It offers rich, meaningful data that can provide real insights and new perspectives. But once you have the data how do you select an appropriate means of analysis? How do you ensure that the approach you adopt is the best for your project and your data? The book will help you choose strategies for qualitative analysis that best suit your research. It walks you through key decisions, provides actionable game plans and highlights the advantages and challenges of the main approaches. It is packed full of real examples designed to showcase the different tools you might use to meet your own objectives. Each section of the book focuses on one popular strategy for analyzing talk-based data: Narrative Analysis Conversation Analysis Discourse Analysis Taken together these sections will help you to fine-tune the link between your primary research question and your methods; to ensure that your theoretical stance fits with your methods; and to reason through your analysis in a way that will be recognizable to the intellectual communities of narrative, conversation, or discourse analysts. This book is both starting point and map for any social scientist looking to strategically and purposefully analyse talk data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discourses and narratives are crucial in how we understand a world of rapid changes. This textbook constitutes a unique introduction to two major influential theoretical and methodological fields - discourse and narrative methods - and examines them in their interrelation. It offers readers an orientation within the broad and contested area of discourse and narrative methods and develops concrete analytical strategies to those who wish to explore both or one of these fields as well as their overlaps. Illustrated with examples from real life and real research, this book: Maps the theoretical influence from poststructuralist, postmodern, postcolonial and feminist ideas on the field of discourse and narrative. Acts as a guide to the most central analytical approaches in discourse and narrative studies supported by concrete examples of analytical strategies. Presents a variety of oral, textual, visual and other ’data’ for the purpose of analyzing discourse and narrative. Offers deeper insight into discourse and narrative methods within three themes of crucial importance for changing global context: media and society, gender and space, and autobiography and life writing. Acts as a helpful guide to situated writing based on concrete workshop exercises, which promotes ethical reflexivity, analytical thinking and creative engagement in the study of discourses and narratives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discourse Analysis as Theory and Method is a systematic introduction to discourse analysis as a body of theories and methods for social research. It brings together three central approaches, Laclau and Mouffe′s discourse theory, critical discourse analysis and discursive psychology, in order to establish a dialogue between different forms of discourse analysis often kept apart by disciplinary boundaries. The book introduces the three approaches in a clear and easily comprehensible manner, explaining the distinctive philosophical premises and theoretical perspectives of each approach as well as the methodological guidelines and tools they provide for empirical discourse analysis. The authors also demonstrate the possibilities for combining different discourse analytical and non-discourse analytical approaches in empirical study. Finally, they contextualize discourse analysis within the social constructionist debate about critical social research, rejecting the view that a critical stance is incompatible with social constructionist premises and arguing that critique must be an inherent part of social research.

Book excerpt: Magisterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Universität Trier, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Fragestellung, ob spezifische Strategien in Interviews auf linguistischer Ebene identifiziert und nachgewiesen werden können. Dies geschieht anhand einer Fallstudie der Larry King Live Shows. Dazu werden zunächst einige Informationen zur Person Larry King sowie zu den Larry King Live Shows erörtert. Im Anschluss wird zur Bestimmung des theoretischen Rahmens erläutert, was unter Begriffen wie Interview, Frage, Diskurs, oder auch Argumentation genau zu verstehen ist. Damit einhergehend wird grundlegend auf die Diskussion um discourse markers eingegangen. Dies geschieht u.a. aufgrund früherer Studien von Fraser (1987, 1990, 1999), Redeker (1990), und Lauerbach (2007). In einem zweiten Schritt werden unterschiedliche Arten von Fragen und deren Charakteristika erläutert. Anhand dieser lassen sich im Kapitel 5 u.a. verschiedene Strategien, welche entsprechend in verschiedenen Situationen angewendet werden, ableiten. Zusätzlich werden die unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten der Verkettung und Aneinanderreihung der verschiedenen Arten von Fragen besprochen. Im Zusammenhang mit der Identifizierung der daraus resultierenden spezifischen Strategien werden anschließend beobachtbare Merkmale gesucht, welche zur Analyse herangezogen werden können. In einem ersten Schritt wird auf deskriptive Weise untersucht, welche Routinen Larry King anwendet und welchen Einfluss diese auf Gäste und Zuschauer haben. Ferner wird auf Basis einer Gegenüberstellung diverser Charakteristika von conversational und institutional discourse Schritt für Schritt erörtert, welcher Natur die Larry King Live Shows sind. Dabei stehen der Grad an sprachlicher Spontanität, die Rollenverteilung sowie wechselnde Rollen der einzelnen Gesprächsteilnehmer, sowie die Orientierung der Adressaten im Vordergrund. In Kapitel 5.2 wird anschließend auf die zuvor besc

This book was released on 2021-11-17 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection explores the discursive strategies and linguistic resources underpinning conflict and polarization, taking a multidisciplinary approach to examine the ways in which conflict is constructed across a diverse range of contexts. The volume is divided into two sections as a means of identifying two different dimensions to conflict construction and bridging the gap between different perspectives through a constructivist framework. The first part comprises chapters looking at sociopolitical conflicts across specific geographic contexts across the US, Europe and Latin America. The second half of the book unpacks sociocultural conflicts, those not defined by physical borders but shaped by ideological differences on core values, such as on religion, gender and the environment. Drawing on frameworks across such fields as linguistics, critical discourse analysis, rhetoric studies and cognitive studies, the book offers new insights into the discursive polarization that permeates contemporary communicative interactions and the ways in which a better understanding of conflict and its origins might serve as a mechanism for providing new ways forward. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars in critical discourse analysis, linguistics, rhetoric studies and peace and conflict studies.
