Critical Discourse Analysis at the End of 20th Century
Discourse Historical Model by Ruth Wodak
CDA
CDA highlights the substantively linguistic and
discursive nature of social relation of power in
contemporary societies. This is partly the matter of
power relation are exercised and negotiated in
discourse . It is fruitful to look at both “ power in
discourse” and power over discursive in these
dynamic terms.
Wodak 1996
CDA
CDA is not a homogeneous theory with a set of clear
and defined tools, rather it is a research program
with many facets and numerous different theoretical
and methodological approaches ( Fairclough Wodak)
Discourse Historical Approach
1. The approach is problem-oriented, not focused on
specific linguistic items.
2. The approach is interdisciplinary.
3. The approach is abductive
Discourse Historical Approach
1. Discourse Historical Approach integrate historical
background and the original sources in which
discursive events are embedded.
2. The DHA explores the ways in which particular
types and genres of discourse are subject to
diachronic change.
Discourse Historical Approach
Language is deeply social, intertwined with social
processes and interaction:
1. Interaction always involves power and ideologies
2. Interaction ( synchronic & diachronic)
communication( intertextuality &
contextualization)
3. Each communicative event allows numerous
interpretation.
