Linguistic Field(s): Discourse Analysis 

Call Deadline: 17-Dec-2021 

Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce that the 9th conference of the Critical Approaches
to Discourse Analysis Across Disciplines (CADAAD), jointly organized by the
University of Bergamo and Birmingham City University, will take place from 6-8
July 2021 and will be hosted by the University of Bergamo, Italy.

CADAAD conferences are intended to promote current directions and new
developments in cross-disciplinary critical discourse research from a
critical-analytical perspective, deal with contemporary social, scientific,
political, economic, or professional discourses and genres. Whilst we hope to
receive abstracts across the usual wide range of topics and approaches, we
also invite scholars to present papers and posters that that engage with this
year’s conference theme: (Critical) Discourse Analysis and the (new?) normal.

Norms, normalities, and normativities have undoubtedly been disturbed in
recent years. Though ‘normal’ is a local, subjective, and fluid concept, norms
are fundamental to collective endeavour and social practices and have
important implications for ideology, power, and, of course, the construction
of meaning in discourse. Equally, the destabilisation or disruption of norms
gives rise to contestation over shared social values and normativities, as
well as opportunities to galvanise new ways of being. The need for
contemporary discourses to adjust to rapidly changing norms makes this an area
of particular interest for (critical) discourse analysis makes this an area of
particular interest for (critical) discourse analysis.


Call for Papers:

Submission:

CADAAD2022 welcomes paper, poster, and panel proposals that engage in
cross-disciplinary critical discourse research and/or that respond in some way
to the conference theme Discourse Analysis and the (new?) normal. Alongside
submissions engaging with methodological traditions, advances in (C)DS and the
theoretical handling of ‘normativity’ in (C)DS research, we invite work in
discourse analysis across any discipline to explore topics and perspectives
including, but not limited to:

- Colonialism
- Corporate and organisational communication
- Culture, cultural studies, and cultural promotion
- Education
- Environment and environmentalism
- Extremism and radicalisation
- Health
- Identity (gender, sexuality, nationality, ethnicity/race, etc.)
- News and (social) media analysis
- Politics
- (post-)pandemic life - what, if anything, has changed?
- Protest
- Queer studies

There will be a series of plenary lectures at the conference from prominent
researchers in the field which will be confirmed soon.

Apart from individual submissions, panel proposals of three or more papers
with a clear and coherent topic/programme are also welcome. If you are
interested in proposing a panel, please contact the conference organisers:
cadaad.conference at gmail.com

Abstracts of papers (up to 4000 characters excluding references) and posters
(up to 2000 characters excluding references) should be submitted via the
conference webpage (www.cadaad.info) by 17 December 2021 08:00 CET. Abstracts
should include research questions, a brief outline of methodology and
analytical methods, and any theoretical issues addressed, as well describing
the data analysed. All papers will be allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for
questions. The language of the conference is English.

Notification of acceptance of panel proposals will be communicated by 25
