Abstract:

The studies presented in this volume focus on two distinct but related areas 
of specialized communication professional and academic settings, resting on 
an anti-essentialist notion of identity as a phenomenon that emerges from the 
dialectic between individual and society.

The authors start from a detailed analysis of discourse practices as 
evidenced in texts, their production and the professional performance 
patterns which underlie such practices, and explore the way the actors, roles 
and identities are constructed in language and discourse. In particular, by 
highlighting discursive attitudes and aptitudes, they underscore the need to 
understand discourse in light of norms of professional responsibility, showing 
that not only do professionals and academics use discourse to create self-
identity, but they also use identity constructed through discourse to influence 
society.
