Sinopsis
What can discourse analysis offer to the better understanding of power and change in South Africa? Discourse perspectives have emerged as a means of addressing the structuring effects of language. This book aims to show how such perspectives can provide a framework for critical intervention and radical political engagement. It focuses in turn on: the process of dismantling apartheid; the issue of gender and sexuality in popular culture; everyday talk and counselling practice; methodological issues arising from discourse analysis in South Africa; and finally on the wider context of using this kind of analysis for supporting change.

Críticas
'How does discourse analysis fare when it confronts the realities of brutal coercion and committed resistance? In the course of addressing that question this exciting volume illuminates many dark corners of both South African society and discourse analysis.' - Kurt Danziger, York University, Canada
