Abstract:

This book approaches the issue of ideology in specialized communication in
professional, institutional and disciplinary settings across domains as
diverse as law, healthcare, corporate management, migration, NGOs, etc.
What unites the contributors is their commitment to a discourse view of
language use, i.e., the view that organisational and professional practices
are rooted in social, ideological orders, although a variety of
perspectives on the exact nature of the relationship between ideology and
discourse can be discerned in individual chapters. 

The acts of interpretation - by participants and analysts alike - are
invested in ideology, explicitly or implicitly. This manifest/hidden
duality surrounding ideology-in-discourse constitutes the main focus.
Challenging the traditional presumption of objectivity, impersonality and
non-involvement that has often characterized research on Language for
Specific Purposes, this book demonstrates how the specialized communication
setting is a critical site where ideology is intrinsically embodied in
discursive practices.
