Critical Discourse Analysis (Theories)
Up one level
In addition to linguistic theory, CDA draws from social theory and contributions from Karl Marx, Antonio Gramsci, Louis Althusser, Jürgen Habermas, Michel Foucault and Pierre Bourdieu — in order to examine ideologies and power relations involved in discourse. According to Fairclough (1989, p. 15) “language connects with the social through being the primary domain of ideology, and through being both a site of, and a stake in, struggles for power”.
