Dear friends,

A Mexican student asked my assistance in finding studies in CDA that do not focus on dominant discourse, but specifically analyse discourses of dissent, opposition or resistance. I agree with him that such CDA studies are less frequent than studies of dominant discourse, and would like to have your suggestions, from your own work of that of others, about some books and articles that specifically deal with this kind of perspective/data. 

Appended to this message I cite the studies I have found in my own Big Bibliography. But I guess there is much more and hope to have some suggestions from you. 

If you have suggestions to complete the list below, please post them on this list, because they might also be useful for other subscribers to Critics-L.

Thanks in advance. 

Best wishes

Teun
