluative adjectives, positive self-presentation, negative other-presentation, national self-glorification, actor description, comparison and number games are powerful tools for enacting ideologies. The media representation of the Russia–Ukraine conflict lacked conflict resolution embedded linguistic frames and is rather distorted, stereotypic and conflict-inciting.
