Description:

Maintaining a wide scope regarding the thematic, researchers that
delve into 1) discourse’s processes of transformation, 2) the
transformative effects of discourses, and or, 3) methods and
methodologies on transformative discourse studies, are welcomed at
DiscourseNet Winter School No 9. Our aim here is to collectively
re-think discourse theory and analysis from a transformative
perspective. To re-think our practices as academics, researchers,
professors and students that are interested in discourse studies,
having in mind the real and material effects of discourses.
The core interest of the DiscourseNet Winter School No 9 lies in
Transformation through and in:
- social and political struggles.
- de/post-colonial discourse studies.
- ecological and climate change discourses.
- The relation between social injustices and social transformation.
- The impact of transformative knowledge: tensions and opportunities
in the production of knowledge.
- The analysis of cultures of remembrance.
- Reflections on actors and spaces of change.
