Dear all,

We are pleased to announce the third international conference Critical
Approaches to Discourse Analysis across Disciplines.  The conference
will take place in Lodz, Poland 13-15 September 2010.  The conference
has a general theme of  "Ideology, identity and interaction".  See

In line with previous CADAAD conferences, this conference aims to
promote new directions in cross-disciplinary critical discourse
research.  We welcome contributions from all areas of critically applied
linguistics.  We especially encourage papers which assess the state of
the art and explore new methodologies in critical discourse research

interaction.  Possible areas of analysis include but are by no means
