Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis Research Articles

Revealing Representation of China and America by the Media of CNBC Indonesia Relating to South China Sea Conflict

In reporting conflict between countries, media was never possible to present completely neutral, accurate and full picture of the issues, instead it offered representations through language. This study aimed to reveal the representation of China and USA in coverage of SCSC by CNBC Indonesia. The research data were text excerpts of the reports (words, phrases, and sentences) which interpretatively constructed the media's representation. Data analysis was carried out descriptive-critically using Fairclough critical discourse analysis (CDA) model to describe the utilization of linguistic features (word choice, transitivity, modality, and rhetoric trope) in constructing representation of the story. The results showed that there was polarity representation of participants, actions, and events. The negative representation was labeled for China; conversely, positive representation was embedded for USA. In addition, it could also be interpreted that the media representation was influenced by the situational context of media institutions in selecting and organizing their news and the socio-political context, which gave rise to the choice of representation in reporting the SCS conflict.

Case Study: Postruth Construction During The Covid 19 Pandemic

This study aims to propose post truth as one of the constructions of transhumanism. To make it easy to understand, the research took case studies in cyberspace related to Covid-19 in Indonesia. Fairclough's critical discourse analysis method is used to analyze post truth on Instagram social media. The results show that post truth as a construction of transhumanism has several arrangements. First, there is a post truth agent, namely the implementing party or subject who does post truth, this shows that the existence of digital technology makes humans have an ambivalent identity. Second, momentum, in this case of the covid pandemic and hot issues (disputes between regional leaders as the time for discourse to appear), momentum is the key that post truth can occur. This shows that technology is used to understand how we co-create human experience. Finally, people who concentrate on digital technology and cyberspace currently operate with the logic of surveillance capitalism, meaning that everything is measured by the number of clicks, engagement, and the duration of the audience watching. We believe that these results have the potential to cause bias in the truth of information to the public, so this study suggests that public authorities should take all the necessary measures to enhance the literacy public to mitigating the negative impacts caused due to the post truth.

Creating opportunities for patient participation in managing medications across transitions of care through formal and informal modes of communication.

BackgroundCommunicating about medications across transitions of care is important in older patients who frequently move between health care settings. While there is increasing interest in understanding patient communication across transitions of care, little is known about older patients' involvement in formal and informal modes of communication regarding managing medications.ObjectiveThe aim of this paper was to explore how older patients participated in managing their medications across transitions of care through formal and informal modes of communication.MethodsThe study was conducted across two metropolitan hospitals: an acute hospital and a geriatric rehabilitation hospital in metropolitan Melbourne, Australia. A focused ethnographic design was used involving semi‐structured interviews (n = 50), observations (203 h) and individual interviews or focus groups (n = 25). Following thematic analysis, data were analysed using Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis.ResultsData analysis revealed two major discursive practices, which comprised of an interplay between formal and informal communication and environmental influences on formal and informal communication. Self‐created patient notes were used by older patients to initiate informal discussion with health professionals about medication decisions, which challenged traditional unequal power relations between health professionals and patients. Formal prompts on electronic medication administration records facilitated the continuous information discourse about patients' medications across transitions of care and encouraged health professionals to seek out older patients' preferences through informal bedside interactions. Environmental influences on communication comprised health professionals' physical movements across private and public spaces in the ward, their distance from older patients at the bedside and utilization of the computer systems during patient encounters.ConclusionOlder patients' self‐created medication notes enabled them to take on a more active role in formal and informal medication communication across transitions of care. Older patients and family members did not have continuous access to information about medication changes during their hospital stay and systems often failed to address older patients' key concerns about their medications, which hindered their active involvement in formal and informal communication.Patient or Public ContributionOlder adults, family members and health professionals volunteered to be interviewed and observed.

“I say it but wouldn't be happy hearing it from a kid”: Personal boundary parameters in responding to taboo language, swearing and -IST-ing use

As a result of social and linguistic change, the use of swearing and taboo language has become commonplace in Anglophone societies with varying responses to its use. This commonplace use of swearing and taboo language is also apparent in educational institutions. Commentary from educators suggests they are frequently confronted with verbally abusive students in school settings. Data available in Queensland, Australia, illustrate a large percentage of students are suspended and excluded from school for verbal misconduct. As a result, many students are missing school because of institutionally unacceptable but socially and culturally mutable linguistic choices. This article examines the associated responses from stakeholders regarding swearing and taboo language use in school contexts, keeping the societal linguistic change in mind. Adopting a Foucaultian approach of discourse and power and Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), 19 secondary school teachers were interviewed for their perspectives of and responses to the use of taboo language and swearing by secondary school students. Analysis of the data suggest three areas of concern. First, document analysis exposes ambiguity in the institutional behaviour management policies. Second, participant responses reveal limited knowledge of the policies and third, participants’ use of personal parameters rather than policy when responding to swearing and taboo language use by students in school contexts. Therefore, policy needs to be readdressed with these data in mind and further studies relating to swearing and taboo language use in school contexts are required, specifically incorporating international perspectives, which may add insight to this linguistic issue. Short AbstractAs a result of social and linguistic change, the use of swearing and taboo language has become commonplace in Anglophone societies with varying responses to its use. Educational institutions demonstrate similar linguistic change, behaviour, and responses. Adopting a Foucaultian approach of discourse and power and Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), 19 secondary school teachers were interviewed for their perspectives of and responses to the use of taboo language and swearing by students. Data analysis exposes ambiguity in institutional behaviour management policies, limited knowledge of policies by participants and the use of personal parameters by participants in responding to swearing and taboo language use by students in school contexts. Policy needs to be readdressed with these data in mind.
