Abstract:

This volume addresses demands on external and internal science communication
in times of crisis. The contributions discuss present crises such as COVID-19
(e.g. vaccination campaigns or political reactions towards the pandemic in the
context of science scepticism), and climate change (e.g. plausibility
judgements or the role of scientists). They also relate their approaches to
past crises, e.g. 9/11 or the Galileo affair. This volume is unique in that it
is interdisciplinary from a theoretical and methodological perspective. In
that respect, the authors apply concepts from corpus linguistics, discourse
analysis, rhetoric, news values analysis, pragmatics and terminology research
to various types of data, such as newspaper headlines, Tweets, open letters,
corpora or glossaries. The case studies are situated within different cultural
contexts, with various languages being examined, i.e. Polish, Arabic, English,
French, German, and Spanish. Elevating our understanding of the interface of
science communication and crisis communication, this collection of articles
proves valuable to scholars and students from linguistics, communication
science, political science, sociology and philosophy of science.
