Beyond the third space: hybrid language and identities as localized practices in late modern
Africa discourses
Banda, Felix
University of the Western Cape
South Africa
The paper aims to show that hybrid language use and hybrid identities are the norm in late modern Africa. Drawing
from online news publications and readers' comments, popular music lyrics and other discourses, the paper attempts
to show that the urbanizing African environment provides a window to evolving African discourse practices in which
traditional linguistic, ethnic, cultural and geographical boundaries (in the main products of colonial history) give way
to linguistic and semiotic practices that modernise the traditional, traditionalise the modern, localise the
international and internationalise the local, which are in turn repurposed (semiotically remediated) for transethnic,
translocal and transnational voice and actorhood. This transcendence across structures, it will be argued, leads
'disinvention' (Makoni and Pennycook 2007) of Africa (as a (post)colonial entity) and to the decentring of standard
English and standard African languages. The paper attempts to not only debunk the monolithic and purist
perspective of African culture and identity, but also supports a paradigm shift from looking at languages as made up
of regular, enumerate and differentiate systems, to language as multivocal and local(ised) practices; an identities as
multiple and hybrid. The implications for a number of sociolinguistic and cultural theoretical positions, of the
de-naturalisation of African nations, monolithic identities and African and colonial languages as bounded and
distinctive phenomena are thereafter discussed.

(How) do students adapt to multiple discourses on the multicultural in teacher education?
The case of student teachers in Finland
Dervin, Fred & Paavola, Heini
University of Helsinki
Finland
Discourses on the multicultural in education are many and varied – and often opposed and confusing. This paper
examines how Finnish students specializing in teacher education and taking a 35-credit program of multicultural
education deal with this confusing diversity of approaches, paradigms and methods. The program lasts for an
academic year at Master’s level and is taught by a variety of lecturers, whose approaches to questions of diversity,
interculturality and social justice appear to be somewhat similar but might differ in terms of conceptual,
methodological and analytical ways of working on these issues. In this paper we are interested in if and how the
students deal with this by analyzing the productions of three student teachers throughout the year for different
courses (and thus different lecturers). Our data consist of essays, short research projects produced by the students
but also interviews. Using an enunciative approach to analyze the data (Kerbrat-Orecchioni, 2002), we answer the
following questions: Do the students’ discourses on the multicultural change depending on their interlocutor
(different lecturers) in their productions? What changes? (How) do they adapt? What sort of problems are they
facing when doing so (ethics)? Are they fully aware of their ‘adaptation’? What are the potential consequences for
their understanding of the multicultural and its application in schools?

A Discourse Analysis of Jaarsumma, A Traditional Method Of Dispute Resolution by
Community Elders: Arsi Oromo in Focus
Disassa, Alemu
Adama Science and Technology University
Ethiopia
Jaarsumma, is a traditional method of dispute resolution by community elders among Oromo people. Although it has
been used for centuries as a major resource in resolving various types of conflicts and sustaining peace, little attempt
has been made to uncover the interactional features of jaarsumma. Hence, this study aims at analyzing the discourse
of the actual jaarsumma session and explicates the complexities and subtleties involved in it. It examines (1) the
genre structure or the dynamics of communication in Jaarsumma Discourse (JD); (2) the major persuasive discourse
strategies of the elders; (3) the nature of social power relationship in JD and (4) the dominant approaches of
mediation employed during jaarsumma.
To this end, twelve jaarsumma sessions were audio-recorded from three districts of West Arsi Zone: Arsi Nagelle,
Kofele and Shalla. In addition, observation, field notes, interviews, and informal discussions were used to collect data
on the broader socio-cultural background of jaarsumma. The analysis of the data was done at two levels by adopting
a socio-cultural approach to discourse analysis, Critical Discourse Analysis. Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics
was used for the textual level analysis and another two top-down approaches to discourse analysis: move analysis
and rhetorical appeals analysis have also been used to examine the schematic structures of JD and the elders’
strategies of persuasion respectively.
The analyses of both textual and contextual aspects of JD reveal that jaarsumma among Arsi Oromo has a rather
stable macrostructures with distinct communication patterns or styles. The results also reveal that the elders use
various persuasive discourse strategies primarily to appeal to disputants’ emotion through positive presentation of
self and the jaarsumma program. The analysis of the power relationship in JD also revealed that husbands have
absolute power over their wives in all aspects. Further, the analysis of JD indicates that the elders seem to have total
power over disputants.
Based on the above findings of the study, recommendations such as educating and economically empowering
women, giving awareness raising trainings for the elders on issues of gender rights and equalities, have been
suggested as part of an attempt to refine the jaarsumma practice. Finally, replication of same studies with large
corpus, comparative studies of court referred and normally held jaarsumma cases and cases from urban and rural
areas were suggested as potential focuses of further research in the area.

‘Big and Small’: International NGOs’ Discourses of Third World Poverty and Development
Dogra, Nandita
London School of Economics
UK
International NGOs play a significant role in our understanding of global inequalities through their portrayals of the
global poor and their discourses of global poverty and development. As highly trusted ‘institutions of representation’
they influence how we connect the global poor in the third world with our own lives in the developed world. The
paper is a part of a large study on this media role of UK-based international development NGOs (INGOs) such as
Oxfam, World Vision, Save the Children, ActionAid, Christian Aid, and Plan. The research reviews a recent annual
cycle of fundraising and advocacy communications of these NGOs publicised in UK’s national newspapers, direct
mails and websites. The analysis uses mixed methods- discourse analysis is complemented by semiotics and content
analysis.
In this paper, I analyse the discursive framings of the nature, scale and causes of global poverty and its solutions in
the form of aid and development. Drawing theoretically on postcolonialism and development, I discursively unpack
the associations, meanings and ideologies that emerge from the depictions of poverty, primarily as
underdevelopment, and its solutions. The discourse analysis shows that INGOs’ public messages construct ideas of
‘difference’ and ‘distance’ through dehistoricised and depoliticised framings of the causes of global poverty.
Theorised in particular ways, different aspects of global poverty are projected and reconciled across varied axes and a
range of representations of people and issues. Discourses deployed include naturalisation, medicalisation and
consumerism. At the same time, the representations suggest that despite the massive scale of third world poverty, its
solutions are relatively easy and simple. INGO representations work inter-textually in complex ways and connect the
global North and South in distinct ways.

Social Media Discourse and Multinational Corporations’ Corporate Social Responsibility in
China—The Case of ConocoPhilips Oil Spill Accident
Feng, Jieyun & Yin, Juelin & Wang, Yuyan
University of International Business & Economics
China
The study attempts to investigate the social media discourse and corporate social responsibility (CSR) crisis of
Multinational corporations (MNCs) in China, with a focus on the case of ConocoPhilips Oil Spill Accident in China
from June 2011 to February 2013. By adopting a holistic discourse analytic approach (Shi Xu, 2010), the study
investigated the three dimensions of discourse subject, discourse contents and discourse consequences concerning
Chinese public’s on-line comments about the incident and ConocoPhilips’ reactions. The data of the 932 randomly
sampled microblogs and blogs in the leading Chinese websites was collected and coded for the major themes. The
study found that in terms of discourse subject, the rise of social media is empowering and emancipating the once
underprivileged Chinese publics and ordinary Chinese have more discourse power than in the past. Regarding the
discourse contents, it is found that most microblogs and blogs of Chinese netizens were engaged in finding the
causes and laying the blame for the oil spill, and the primarily crisis attributors include the Chinese government
regulators, the ConocoPhillips company and the Chinese business partner of CNOOC. As to the discourse
consequences, the mounting on-line criticism about the crisis and the company’s little interest in engaging with
Chinese publics severely damaged the company’s corporate image. The study calls for MNCs in China to change the
old
mindset of only reporting crises to the government and treat the Chinese public as an important CSR
stakeholder. The study’s contribution lies in advocating a holistic approach to discourse studies and extending the
social media discourse focus to the traditional CSR study.

On Cultivating Students’ Awareness of Cultural Equality in the Discourse of China’s Rise in the
World
Huo, Hong (霍红)
Shanghai International Studies University; Yangzhou University
China
China, as a strong economic and political entity, has a glowing image in the world since it seems to burden itself with
the recovering of world economy, it seems to be on the run with many a decision in the United Nations, and it seems
to be philanthropic to the African brothers. However important it is in the stage of the economic and political world
may not guarantee its cultural renaissance which requires cultural equality with other cultures as the first step. Yet,
this is not easy. This involves self-dignity of everyone of our nation, our inner true respect of our own nation, and our
awareness of cultural equality. The first involvement may be person-related, the middle is about the power of our
nation, and the third is really what we, as language educators, have chances to cultivate and develop. Therefore, my
paper investigates what language educators in China can do in terms of cultivating students’ awareness of cultural
equality and how.

Organizational Discourses on Men, Gender and Development in Botswana
Joseph, Molefe Coper
University of Edinburgh
UK
This paper presents preliminary findings from a study which seeks to understand how civil society organizations in
Botswana perceive and respond to recent calls to engage men into gender approach to development. Botswana
continues to receive accolades as an ‘Africa success story’. Despite its achievements, the country is still faced with a
number of development challenges. Although Botswana has taken a number of steps towards fulfilling strategic goals
of empowering women, gender inequalities are still worrisome. Despite on-going lobbying activities by the gender
sector in Botswana, the Government of Botswana is reluctant to sign the 2008 SADC Protocol on Gender and
Development. The Government has reservations concerning the mandatory language used in the protocol and the
timeframes set for its implementation. However, there is of recent a growing interest by the Government of
Botswana and academics to research about men and masculine gender identities in the country. This new trend of
academic and policy research acknowledges lack of or inadequate attention given to men in promoting sexual and
reproductive health and in curbing gender-based violence. Institutionally, the Government of Botswana established
the Men Sector as a Sub-Committee of the National AIDS Council (NAC) established following a Presidential Directive
of 2000 which declared HIV/AIDS as a National Emergency. One of the specific objectives of the Men Sector is to
promote behavioural change among the male population of Botswana so that they can adopt positive lifestyles. In
terms of policy, the Government of Botswana with the support of United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has
developed a National Strategy and Programme of Action for Male Involvement in Sexual and Reproductive Health
and Rights, the Prevention of HIV/AIDS and Gender Based Violence. However, the involvement of men in sexual and
reproductive health is not the only gender concern in Botswana but the country has other gender-related issues.
Whilst some civil society actors argue for the need to engage men in gender and development by deconstructing
stereotypical discourses such as ‘dominant men’ and ‘passive women’, others caution against negative effects this
approach can have on efforts geared towards empowerment of women. Drawing from these preliminary findings and
from the general literature on men, masculinities, gender and development, this paper argues that gender equality in
its broader sense maybe attainable if ‘men’ are viewed as a diverse gendered category. This suggests adoption of the
intersectionality perspective in understanding how gender intersects with other social dimensions of power to
reinforce inequalities among women and among men.

Discourse of the “representation” of a “Third World Country” in press: Kenya in Austrian
and German newspapers in 2012
Lagiewka, Agata Joanna
Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
Spain
When it comes to the discourse of depicting reality in form of news about a country as a whole many factors come
into play. It is of importance to notice the role of dominant discourse coming from newspapers in the discourse of
multiculturalism. Representing a rather populist approach when narrating worldwide events and occurrences it is in
particular interesting to take a look at the narration of news about a so called “Third World Country” such as Kenya.
Having visited Kenya to take part in a non-profit educational program I myself was confronted with questioning my
reality and perception versus the other realities faced with and my previous assumption and knowledge gathered
from media and other information sources. Seemingly small groups of people from media publishing houses and
their representatives on paper “inform” and share light in the sense of “knowledge” of absolute truth. Taking the
critical discourse into consideration it is therefore this kind of news informing that produces our understanding of
how the “normal Third World Country” Kenya is and shows us in its portrayal what is different, less relevant and “the
other”, where you only hear news from if it is terrible and different to “our world”. It is especially the use of language
and writing in oppositions that reinforces the position of the reader as privileged and the depicted ones as not
although it is only due to this binaries that news can be created as seeming different and it comes to no surprise that
it is not often that the reader can read counternarratives of those described and “presented” in news as if they were
not able to accurately speak for themselves.

The Imperial Ways of Globalism: Women’s Studies in Romania
Mudure, Michaela
Babes-Bolyai University
Romania
Globalization obliges us to take into consideration the reality that one cannot talk about feminism, but about
feminisms. In case of East/ Central European countries (Romania included) we cannot neglect the evidence that most
of the countries belonging to this geograpy have gone through an incomplete process of modernization and,
consequently, postmodernism has its own specificity here. The development of the feminist discourse is seen as part
of the postmodern revolt of the margin against the center.
Under the circumstances of globalization, it is necessary to pay more attention to the issues of power within the
feminist movement. Reiterating the traditional, imperialist pyramid-like structures of power within the feminist
movement is a mistake, though the temptation is tremendous, and the alternative is still very much a
“work-in-progress”. Women’s studies specialists must theorize and implement as much as possible a new structure of
power, maybe a web-like one. Otherwise, the advantages that women’s studies can benefit from in the new global
age will be outnumbered by several theoretical and ethical disadvantages, and by the domination of the most
“powerful” feminisms. The broader transformations in the universities of Central and Eastern Europe, specifically, in
their relation to the state, to the European community, and to the contemporary political practices of imperialism,
in-form both Gender Studies and the wider reconfigurations of the academic knowledge projects based on Gender
Studies.
This paper will explore the challenges that both globalism and the new imperial practices pose to gender studies in
Romania, as a case study. More precisely, Central/Eastern European feminists should develop their own discourse,
relying less on the theoretical apparatus of Western feminisms which respond to the needs of other societies and
appeared in other cultural, social, and political circumstances.

Converging Approaches to Multiplicity: Between Cultures, Within the Self, and Within
Psychoanalytic Theory
Saporta, Jose
Harvard Medical School
USA
There is a converging approach to multiplicity on different levels and in varied domains of discourse. Varied positions,
perspectives, voices, modes of discourse, ways of knowing – within and between persons and communities, within
and between clinical theories and academic disciplines. Different voices speak to the ethical and practical value to
standing in-between or holding differences in dialogue. I will discuss examples from socio-cultural psychology,
discourse theory, and clinical psychology and psychoanalysis which advocate communication or dialogue within
multiplicity. I present a model for how dialogue leads to meaning change in psychotherapy which might apply to
communities and theoretical perspectives. The model applies a form of communication which Mikhail Bakhtin called
“internally persuasive discourse” as a way to understand how dialogue leads to new meaning in new contexts for
persons, communities, and theoretical perspectives. In all of these domains meaning making is more complex,
flexible and adaptive with multiple positions or perspectives which can be applied to varied local circumstances. The
ethical value of the legitimate other is a generalized meaning in the wider context which guides situated
communication and dialogue in the direction advocated here. Contemporary psychoanalysis can contribute to this
discussion through its study of the texture of inter-subjectivity, by elucidating the relationship between personal,
idiosyncratic meaning and meaning and discourse at different levels of community, and by suggesting factors which
interfere with inter-subjective discourse. I suggest two communicative patterns which can be problematic:
misapplied discourse from one domain to another; and restricted discourse leading to lack of recognition of the
other.

Digital Memories of National Humiliation: The Nanjing Massacre on the Web
Schneider, Florian
University of Leiden
The Netherlands
With more internet users than Europe has residents, the Chinese digital sphere is rapidly becoming a highly diverse
network of expression, discussion, and contestation. In digital China, networked actors ranging from state agencies
and CCP organizations to private netizens, engage in highly active online communication, thereby influencing public
discourse. Yet as diverse as this discourse may be, political content on the Chinese web is clustered around a small
number of recurring themes. One central online political discourse is nationalism.Netizens commenting on
international affairs often angrily denounce perceived humiliations of the nation (guochi) while advocating
patriotism (aiguozhuyi), thereby contributing to the construction of a national community.
A prominent topic in this discourse is Sino-Japanese history, which extends to present-day current affairs, such as
ongoing territorial disputes. As Austin and Harris write, “relations between Japan and China continue to be
overshadowed by the history of war between them”.This paperasks: How do networked actors use Information and
Communication Technologies (ICTs) to shape nationalist discourse in the People’s Republic of China (PRC), vis-à-vis
Japan as foreign Other?Combining quantitative and qualitative methods, it examinesone specific case: the networks
surroundingthe Nanjing Massacre of 1937. This issue network continuously generates online debate, yet mainly
through actors and resources that are relatively stable over time (e.g. the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, Chinese
Communist Youth League, etc). By using digital tools, such as the issuecrawler software, the paper shows how these
different actors are linked together, and how interest groups and individuals use digital infrastructures to shape
public discourse on national history.It further explores what statements different actors make on the topic by
subjecting the relevant websites to a qualitative multi-modal discourse analysis. The case study will demonstrate
how Chinese animosities towards Japan are reworked in the service of community building, an activity beneficial
both to the state and to private actors, although often for very different reasons. It will further allow for an
assessment of how effective digital tools are in exploring these processes as they unfold in Chinese-language issue
networks in the PRC.

CULTURAL DISCOURSE STUDIES
Shi-xu
Zhejiang University
China
Cultural Discourse Studies (CDS) is simultaneously an academic movement, an intellectual trend, and a kindred set of
paradigms in discourse/communication studies that are characterized by a profound concern with diversified yet
divided human cultures. These manifest in the form of (a) participation by culturally conscious and critical scholars
especially from the developing countries and regions, (b) growing intellectual orientation of de-westernising and
de-colonising everyday and academic discourses, and (c) (re-)creation of culturally particular and diversified modes of
research and corresponding investigations into discourse and communication especially to do with non-Western
communities. Inspired by non-Western experiences, aspirations and approaches, as well as ideas from cultural
studies, the ethnography of communication, critical intercultural communication studies and many other disciplines,
this new breed of scholarship proceeds from the basic assumption that contemporary human discourses are sites of
cultural differentiation, contestation, cooperation and transformation. Consequently, it strives as general mission and
goal to achieve culturally conscious and critical insights into human discourses. CSD has yielded fruitful and
practicable insights into the properties, problems and potentials of culturally divergent discourses on the one hand
and widened international scholarly understanding on the other hand.

New media, old power: challenging elite discourse through digitally augmented activism
Unger, J. W
Lancaster University
UK
This paper will discuss how and why activists use digital media such as microblogs and websites to contest and
subvert the discourse produced by powerful institutions and disseminated via traditional media. By presenting the
results of a discourse-historical analysis of several campaigns aimed at governments and multinational businesses,
questions are raised about traditional understandings of how power is enacted and constructed in the contemporary
media landscape. In particular, the acceleration of global flows of information via social media, within and between
different cultures, is shown to problematize the notion that ‘elite’, static texts are the best objects of analysis for
critical discourse studies. Instead, scholars need a new inventory of tools that can handle dynamic, constantly
changing texts, often produced, reproduced and recontextualised by multiple authors and interpretable only by texts.
At the same time, more traditional notions of media power have not become irrelevant, and political and economic
elites are undoubtedly still central in framing public discourse. Increasingly, however, traditional media such as
newspapers or television interact with digital media in complex, and often also dynamic ways. It is these interactions
between ‘old’ and ‘new’ that prove the most fruitful sites of analysis: in particular, through close analysis of which
contesting voices and frames are taken up in traditional media, and which are ignored.

Naming the ‘Pandemic’: The Zambian People’s Attitudes and Perceptions on HIV/AIDS as
Embodied in HIV/AIDS Concepts
Wakumelo, Mildred Nkolola
University of Witwatersrand
South Africa
The AIDS pandemic is one of the most pressing health problems in Zambia. Since the emergence of the HIV/AIDS
pandemic in Zambia in 1980s it has attracted a lot of attention in terms of research. Most of this research has been
from the medical perspective with the main focus being on establishing infection rates, coming up with measures to
help prevent further infections and the spread of the pandemic and minimising the stigmatisation of the condition
and people infected with the pandemic. However there has been no study that has been conducted to analyse the
‘language’ of HIV/AIDS. This is despite the fact that since the emergence of this pandemic the local people have come
up with and continue to use various concepts and metaphors to communicate the message of HIV/AIDS. This paper is
a first attempt in the country to try and look at the language used by the Zambian people with reference to HIV/AIDS.
Specifically the paper looks at the concepts that the Zambian people use with reference to the pandemic. The paper
will discuss the implications of the language on HIV/AIDS and how the stigmatising and stereotypical HIV/AIDS
discourses reveals the Zambian people’s perceptions, attitudes and behaviour towards AIDS. It will be shown that
probably HIV/AIDS prevention programs are not producing expected results because they have not recognised the
significance of the ‘language’ factor in their programs.

Chinese discursive practice in response to US anti-dumping trade sanctions: A case study of
solar energy products
Wu, Doreen D. & Feng, Wei
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
& Business College of Shanxi University
China
China is becoming one of the common targets for global anti-dumping trade sanctions; nonetheless, the related
discursive practice is very much under-researched, despite Shi-xu’s (2010) pioneering work on trade conflict
discourse between China and the Europe. The investigation of how Chinese people express and react in response to
the imposed anti-dumping sanctions is essential to reveal contemporary Chinese social situations as well as the
beliefs, values and ideologies of Chinese people. Integrating the approaches by Shi-xu (2010) and by Fairclough
(1995), the study presents scrutiny of triple discourse sources of data: official, mainstream media and enterprises.
With both the macro-analysis of ideologies and social practice and the micro-analysis of linguistic features, the paper
attempts to unveil the causality and intertwined relationships between the Chinese social practice, ideology and
discursive practice.
The findings indicate that: (1) The social environment in China (i.e., the political system incorporated with Chinese
culture) does have a strong impact on what has been said and what not have been said, and why is such a case; (2)
Chinese officials and businesses have been weak to make rightful appeals and fight for trade protectionism and US
economic hegemony; (3) The Chinese discursive practices are far from sufficient, effective and tough. The study
concludes with a discussion of the low efficiency of the government and industry associations and of the traditional
indirect and self-critical national characters on the Chinese discursive practice; Furthermore we call for further
efforts in developing paradigms of researching international trade disputes.

Time dimension and intercultural communication
Alpatova, Svetlana
State University of Management
Moscow
Time dimension is viewed as the category of time which is reflected in linguistic and socio- cultural changes
accumulated and paid attention to in order to teach cross-cultural communication successfully. The current research
is devoted to the look into the nature of some convergences towards standard and non-standard linguistic items as a
natural response to the current conditions. Assuming that the language we use while delivering lectures, writing
articles, or taking part in the conferences or cross-culturally speaking is something unnatural that requires not only
efforts to be well understood but also the necessary knowledge to select its proper form on the spur of the moment.
In the era of globalization the idea of a perfect language is transformed into the notion of appropriate
communicative standards and their variants. On the one hand there exists a model, a code of the language at a given
period of time on the other – some requirements needed to be fulfilled if we want to communicate effectively.

The aim of this working paper is to present the economic participation of the Turkish women after the founding of
the Republic Turkey. The paper is based on the international literature and on values of the statistical office of the
Republic Turkey. The analysis shows that Turkish society had a negative opinion of working women, especially in the
middle-class and upper-class. Meanwhile it has definitely changed but the discrimination continues in the economic
world. This not only includes the salary, also the employment conditions because if women get a job, it is in regularly
under their qualification. Thereby the employers use arguments which were spread in the mid of the 1960s.

Type of discourse marker in spoken and written narrative discourse in Persian
Azimnejad Fahime & Taki, Giti
University of Sistan and Baluchestan,
Iran
In everyday life, different people speak to each other in various situations. Most of their speeches such as:
storytelling, memories, events, biographies,…constitute narrative discourse which has its own specific structure.
Labov (1972) classifies different parts of a narrative discourse as: abstract, orientation, actions, evaluations,
resolution and coda.Different elements in discourse create cohesion between the parts of a narrative discourse. One
of the most important elements is discourse marker which is used for connecting different parts of a discourse. This
research introduces discourse markers in written and spoken narrative discourse in Persian according to
Schiffrin(1987). Also it analyses different types of discourse markers in these discourses. For this purpose, some
samples of spoken and written discourse from newspapers and TV programs are chosen and surveyed. The
quantitative and qualitative analysis of data revealed the high frequency of discourse markers in spoken narrative
discourse.In addition, the type of discourse markers is affected by spoken and written narrative discourse.

Folk healing, health and disease: intercultural phenomenon of civilization
Beltrán, Ignacio Ramos
National University Autonomous of México
Mexico
An essential question that arises every human being at one time or another is: Who am I? The question can be posed
for different reasons, however, when we get that question by appealing to health, disease and attention, we realize
that human complexity makes a border crossing between different knowledge. The work with urban healers in
Mexico shows one way in which to answer the question before realized. Research conducted a series of observations
and descriptions of the way in which different conceptions of the human body and of the human being are held by
individuals even within the same country. So the creation of alternative conceptions of living in the world is an
everyday phenomenon for mankind, which has been emphasized by anthropology for many years, since every field
of study in which man appears, has infinitely variables components. Practices and beliefs of individuals respond to a
logic and to a particular way of giving order to the world. Terms such as diversity, multiculturalism, otherness, have
been of great help in understanding the ongoing game transactions that occur between individuals who have
different conceptions and knowledge of everyday life. The main concepts that are used in this work to achieve a
greater understanding of the issues raised are: multiculturalism, folk healing, medical model, knowledge, transaction
processing, collective memory.

Cultural Politics of Interculturalism
Bozic-Vrbancic, Senka & Vrbancic, Mario
The University of Zadar
Croatia
In 2008, the Intercultural Cities project, a joint initiative of the European Commission and the Council of Europe, was
launched within the framework of the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue. The key elements of the Intercultural
City model comprised an examination of “policies in fields as diverse as education, housing, policing, the labour
market and urban development … in order to develop a more coherent strategy for public policy and civil society
engagement in a culturally diverse city”. Today, the Intercultural Cities project involves 36 different cities, not just
from Europe but from other parts of the world (China, Australia…). In this paper we analyse these attempts to
measure and observe the “interculturality” of different cities within theoretical frameworks of the post-Foucauldian
governmentrality approach and the anthropology of policy that stress that public policies actively constitute social
reality. In line with this approach, by asking what role European and international measuring of interculturality play,
we are considering cultural programmes like Intercultural Cities as a discursive form of social action on a
supranational level. More specifically we ask: (1) what does it mean to talk about interculturalism in Europe on a
supranational level and (2) what are the presumed values from which a city is marked as being intercultural (what
counts as diversity)? (3)What kind of politics are inscribed, and what form of fantasies and contradictions are
performed through the process of measuring cities as intercultural?

Developmentalist Solidarity: Representing BRICS Countries in China
Cao, Qing
Durham University
UK
BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) countries account for one third of the world's population and a
quarter of the world's land area. They contributed a combined nominal GDP of 13.6 trillion U.S. dollars in 2011 19.5% of the world's total. In the past 15 years, their share of the global GDP has increased threefold. The BRICS
economies also contribute to the shift of balance of power to non-Western countries since the ascent of Europe five
centuries ago. But how BRICS countries perceive each other in a changing global economic and political order
remains a much under-researched area. This paper examines the Chinese representation of the other four BRICS
countries through a case study of an 8-part Chinese Central Television (CCTV) documentary series, BRICS Countries
(金砖之国) broadcast in 2011.
The paper delineates the series’ key discursive themes, interpretations of the challenges faced by BRICS countries,
their developmental experiences and strategies, but crucially solidarity constructed in the series between China and
the other BRICS countries. Throughout the study, the primary focus is placed on interrelationship between portrayals
of rising non-Western economies and a search for developmental paths that China is keen to explore. It also
considers discursive structures of Chinese pragmatic and non-ideological perspective in looking at global issues.
Applying a corpus linguistics-based discourse analysis, the paper presents a detailed description, interpretations and
assessment of the series’ thematic focus on major developmental issues by analysing key words and their clusters
that convey dominant messages to the audience. It concludes with reflections on interactions between the portrayal
of BRICS countries and China’s own emerging international identities.

A Study on Phonetic Variations of Kazak Language in Xinjiang
Cao, Xianghong & Liu, Shaohua
Xinjiang Normal University
China
This paper draws on an ethnographic study on phonetic variations of Kazak language influenced by Chinese in
Xinjiang and social differentiation of the variations. The experimental data were collected in a tri-generation family of
Kazak in Urumqi, the capital city of Xinjiang. The analysis shows that there has been an obvious influence of Chinese
on Kazak language by native speakers of Kazak in this area:1) there is the addition of one syllable after ending k, the
loss of vowel before w, and weakening of r. Such variations mainly occur due to the differences between the
consonant systems of Chinese and Kazak; 2) Kazak speakers show variances in reading Chinese loanwords. Such
phonetic variances in Chinese loanwords indicate that there has been an unbalanced influence of Chinese on Kazak
language. 3) The phonetic variations of Kazak are related with speakers’ age, occupations and educational
backgrounds. This paper provides theoretical references for formulating the corresponding language regulations and
language planning in minority regions. It might be also helpful in the general understanding of the Xinjiang
Kazak community and the Xinjiang society .

论作为文化表征的话语理论
Cao, Xiaoxin (曹小欣)
Yangzhou University
China
本文拟在文化研究视域下，论述话语理论从语言学层面走向超语言的文化表征层面，拟在梳理“话语”概念的理
论发展演变后，结合文化表征的理论内涵，分析作为文化表征的话语与身份认同、权力意识、大众诉求三者
之间的互动关系。同时，进一步思考作为文化表征的话语理论的立场所在和价值担当，力求在当下复杂的现
实环境中建立具有积极意义、以人文关怀为终极目标的话语体系和形态。
第一章对话语理论进行理论溯源。19 世纪末 20 世纪初，语言学领域的“话语”是一个较为宽泛的概念。受索绪
尔为代表的结构主义语言学的影响，文学研究领域也将文学语言的特殊规律推到研究的核心地位。俄国形式
主义提出的“文学性”成为文学研究的本体而得到关注。之后的结构主义理解的“文学性”则不再直接面向实际的
文学作品与具体的文学语言，而是文学普遍结构的显示。
第二章主要研究话语理论的文化学转向。在“话语”概念的演变过程中，这一概念逐渐从语言学和文学理论领域
拓展到整个社会文化领域，具有了超语言层面的内涵。巴赫金关注现实存在的语言，将语言、话语视作人类
生活的全部，对抽象客观主义以及个人主观主义的语言观进行了批判，并在此基础上重新定义了“话语”概念。
福柯则将“话语”概念与“权力”相联系，开启了话语理论的文化学转向。
第三章主要研究话语理论的文化表征形态。
（一）话语与权力意识。对“话语”与“权力”关系的重视以及对“权力”
内涵的进一步阐发成为话语理论的重要生长点之一。
（二）话语与身份认同——对华裔流散文学的探讨。
（三）
话语与大众诉求——网络流行语背后的大众文化心态。
第四章主要研究话语理论的文化价值与理论困境。进入文化研究下的话语理论拓展了很多学科的理论视域，
尤其是福柯的话语理论为人文社会科学提供了方法论意义上的启示。在文学研究领域，福柯的话语理论竭力
彰显世界的文本性，这无疑为文学研究打开了新的方向，另一方面也为作为文本的文学打开了一个面向整个
社会文化的开阔领地。但是在当下的文化研究中，在特定领域对具体文本的分析中，话语理论的运用也常常
不免有理论先行与过度阐释之嫌，如何摆脱这一理论困境成为值得思考的问题。

Heritage” curriculum? (2) How does research as inquiry promote learning? (3) What is the teacher’s role in
research-based curriculum in this case? (4) What enlightenment this ethnography brings to English teaching?
Through two semesters’ observation and participation with my subjects, the researcher has collected a huge quantity
of data by observing a group, interviewing a group of students and the teacher, photographing a group’s fieldwork,
reviewing the teaching videos, and writing fieldwork stories etc. This class featured by research-based and group
learning, offers students an opportunity to learn from practice and from learner community so as to open a door to
different ways of seeing the world, here cultural heritage. But for a beginner, learning like a researcher is not an easy
thing. My main character Cyndi and her group experienced confusion and failure, as well as joys and inspiration, so
that they finally found the key to be a researcher, that is meaning-making. From their challenging learning experience,
this study strives to see how research-based curriculum integrates autonomous learning and cooperative learning
and how research as inquiry promotes students’ transformation subtly. Finally this ethnographic study aims not only
to provide students knowing’s transformation in inquiring research’s and the curriculum’s meaning, by
meaning-making in various interpretations, practices and Beings, but also to bring some insights for today’s English
teaching and learning as well as disciplinary transition in higher education.

Memetics provides a powerful new way to explore the multimodal advertising discourse. This paper, based on theory
of Memetics, has discussed the multimodal advertising discourse from the perspective of the replication and
transmission of memes and put forward that Memetics can lead advertisers to take into account the existence of
memes and understand how word, picture, sound, color work together to create successful memes. The purpose of

from various cultures and countries, especially those not from the English Speaking countries. On the basis of careful
analysis on the data collected, it was found that the respondents’ overall language attitude towards the English
varieties did not change, while the prejudices observed from the volunteers were generally implied, and the
resources of prejudice were subtle and complicated. If roughly classified, the reasons for prejudice were
“over-generalization” and” hidden bias ”. There were stereotypes and prejudice towards the foreign visitors, which
hammered both the better understanding of the foreign cultures as well as the competence of effective intercultural

Approaches to “Ordinary Residence”: A Hong Kong Perspective
Cheng, Le & He, Lianzhen
Zhejiang University
China
This paper analyses a landmark case on ordinary residence in Hong Kong - the Evangeline Banao Vallejos case, the
ruling was handed down on 30 September 2011 for the applicant - a Philippine domestic helper who has lived in
Hong Kong for more than twenty years. The Court claimed to use the common law approach – a “natural and
ordinary” approach to the interpretation of “ordinary residence” and declared the unconstitutionality of the
restrictions imposed by the Department of Immigration of Hong Kong on the imported foreign domestic helpers in
their seeking permanent residency in Hong Kong. One of the key arguments in the Court’s ratio decidendi is that a
“natural and ordinary approach” is inherently related to the common law system. This study examines all the
reported cases on ordinary residence in the purpose of examining the approaches used therein and surveys the
approaches to legal interpretation adopted in the common law jurisdictions via literature review. The findings show
that the approaches to legal interpretation are not necessarily constrained by the legal systems rather a mechanism
for the courts to solve the case-to-cases disputes, and that the adoption of a specific approach in a particular case is
a socio-semiotic rather than a purely jurisprudential operation. Such findings lead us to conjecture up the prospects
of the cases alike.

Gender Ideology and Identity Construction Through Discourse
Cui, Yanying
Renmin University
China
Gender is constructed by the society with the help of different individuals, groups and social institutions. Language is
a basic tool for identity construction. Discourse, as one of linguistic unit, is no exception. Discourse also embeds
gender identity. Our sense of gendered selves, Talbot (1998) writes, “is constituted in discourse”, illustrating that
people are not “passively shaped” into gendered beings, but “are active in their own construction”. In other words,
gender is an outcome of social construction. Discourse is a material form of carrying out gendered norms within a
given society. In 1997, sociolinguists Shari Kendall and Deborah Tannen write of the “social construction’ paradigm”
of gender and discourse research. They explain that, “in this paradigm, gendered identities are maintained and
(re-)created through social practices, including language practices”. Kendall and Tannen reiterate West and
Zimmerman when they argue that “individuals are active producers of gendered identities rather than passive
reproducers of socialized gender behavior”. So many people have paid so much attention to the construction of
gender identity through discourse, however, has anyone ever kept their eyes on gender ideology? Gender ideology is
a system of beliefs by which people explain, account for and justify their bahaviour. It also informs and guides the
interpretation and assessment of the gender behaviour by setting norms. It may serve as some guidelines for the
construction of gender identity, otherwise the construction may be blind and lose itself. Therefore, gender identity is
not only the outcome of construction,but the result of gender ideology. This paper purports to show the entailment
of gender ideology in gender identity construction by way of discourse.

Brazilian Human Rights and their justification in the media: an analyses of the controversy
involving public policy "PNDH-3"
De Oliveira, Vanessa Veiga & Maia, Rousiley C.M.
Federal University of Minas Gerais or UFMG
Brazil
This work aims to investigate decisions involving human rights policies in Brazil, focusing on the types of justifications
displayed in the national mainstream media. Based on deliberative theories of democracy, it investigates the
discourses in dispute in the Third National Program for Human Rights (PNDH-3), latest policy on Human Rights,
presented under Lula’s government. The PNDH-3 was developed through popular participation and represents a
Brazilian government's response to the demands of civil society and the pressures of international organizations. It
was considered quite controversial and received harsh criticism from several sectors of Brazilian society - such as the
Church, the military force, the media and agribusiness - which led to alter their bids.
The theory of deliberative democracy affirms that preference changes are expected as a result of a process of debate,
based on a public discussion, involving a wide range of participants and the critical use of reason. Our study case is
relevant to discuss: i) the ambivalent effects of publicity; ii) the contestation of discourses based on the common
good or on self-interest in the mediated debate; and iii) the significance of the decision’s change to the meaning on
Human Rights in Brazil. Our work uses a systemic approach to articulate debates that occurs in the media arena with
the decisions taken in the State’s and Civil Society’s domains, to demonstrate the interdependence relationship that
exists between these deliberative arenas in the production of political decisions.
To evince the reasons given for changing the PNDH-3, we analyse discourses about the program in major national
printed news media (Estado de Minas, Folha de São Paulo and O Globo) and TV news (National Journal, Journal of
Band, Journal of Record). We use the method DQI (Discourse Quality Index) developed by Steiner et al (2004), to
assess the justificatives of the speeches.

Contrastive Discourse Analysis: Reflexive Steps
Donahue, Ray T.
Nagoya Gakuin University
Japan
Contrastive discourse analysis reflexively done can help ensure effective results. Several interpretative problems,
however, stand in the way. One is that for cross--‐cultural situations, people tend to make culture the default
attribution for human behavior. Culture is thought the cause of nearly everything behavioral. People reason that
cultural difference is the manifest of intercultural relationships and so therefore, it must be culture (cultural
difference) that explains the behavior of foreign people (or texts). Overlay this tendency with cultural stereotypes
and a structural approach to language, a bedrock of even mainstream linguistics today, then contrastive discourse
analysis will likely produce confounded or noncomparable results. The antidote is cultural reflexivity or
contextualization by which observational or procedural biases can be ameliorated, but requires intermediate steps
for attainment. These intermediate steps involve certain principles for comprehensive discourse analysis and
demonstrated through example contrastive texts.

Study of National Identity in Human Rights Reports: From the Order of Discourse and
Intertextuality Perspective
Dong, Pingrong (董平荣) & Sui, Haibing (隋海兵)
Chongqing University

In the 2011 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices issued by the State Department of the United States of
America, there are 194 separate reports on 194 countries (areas) respectively. Taking executive summaries of the
reports as text, discourse practice and social practice, this project attempts to analyze the interrelationship between
political discourse and national identity construction. In terms of the order of discourse and the intertextuality
respectively, it aims to explore the conventional and innovative patterns of national identity construction.
The national identity theory is the core theory of the constructivism in western international relations theory. As one
type of identity study in social science, national identity possesses both essentialised and constructionist quality. In
certain discourse practice, these two types of national identity are supposed to be mapped to the order of discourse
and the intertextuality which are the core conceptions of Fairclough critical discourse analysis paradigm. This project
is focused on analysing: (1) linguistic content and form of the text; (2) discourse as power; (3) discourse as ideology.
The project hopes to integrate the research methods in linguistic and social studies to enrich identity construction
theory. Moreover, through the textual analysis of the 2011 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices issued by the
State Department of the USA, this project is expected to reveal the political and economical motivation and the
ideological combat hidden behind these reports.

At the Women's Conferences and the accompanying NGO Conferences the attendees presupposed the
Declaration as a basis and with their cultural experiences regarding the status of and experience of women from
many geographies, economic and social situations, legal systems, religious backgrounds and educational levels

As Perceived from Stage Directions of Death of a Salesman
Fang, Ying (方颖)
Shanghai International Studies University
China
Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller is a classic masterpiece of American literature. This paper starts with an
analysis of the skillful design of its stage directions, which plays a critical role in the construction of the dynamic
contexts in the play. Then, with the pragmatic speech act assumption and, especially, the turn-taking model as the
theoretical perspective, and with the conversations between Willy and his elder son Biff which occur respectively in
Willy’s recollections and in the present real time as the samples, the paper analyses and summarizes the ways in
which the conversations adapt with dynamic contexts, focusing on the different choice of speech acts and the related
conversation features. Such pragmatic adaptations contribute to the success of the play in terms of its
characterization, the creation of its tragic atmosphere and the expression of its underlying thematic idea.
Key words: stage directions, dynamic contexts, turn-taking analysis model, speech acts, pragmatic adaptations

Gendered Language Practices in the Global World: Female Experience of Moroccan Women in
Madrid and Catalonia Region
Fernández, Tulay Martínez
Universitat Oberta de Catalunya
Spain
Language constitutes both the medium of everyday communication and an important social and economic capital.
Spain, a multilingual country which has only few decades of experience as an immigration country is an interesting
research area to analyze language acquisition and social integration phenomenon not only for its multilingual
language structure and duality in second language acquisition in some autonomous states such as Catalonia, but also
for the recent challenges posed on the immigrant communities by the ongoing economic crisis, which triggers
reorganization of the family members’ roles in the immigrant families. Not surprisingly, this reality has an important
effect on language practices of the immigrant women, which is the main interest of this research. In this ongoing
ethnographical work realized in Madrid and Barcelona since 2011, I explore the complex language practices of
immigrant women of Moroccan origin and explain the ways that political economy, gender roles and language
practices intersect, trigger or hinder each other in the lives of these women.

Bourdieu’s theory of practice has been academically well established, accepted and also applied worldwide. This
paper attempts to find out some of the problems or counter-examples of Bourdieu’s major concepts “capital, field
and habitus” while being applied in our country. It aims to reflect upon these concepts’ general applicability in order
to perfect or improve some of Bourdieu’s concepts in his theory of practice. Through a comparative analysis of
different groups in China, some research findings show that inconsistencies or counter-examples of these concepts
do exist. New concepts like “motivation” and “time and space”, are being proposed and promoted to fill in the gap
that “capital, field and habitus” has somewhat failed to achieve.

Does China have science in the ancient time: A Question on Joseph Needham Question
Gao, Jian
Shanghai International Studies University
China
As an unprecedented leading scholar in the study of Chinese traditional thoughts in science and technology, Joseph
Needham is famous not only for his extraordinary introduction to the traditional Chinese thoughts in science but for
the very contentious “Joseph Needham Question”: Why did China fail to develop into a modern nation characterized
by science and democracy since technology and science had been very much advanced in ancient China?
Many scholars intend to make a satisfactory reply to “Joseph Needham Question”, while they forget to question its
validity. Can we label Chinese practical skills in the ancient society as the origin of science and technology although
they have much in common? To further this question, what perspective we shall take in cross-culture studies so as to
avoid being misled by stereotyped ideas and preoccupations? A historical and comprehensive view in cross-culture
studies is highlighted for an in-depth analysis of cultural differences.

Pedagogy of Encounter – A Conceptual Exploration
Gill, Scherto
University of Sussex/Guerrand-Hermès Foundation for Peace
UK
This article seeks to identify a newer form of pedagogical discourse necessitated by today’s internationalisation in
higher education (IHE) and argues that the salient ideas in Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics can provide a
compelling conceptual underpinning for what is proposed as Pedagogy of Encounter.
It starts with a focused literature review to highlight the priority of renewed IHE pedagogy, especially as it applies to
the increased international students’ mobility and growing intercultural and cross-cultural dialogue in higher
education. The review suggests that the essence of intercultural adaptation/learning and dialogue lies in the richness
and depth of students’ encounter and experience while abroad, including encountering diversity in habits of
learning, cultural practices, ways of thinking, values and worldviews. Thus the recognition of this need for profound
encounter and intercultural dialogue poses a significant pedagogical challenge for IHE institutions.
So this article goes on to explore and analyse key ideas in Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics as a response to the
above challenge, including the conception of bildung as self-formation/becoming, the importance of encountering
‘alien’/strangeness, the concept of ‘fusion of horizon’, reciprocity in interpretative dialogue and understanding as
bounded by language and discourse. Together, these form a powerful philosophical foundation for what is defined as
‘pedagogy of encounter’.
This article concludes that genuine intercultural adaptation/learning demands putting into practice pedagogy of
encounter and proposes that personal narratives, empathetic listening and intercultural dialogue be integrated in
teaching and learning of IHE as the bedrock of international education and collaboration.

Identity, human rights and translation in the multilingual/multicultural city
Giuliana, Garzone
Università degli Studi di Milano
Italy
The translation of legal and administrative documents – an especially problematic activity aimed at producing
equivalent versions of texts which are deeply rooted in the cultural and ethical values of the communities involved –
represents a vantage point to identify and appreciate cultural specificities and differences.
This paper discusses the issues that emerged in the drafting of the official Italian translation of the Montréal Charter
of Rights and Responsibilities, a document adopted by the Montréal City Council, in force since January 1, 2006,
which sets forth the rights of all Montrealers and the civic values underlying them, as well as their responsibilities.
This document, inspired to a whole range of previous official documents establishing human rights at a supranational,
national or local level, first and foremost the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), is unique in that it
defines new relations between the city and its citizens, establishing the latter’s “right to the city”. It has a special
significance being aimed at guaranteeing equal access to rights and responsibilities to a highly multiethnic,
multiculturual and multilingual population.
Originally produced in Québec’s official languages, French and English, the Charter has been translated into Spanish,
Arabic and Mandarin, as well as into Italian. This was done by a team I led, in collaboration with James Archibald of
McGill University, who coordinates all the different teams working on the various translations.
The project itself, which envisages that the Charter be translated into many different languages, apart from the two
official languages of Québec, testifies to the inherent multilingual and multicultural character of the city and is
evidence of the municipal administration’s sensitivity towards diversity and cultural/ethnic complexity.
As is to be expected for a text that is essentially legal in character, has administrative implications, and deals with
human rights, the Charter contains a whole range of linguistic expressions referring to culturally bound notions.
Some of these are what Archibald (2012) calls “politèmes”, others are “culturemes” (as they are called in Descriptive
Translation Studies), both categories typically referring to concepts that are “cut” according to the classification lines
peculiar to the culture the relevant language is originally associated with.
In this paper the discussion of these crucial notions in the context of the Charter is carried out by comparing the
French and English versions, and discussing them with a view to their translation into Italian.
This is preceded by an analysis of how such culturally bound notions are discursively constructed in the original text,
as a preliminary step to shedding light on the values and beliefs they convey.

From the intercultural, to the transcultural: impact on the discursive practices
Haidar, Julieta
National School of Anthropology and History
Mexico
First of all, in this paper it seems important to consider the differences between multiculturalism, interculturalism
and transculturalism, since these concepts are used in various fields and involve different explanatory aspects.
Secondly, it is very important to stop us in the category of discursive practices, with which the discursive dimension
reaches another status in socio-cultural life.
Cultural research that go beyond the field of anthropology and integrate those of history, politics, the economy,
among others, the two first categories seeking to relate the different cultures, are those of multiculturalism or
pluriculturalism, that fail to discuss internal and external cultural heterogeneity. Subsequently, comes the category of
interculturality, in order to deepen the relations between different cultures, to reveal the conflicts and tensions that
are generated in these exchanges, with the intensification of migratory processes, from cultural, economic and
political globalization. But the category, that acquires greater scope for the analysis of these complex cultural
processes, is that of transculturation, which emerged in the 1990s, and remains so far, although still of
interculturality is the most widespread.
Secondly, intercultural and transcultural processes, it is essential to highlight the importance of discursive practices
and of semiotics, integrating the category of the Tartu School of total translation, with which both Lotman, and Torop
proposed that all cultures live in an ongoing translation process, so they can be intelligible. In addition, it is important
to highlight the nature of practice in speeches, since with this category they produce and reproduce actions,
reactions and relationships of all kinds; hence its centrality in inter and transcultural relations.

A Dream in Chinese Reality TV
Han, Cheng
Zhejiang University of Media and Communication
China
The Exchange Programme is a successful modification of the western Reality TV format. Produced by Hunan satellite
television, it takes as its backdrop the rural-urban divide in China. Categorized as “life experience Reality TV”, The
Exchange Programme juxtaposes urban and rural youth by arranging for them to experience the life of their
counterpart for seven days. The show aired from September 2006 to April 2008, and featured four independent
stories in each season. The show then came back for a fifth season in Jan 2012.
In giving the urban participant a leading role to play, the editor of The Exchange Programme positions it as“a story
about an urban youth’s transformation in a village, meanwhile it gives us a vivid impression about other [i.e. rural]
youths.” Interviewed by the programme makers, Cheng Manli, associate dean of News and Communication School,
Beijing University, believes, “It is a good model we could use for student education, including family education,
school education and other deeper levels.” Meanwhile, Wang Xiaohong, associate dean of Television and News
School, Communication University of China, comments, “I like this programme very much, from lots of different
perspectives, it represents media responsibility.”
This paper will analyze the portrayal of urban youth in The Exchange Programme and the way their identities are held
to be representative of modern city life in China. What actually are the “deeper levels” of education on display here?
What kind of“media responsibility” exactly is at work? Through an examination of how the cultural identities of
urban youth are constructed, I will argue that the“rediscovered” poverty of rural areas is presented as a form of
punishment and heart-rending pathos with which to physically and emotionally affect urban youth (and audiences),
and contribute to their transformation. In this way, I will show how The Exchange Programmeendeavours to
persuade urban youth to docilely accept the discipline and the education of school, serving as it does as a
representative of modernization. If the fantasy of urban youth is to be “modern, moral and disciplined”, then by
presenting this ‘myth’ as an assured future the programme can be seen as functioning to maintain the legitimacy of
Neoliberalism in present day China. Within the context of those contradictions and struggles between capitalism and
communism that are currently facing the Chinese government, the programme can also be held as allegorically
revealing the changing “hybridity” of the city, with the latter becoming a battle field, a “third space” of culture and
discourse, in which the country acts as the nation’s “original culture”.

Discourses at translational risk
Heller, phil. Lavinia
Johannes Gutenberg Universit
Germany
Discussions on power and sovereignty, especially in the context of Postcolonial Studies, have shed new light on
translation and stimulated a critical debate in Translation Studies about the role of translation in building hegemonic
discourses. In this context it is generally assumed that translations carry concepts, ideas, worldviews, values, etc., and
thus has a strong impact on the target systems' discourses. According to this assumption, the directions of
'translation traffic' are seen as an indicator for intercultural power asymmetries, as socio-cultural systems that export
a lot of texts through translations have a potentially better chance to claim the validity of their world view than
systems that are exposed to a strong translational influence from outside. The aim of this paper is not a sweeping
judgement of the perspective on the connection of translation processes and power relations. However, I will argue
that more often than not such perspectives implicate a quite simplistic idea of translation between discourse
traditions, as if translations pack in a discursive item from a steady socio-cultural system A and deliver it to a highly
permissive system B, where it unrestrainedly enfolds its influential power. In this study I want to promote a pragmatic
notion of translation and argue that translation does not actually impose specific worldviews, concepts and methods
from one discursive system to another, but rather puts them forward for discussion allowing thus – whether willingly
or unwillingly – the translated matter to be recontextualized and renegotiated in terms of another discourse tradition.
In this light it becomes apparent that the export of ideas and concepts is at least as 'risky' as its import, as the
multiplication of perspectives and voices always gives way to new claims of definition and validity. In this view,
translation should also be considered as a potential challenge of supremacy.

Discourse Practices of a “Cool” Black Girl: Breaking Through Boundaries of Ascribed Identity
Howard, Arianna M.
The Ohio State University
USA
Studies of the discourse practices surrounding (working class) Black girls point out that they are socially positioned or
constructed as “at-risk,” aggressive, loud, and underachieving and that such labeling perpetuates negative
consequences (Koonce, 2012; Richardson, 2009; Fordham, 1993). As such recent scholarship focuses upon activities,
supports or conditions which enable resiliency (Winters-Evans & Esposito, 2010; Rise Sister Rise, 2011; Winn, 2011).
The present study contributes to this line of work by examining the discourse practice of an “at-risk” adolescent Black
girl as she negotiates ascribed identities in a race-gender specific afterschool club dedicated to the development and
promotion of critical literacies of Black women and girls. As a critical discourse study, the focus of the present
examination is on the ways she makes language, communication and other acts of identity work to reconstruct,
deconstruct, maintain, or resist identities to build solidarity and status within the group. Gee (1996) calls this
recognition and enactment work.
Data is extrapolated from transcribed videotaped group discussions and
interview data. Using principles of critical discourse analysis (Fairclough, 2001; van Dijk, 2001; Gee, 2004) this
research examines the participant's negotiation of dominant and local discourses surrounding the ascribed identities
of being a Black girl. As she discussed lived experiences of violence, the participant co-constructed and contested
others' ascriptions of identity. This research shows how ascribed identities serve as boundaries (Sutherland, 2005)
and how discourse practice enables negotiation of those boundaries as the participant discussed everyday texts.

Translating Humor in U.S. Sitcoms: Grammar, Culture and Politics
Hsiao, Chi-hua
University of California at Los Angeles
USA
In this study, the translation of humor is explored in the context of an underground network of Internet-based
amateur translators in China. Informal volunteer subtitle groups emerged in the mid-1990s and began catering to the
younger generation’s thirst for U.S. popular culture and media. These translators are dedicated to unofficially
disseminating U.S. media programs to Mandarin speakers in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and elsewhere. Volunteer
groups add Chinese-language subtitles to programs, post the shows online for free downloads and provide a network
for online interactions. The
“undergroundness” gives rise to some unique properties of the translation work done by the subtitle community;
therefore, I explore how subtitlers and audiences use humor translation from U.S. sitcoms as a discourse of
self-expression and as an ideology. I illustrate the dynamic between subtitlers and audiences, particularly how they
construct subtitles as a contested site to articulate ideal types of Chinese humor that fit into the social-structural and
cultural conditions of contemporary China.
The evaluative discourse taking place on the Internet is ‘dialogical’ in that it allows discussants to enter the discussion
at any time, making the speech timeless but also ideology laden because they appreciate the translation text from
their own perspectives. The discourse is also “moral” because discussants usually position themselves as the
authorities who have authentic knowledge about translation, and they therefore “discipline” others on the right ways
of translating and reading humor. Moreover, the discourse is indexical, as discussants authenticate their cultural
identities by taking identical or distinctive stances. The online discussion forum provides a social space and invites
viewers to develop their theories of humor translation. This “zone of contact” (Pratt 1987) builds a community in
which audiences accept, refuse, or debate an array of alignments with, orientations towards, and adjustments of
humor translation. The evaluation discourse also reveals an implicit claim of translation sovereignty so that when a
translation is framed in the medium of U.S. sitcoms, subtitles are more likely to reflect social and political conditions
than to be truthful translations. Subtitlers and audiences justify their autonomy by claiming that by providing
appropriate humorous effects and promptly addressing a particular social-historical moment, the subtitles satisfy
audiences’ reasons for viewing the sitcoms. Such a right to translate and interpret humor is not merely about
translation; it is more an expression of sovereignty that itself constitutes a new kind of cultural production and
identity.

The Cultural Transformation of Chinese ‘Minority Films’
Hu, Puzhong
Capital Normal University
China
It seems that Chinese ‘minority films’ should be named ‘minority-themed films’, if we are to consider what the term
‘minority film’ means exactly in western countries. But before the ‘minority film’ meeting the western criterion has
been produced recently in Chinese cinema, the name ‘minority films’ has been used for several decades, during
which almost all films concerning the ethnic minority, especially those with the setting of minority areas, have been
called ‘minority films’ since the early 1950’s. It was not until 2004 that the minority films with modern academic
meaning seemed to appear. Some of these films were alleged to be made to protect the marginalized ethnic minority
culture, and more meaningfully, they were directed by the newly emerging young directors with non-government
background and increasingly clear self-identification in minority culture. So, at present, the word ‘minority film’ can
refer to the minority films which accord with the mainstream modern academics of film studies, and it could also
means those minority-themed films which serve the dominant culture and conform to its own tradition since the
early 1950’s. Both two kinds of film have increased greatly in quantity in last decade, and some of them have won
great social attention. This article will focus on some problems including the cultural logic behind the prosperity of
the minority films, the discourse trajectory of ‘films in mother tongue’, and the cultural operation of the newly
organized event ‘Beijing Minority Films Exhibition’, etc, and try to explore the discourse transformation for the
Chinese ethic minority films in China today.

This study entitled “Impeachment Trial: A Critical Discourse Analysis on Newspaper Editorials” aimed to determine
the discourse dimension and genre of the three local newspaper editorials in Davao City, Philippines, based on the
criteria provided by Teun Van Dijk and Norman Fairclough. This paper used qualitative – descriptive design in
analyzing the three local newspaper editorials from Mindanao Daily Mirror, Sun Star Davao and Mindanao Times that
discussed the controversial topic of the Impeachment Trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona. The researcher gathered 9
articles randomly selected from each of these newspapers within May 2012 issue. After the analysis of the corpora,
findings revealed that the access of settings happened in the Senate where Chief Justice Renato Corona was being
accused. The main participants of the three local newspapers are the Senator Judges which described as the
powerful groups in the text and encode the positive stance while the accused Chief Justice Renato Corona was the
powerless actor of the text which encodes the negative stance using the categorical assertions of lexico grammatical
features. Furthermore, the participant’s positions and role of the three local newspapers particularly the Senator
Judges have the power and authority to control the Impeachment Trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona. Moreover,
genre provided by Fairclough’s concluded that the opinion sections of the three local newspapers conveyed their
message through argumentative genre which is logical rather than emotional. It is then recommended that the
results of the = study could be introduced to the students understanding language that give reflection to the study of
discourse and power relation within the language. Editorial readers and student publication writers dealing with
newspaper writing could have a better knowledge and understanding on what writing genre will be used, whether it
is in narrative or argumentative form. Teachers of Mass Communication and Journalism subjects could introduce
critical discourse analysis in the writing perspective of their classes. Moreover, it would be helpful to the students in
analyzing a specific issue surrounding the society with the topic of power relation in CDA. Lastly, Critical discourse
analysis could be suggested in the curriculum of the academe wherein topics such as power relation within the
language can help better understand the issue especially in language and philosophical courses.

Identity and Culture Incorporation Constructed through Code-Switching between English
and Chinese in English-speaking Context
Jia, Yongfang
University of Toronto
China
Code-switching (CS) is a widespread phenomenon in bilingual speech communities and in conversations between
bilingual individuals. Many linguists consider code switching a very critical issue in bilingualism (Myers-Scotton, 1993;
Romaine, 1994), and codeswitching has a significant impact on bilingualism both at the societal level and individual
level (Romaine, 1994).
Much research on code-switching has been carried out by a great many investigators from a wide range of
disciplinary backgrounds with diverse approaches and perspectives. Li (2005) regards that there exists a large body of
literature on the structural constraints that are said to determine where and how code switching could occur.
Concepts such as ‘power’, ‘authority’, ‘prestige’ and ‘gender’ are all invoked in explaining why and how bilinguals
switch from one language to another. Li further points out that code-switching is essentially a conversational activity
and it takes place within specific conversational contexts. It is structured in accordance with the general
conversational organization. The starting point of any meaningful analysis of bilingual code-switching must therefore
be its location in the conversational context in which it actually occurs.
This paper discusses on the identity and culture incorporation constructed through code switching between English
and Chinese in Canada, the English speaking context. It takes on the observation of some bilinguals who adopt either
English or Chinese based on different situations in which they feel either the need for their identity being recognized
or their culture being acknowledged. The paper focuses on analyses of when, how and why code-switching occurs.
Chinese, as a Sino-Tibetan language, differs significantly from Indo-European languages, including both English and
French, in both its phonological and grammatical structures, e.g. in its use of lexical tones, its morphemic
mono-syllabilicity, and its lack of inflectional morphonology (Li, 1995).

The Visibilty of Turkey's Foreign Policy to The Public in Turkey: Discourse Analysis on Turkish
Foreign Policy in The Turkish Parliament
KELEŞ , Dilek
Ankara University
Turkey
Democracy has always been a topic of discussion in Turkey. Even though, there has been an effort to bring
democracy into force from establishment of the Republic to present, different goals were pursued from democracy in
the Single Party Period which is between years 1923-1946. With transition to a multi-party system in 1946 Turkey
took a step to the direction of democracy but many issues which have been discussed on have continued to exist as a
problem. During this period, as the main goal was ensuring the continuity of the regime, sometimes oppressive
regime was applied by the government to prevent opposing views. The opposing views were mainly the views of
media, universities and leftist movements. In this period when freedom of expression have been restricted, the
policies about agenda have been sometimes conducted confidentially. Hence, possible reaction of public about the
foreign policy has been prevented. Until the 1960s foreign policy was a topic which was unknown by the public.
1960s indicates a different period in Turkey’s history of democracy. These years will have been a different period in
which democracy gain functionality ever been before. The 1961 Constitution which is a product of this period and
brought some important advantages for the rights and liberties of a citizen was a progressive and useful one for the
leftist view. Some leftist parties were founded and improved due to the Constitutional arrangements for the
possibilities of organizing, thinking and expressing freely and to the Constitutional assurance given for the political
parties. Thus various segments of society especially some intellectuals took part in social and political life via
establising an organization and political parties. Turkish Labour Party which was the one of these parties, contributed
to the living of a different period in Turkey. TLP asserted different aspetcs about the country’s agenda and pioneered
the discussion of some issues in the public sphere. Foreign policy was the main issue of them. With TİP, “for the
first time a political party was opposing to the traditional line of foreign policy by its manifesto in Turkey, and was
recommending a new way for managing the foreign policy” (Fırat, 1997: 98 – 99)
The main aim of this study is to search how the Turkey's Foreign Policy have been visible to the public in Turkey and
how the TLP carry out a discourse in the Turkish Parliament. The study will base on the communication studies
perspective. The methodology of this research is discourse analyses which Teun Van Dijk will take as a reference
during the analysis and research categories will form on the basis of themes and linguistic features will highlight in
the speeches of the deputies.
The study composes of two main sections. In the first section the evolution of democracy in Turkey, foundation of
TLP and TLP’s contribution this process will review. In the second section analysis on the way in which the TLP raised
political opposition on the Turkey’s foreign policy is presented.

The paper discusses an important marriage event in Tswana society – the time when the bride is brought to the
in-laws. Two scenarios are given as a setting (i) a couple in which both are of the same age group and same culture
(ii) and one in which the bridegroom is older and of a different culture. In both scenarios, there is a “crossing over”
for the bride.
The paper then discusses two styles of discourse that take place during this event (i) the
external/verbal discourse that may include ceremonial “jargon” and dances (ii) the internal psychological and
emotional discourse that take place within the mind and heart of the bride. We call this “discourse with the
future.” Researchers have dealt with the first one extensively but few have examined the second type of discourse.
In the first one the paper analyses the metaphorical and symbolic language used in this discourse. In the second
the dreams (expectations), fears, doubt, “for better or for worse”(to borrow the Christian concept) are discussed
with an attempt to unravel the idea of future time and the meaning of life in a gendered world.

in non-interrogative ways, their meanings are more than meets the eye. Some people put such kind of
non-interrogative sentence pattern into rhetoric question category, it is not right. Its meaning is beyond the
boundary of rhetoric question pattern. Moreover, in both Chinese and English languages, there are similarities and
differencialities in non-interrogative use in interrogative sentence patterns. This paper deals with the
non-interrogative use in interrogative sentence patterns in a pragmatic analysis perspective, so as to give a deep
understanding of it.

Necessities of Developing Diverse Cultural Potentials in Academic Discourse
Kuhi, Davud
slamic Azad University
Iran
The absolute hegemony of international code of (academic) communication has resulted in the development and
spread of the discoursal voice of the culture form which historical English has emerged, and, as a consequence, any
violation from the generic conventions and thinking patterns born out of such a discourse has resulted in the
deprivation of non-native thinkers form active participation in production, publication and distribution of their
academic findings. The argument in this paper is based on the proposal that if some of the formulated, standardized
patterns of the production of academic knowledge are to be challenged and a new movement towards scientific,
academic pluralism is to begin, development of a wider atmosphere for a better treatment and acknowledgment of
cultural-historical voices of thinkers of different ethnic, cultural backgrounds seems inevitable. This approach
necessitates some different, non-conventional ways of defining the role of language in general and English in
particular in academic communication. Our conception of 'international' in this proposal is the development of a
virtual code which possesses the capacity of reflecting and encoding various national-cultural discourses within
international academic communication. This multi-voiced English would encourage alternative ways of thinking
about and understanding the realities of the world, discourage its users from non-critical reading of the superficial
patterns of texts, and develop the understanding of its users about the underlying ideologies of discourses shaping
and constructing the realities of our world.
Key words: Academic English, Discourse, Scientific Pluralism, Virtual Language, Multi- voiced English

Hospitality Discourse in Diaspora Literature
Lee, Melissa
Chinese University of Hong Kong
Hongkong, China
This Paper investigates the discourse of hospitality, translation and cultural hybridity found in in Asian diasporic
literature and visual culture. My purpose is to reveal how these themes both define territorial boundaries as well as
create active modes of communication that express complex immigrant subject positions. Situations of hospitality in
Diasporic novels are given new meaning as a focus of transcultural relationships, capable of fostering unlikely
community bonds for immigrants in new countries that create active modes of communication. Definitions such as
"guest," "captive," "host," and the root of the word "hostipot" will also be discussed in relation to Diasporic
scholarship. This paper looks at the Derridean nature of hopsitality and how the root of the word (both hospitable
and hostile) plays a strong role in immigrant and nationalistic tensions between the host country and the immigrant
guest narrative.

Exploring medical interaction at a micro level: Turn organization in doctor-patient
conversations
Li, Fang (李芳)
Peking University
China
Institutional talk has attracted great attention in the field of language and discourse study. Medical interaction, a
typical form of institutional talk, has been studied from many different perspectives. In this paper, the author focuses
on the turn taking and turn organization system of doctor-patient conversations at a micro level. Conversations
between a doctor and her patient in a public hospital in Beijing were audio-recorded, which were then transcribed
for data analysis. Based on Harvey Sack's turn taking rules, the paper analyzed the turn structures, turn types and
turn transition of the doctor-patient conversation. The turn structures and types of each phase of the conversation
are firstly analyzed, followed with a synthesized discussion on the turn organization of the conversation as a whole.
Similarities and differences between the doctor's and patient's turns are discussed, out of which several findings on
the feature of doctor's and patient's participation in the medical interaction are generated. The paper has revealed
the asymmetrical power existed between doctors and patients through exploring the turn taking system and its
relevant features of the doctor-patient conversation in specific and medical verbal interaction in general.

The underlying problems for the west to understand China

There exists a gap between the China described in the western media and the true China, there is still a“curtain”held
between the Western people and China. The western people’s cognition of China was strongly influenced by the
media or education they received in their backdrop，they do not really understand China’s reality. Due to the factors
of different political systems and values between China and the West, and the Western people’s Cold War prejudice
and their failure to adapt to China’s rapid development, more importantly, lack of understandins of China.This paper
examines the underlying problems for the western people to understand China from a new perspective, namely,
implicit culture, macro-culture, cultural stereotypes and biases. The aim is to enhance understanding and reduce
misunderstandings, to promote China’s condition in the international mass media to be equivalent to its global

Ideologies of language and learning Chinese in the Netherlands
Li, Jinling
Tilburg Univeristy
The Netherlands
Based on ethnographic observation and interview in and around a Chinese complementary school in the
Netherlands,this paper aims to disentangle the complexities of being, knowing and learning Chinese in the
Netherlands, with respect to the internal diversity within Chineseness, its relation to local Dutchness and its
functioning within, or upscaling into, larger categories of Asianness. This paper shows that Chinese-Dutch youth
embody complex polycentric communicative and identity repertoires that cannot in any meaningful way be
understood as either Chinese or Dutch, but as Chinese and Dutch, Western and Asian as well as smaller scale levels
(e.g. Eindhoven or Wenzhounese) at the same time. Presented with the challenges and opportunities of globalisation,
Chinese for Chinese-Dutch youth, is something in between a language of heritage, a language of leisure (e.g.,
holidays) and a language of career perspectives.
The overall picture of multilingual identity that emerges is one of intense polycentricity: Chinese youth in the
Netherlands organize their identity work in relation to a number of simultaneously occurring but context-specific
‘centers’ of language and identity – Dutch, PRC, regional, age, gender, etc. – which provoke differing, sometimes
conflicting orientations towards complexes of legitimacy and authenticity with respect to Chinese-Dutch identity.

English, media and imagined community: A study of English’s influence on the daily lives of
Chinese people
Li, Songqing
Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University
China
The popularity of English in China is amazing. Extensive studies have been conducted to explore English teaching
and learning in China. By contrast, observed in the linguistics literature of English in China only a few studies are
concerned with the indigenous variety of Chinese English, discussing distinctive features at the levels of phonology,
lexis, grammar, and discourse. Even less is the attempt to study the increasingly influence of English on the daily lives
of Chinese people. The goal of this study is to present a sociolinguistic profile of the role English plays in the daily
lives of Chinese people. To this end, it examines English in Chinese advertising by documenting how English is
utilised to construct an “imagined community” (Anderson 1983), to which Chinese people have a personal sense of
attachment or whereby collective identity of Chinese people is ascribed. Data collected for this study were confined to
print commercials appearing in magazines and newspapers of mainland China over 2007, just one year before the
Beijing Olympics. Despite the language rule restricting the use of English words in media predominant in Chinese
(BBC, 21 December, 2010), ads aired and printed in China increasingly contain English words, resulting in greater
bilingual creativity. As a major force in the ongoing societal reproduction, naturalization and reinforcement,
advertising inherently reflects and constitutes the current trends, and value and belief systems of a society. And the
social circulation of advertising discourse itself provides a precondition necessary for the construction of community
in large-scale societies (Anderson 1983; Habermas 1989).
By analysing lexical and discourse features of English used in Chinese advertising, I argue that there are four groups
of linguistic resources of English contributing to the creation of an imagined community for Chinese people:
geographic or territorial units in the foreign world, emotion discourse of Anglo-America, discourses of success, and
transnational feminism and masculinism. Despite the fact that Chinese advertisers draw upon resources from various
discourses, they don't adopt them in their entirety but rework and combine them to construct an imagined Chinese
people community with its own distinctive style. This underscores the agency of language users, which is to be
discussed and made explicit in the perspective of socio-cultural ideologies.

A Comparative Study of Marriage, Sexuality, and Maternity in Dystopias The Handmaid’s
Tale and Raise the Red Lantern
Liang, Ying (Lillian)
Beijing Foreign Studies University
China
Dystopia is an imaginary place or condition in which everything is as bad as possible. Feminist dystopias emphasize
the bleak notions of use and abuse of women. This study compares Canadian author Margaret Atwood’s The
Handmaid’s Tale (1986) and Chinese author Su Tong’s Raise the Red Lantern (1996), two women’s dystopias that
share very similar story lines and themes. Both delineate in chilling details the virtual enslavement of women. The
paper focuses on marriage, sexuality, and reproduction motifs in the two works. Raise the Red Lantern depicts the
inescapability of the old family and marriage system. The grim Handmaid focuses on maternity, which is both wish
(Handmaids are discarded after three unsuccessful attempts at pregnancy) and fear (the baby, unless deformed,
becomes the property of the Handmaid’s Commander and his wife). The study observes that in women’s dystopias
marriage removes women from utopia and love, and through marriage the heroines’ identity, freedom, and voice are
lost. Marriage is a major source of destruction or at least a great watershed of women’s lives. Dystopias also ritualize
sexual intercourse and suppress women’s sexuality. Both works express female fears of sexual violence or
imprisonment. As for maternity, dystopias make maternity a fear and disentangle the biological mother from the
function of mothering. Both Handmaid and Raise the Red Lantern describe a woman’s forced entry into a dystopian
space --- to reproduce. Both worlds are obsessed with female body, its reproductive system, and women’s reduction to
mere functions to reproduce. When postmodern feminists argue for the hope that women are the sole arbiters of their
reproductive functions, Atwood and Su put the subject into a fantasy land and respond: “not yet”.
Key words: dystopia; sexuality; reproduction.

Intimacy Between Husband &Wife: Cultural Characteristics and Value Connotation
Liu, Helin（刘和林）& Tan, Ying(谭颖)
Changsha University
China
Relationship between husband & wife is regarded to be the most intimate relationship between two individuals.
Research and statistics show that a positive intimate relationship between husband & wife and the increase of
female status favor a harmonious marriage and family and benefit the social harmony and stability as well. The
construction of the intimate relationship is deeply influenced by culture. Thus, the interpersonal relationship in the
family in developing countries, especially the intimacy between the couple is different from that in the developed
countries (such as in Europe, North America and Japan) to the vast number of developing countries (such as Asia,
Africa and Latin America). China, in a leading position among the developing countries (Shi Xu:2010), should play a
positive role in the harmonious construction of marriage and family for the purpose of maintaining the world peace
and promoting common progress. Based on this, the paper attempts to make the comparative analysis from some
new perspectives, such as “distance in sleeping, intimate touching, enjoying leisure time together, decision-making
and housework sharing between husband and wife”, so as to point out the importance of the female status in the
process of cultural construction and its influence on the intimacy.

Reconsidering interpreting training models in light of divergent contexts
Liu, Jie
Utrecht University
The Netherlands
For the past 60 years, the ‘Paris School’ based on the work of the École Supériere d’Interprètes et de Traducteurs
(ESIT), endorsed by the International Association of Conference Interpreters (AIIC) has been the dominant model for
the training of interpreters in the West. However, the rapid and intense changes in the structure of global economic
relations may require a reconsideration of some of the ‘one-size-fits-all’ interpreting frameworks currently adhered
to. Indeed, rather than being universally applicable, it may be that interpreting models influenced by the likes of the
Paris School require a reconsideration on more nuanced reappraisal of context.
This reappraisal is performed in this paper by honing in on contextual conditions in China – one of the biggest
developing economies in the world. A major argument put forward in this paper is that interpreting models should
not be shaped by universal laws, but actually should be more receptive to very context-specific conditions, thus
retaining an element of flexibility. Good interpreting training models should be shaped by both the contextual
demand for skills (which are informed by economic organisation and the opportunities offered in such an economy),
and the contextual supply of skills available at the local level. These points are put forward in this paper through an
explicit focus on conditions in China, where the diversified interpreting market (quite different from that in Europe),
different institutional foundations for interpreting, and generally lower levels of proficiency in students’ ‘B’ languages
really tests the wider feasibility of the Paris-School influenced training models.

Pleasure of Korean drama: Constructing ‘Asian-ness’ between the Ideology and Subversion

This paper is based on a recent audience investigation in which the idea of 'Asian-ness' forms the basis for an
evaluation of Korean dramas. Situating the TV dramas as a product of modernity — of modernity’s experiential
qualities, its ideological fluctuations, and its cultural anxieties -
I argue that 'Asian-ness' here responds to the
construction of a 'nostalgic structure of feeling'. It is through this structure of feeling that an alternative modernity
that is significantly distinct from that of the capitalist west is being culturally reinvented and reimagined by audiences
in China via these Korean dramas.

Multicultural Discourse Analysis of Business English Negotiation
Liu, Xiulian

The globlization promotes the corporation in international trade. And business negotiation plays the key role in the
success of the bilateral or multilateral trade. Although business people come from different countries or nations in
which their cultures may be quite different from each other, all of them concord on the purpose of the trade, namely,
profiting from the trade. They negotiate in a variety of situation from daily transactions to corporate mergers.They
negotiate buying and selling prices, payment terms as well as packing and shipping. The effective negotiation can
speed up the trade between the two sides. Of course, business negotiation involves a lot of professional and
communicative skills. Business people have to consider not only the professional etiquette, but also the
interpersonal principles in order to create win-win situation. However, it shows a special way in the use of language.
And the discourse used in the negotiation is quite characteristic. This research explores how people use language to
achieve what they expect from the perspective of discourse ,such as discourse style, discourse mode, discourse
quantity and discourse strategy. Especially, it attempts to expound how people from different cultures use English to
develop their negotiation style and strategy for win-win one, which is very helpful in the teaching of Business English
and the cultivation of business negotiation talents.

Gender Sensitivity: A Study of Political Discourse with Reference to the Delhi Gang Rape Case
Lokhandwala, Munira
University of Pune
India
The Delhi Gang Rape case of 16 December 2012 got unprecedented publicity in both the print and electronic media.
The victim, a 23 year old young physiotherapy student remained in a critical condition before she succumbed to the
brutal injuries inflicted on her. The publicity that the episode generated put pressure on both the police as well as the
politicians who had to answer persistent journalists as well as respond to the public outrage that took the form of
demonstrations and protests all over the country.
The knee jerk responses of many public figures reflected the extreme insensitivity and blatant anti- feminist stance.
These responses drew a lot of criticism. For example, the Congress chief of Andhra Pradesh, Botsa Satyanarayana’s
responseto the incident (gang rape), was, "Why was she roaming outside late in the night"? He did not seem to be
particularly concerned about the condition of the victim, who died a few days later, or how extremely unsafe the
national capital was for women. Satyanarayana to justify his insensitive statement added, "Do we roam in streets at
midnight as we got Independence at midnight? It would have been better if the girl did not travel by a private bus at
that time". On the other hand the chief minister, Sheila Dixit felt that she could not gather the courage to visit the girl
in hospital and called Delhi the ‘Rape Capital’. She was among the few voices that showed sensitivity towards the
victim.
This paper will attempt to pragmatically analyse some select statements made by politicians and public figures which
reflect the masculine assumptions and gender stereotyping. This is very evident at the metadiscursive level in the
terms of patterns of discourse representation. The attempt by the political statements issued by some leaders
attempted to be sympathetic towards the rape victim but inadvertently end up being typically chauvinist.

Decoding discourse on the Self and the Other in the Chinese official media narratives about
diplomatic standoffs with the foreign Other
Lut, Lams
Catholic University of Leuven
Belgium
At times of destabilizing events in a community’s history when the national Self is perceived to be threatened by
external as well as internal forces, attempts are being made at reinforcing sensations of shared values and
cultural/national identities. This seems endemic of any society where discourse plays a facilitating role as binding
force of common cultural values, histories and political interests. Examples of such critical moments for China are not
only internal schisms interrogating the sense of the unified Self, but especially conflicts with a foreign outsider, such
as the comparable incidents of the 2001 diplomatic standoff with the US following the spy plane collision near
Hainan Island and the 2010 conflict with Japan concerning the Chinese fishing boat collision with the Japanese
coastal guards in the disputed waters of the Tiaoyutai Islets. Since these events are quite comparable in nature, as
they involve issues of sovereignty and responsibility for the incidents, this paper sets out to trace discursive patterns
concerning positioning the Self and the Other in Chinese media narratives during both conflicts.
The paper attempts to map similarities between findings from two separate studies about media stories on these
international incidents and to indicate continuity and consistency in Chinese official discourse over the last decade
when it concerns sensitive matters, such as sovereignty. Using insights from Social Representations Theory, Language
Pragmatics and Critical Discourse Theory, these studies analyzed linguistic tools of alienation and empowerment in
the Chinese official press narratives. The corpus for the 2001 collision comprised the Chinese-language Renmin Ribao,
its English equivalent The People’s Daily and the English-language China Daily. For the 2010 case study, ideological
positioning was traced in the articles from the Renmin Ribao, the People’s Daily, as well as the South China Morning
Post. The latter study also examined the Japanese English-language media for reasons of analytical comparison.
Results suggest that positional superiority, as detected by Edward Said in Western notions about the Oriental Other,
is inspired by national interests rather than mere culturalist ethnocentrism.

全球。中国在该领域已经并正在积极展开和世界各国的对话和交流。中国人权话语发展迅速，它创造和批判
性地回应了以美国为中心的西方人权话语霸权秩序，丰富了世界的人权话语内容。翻译作为人权话语交际的
重要途径，是中国人权话语走向世界的桥梁。翻译是人权交流强有力的媒介，完全可以展开新的文化和政治
空间，撼动种族霸权身份和权威。来自异域的文化和意识形态影响足以导致社会和政治的变更，目的语系统
又很难避免文化和意识形态的混乱和骚动。譬如西方他者，会被用来作为普遍特征强加于某一本土文化，后
者则被迫适应陌生的文化和陌生的思维方式。翻译中强制文化输入被认为是一种入侵，许多翻译的争论往往
围绕异质他者的构建力和破坏力来进行的。然而翻译的核心问题之一是对异质他者的文化焦虑和矛盾心理，
在构成翻译基础的文化政治中，译者他者性在本质上被具体化。尽管说翻译意识形态无处不在有些言过其实，
但它显示出一种主要跟语言和艺术息息相关的倾向，并且对翻译的需要同目的语言系统的政治或文化关注密
不可分。事实是，在译者他者中理应找到现代性、合理性、普遍性等所有这些可取的成分。因此，同中寻异、
异中觅同，就变得颇有意义了。另外人们本能的将自我和他者理解为对立的两级，对他者的不信任是普遍的
和自然的。但是在人权交际中，自我和他者间断然划分是陈腐和不切实际的，对自我的去中心化和废除有助
于我们意识到多样性的存在，还可以积极展开自我和他者间的对话和互动。无疑，翻译领域中自我和他者对
话模式意义重大，应当深入研究。在评论对话伦理特性时，尼隆（Nealon）鲜明地指出：“如果社会空间被理
解为话语间的丰富对话，而非为了取得认可和统治的争斗，那么他者就不一定是具有权威性的和敌对的力量
了。”因此，在人权话语交际中，译者的一项绝对紧迫的任务就是为他者留出或是创造空间，把他者的视角显

Global academic discourse
Maesse,Jens
University of Warwick
UK
Even if the academic world has already had a global scope the academic discourse is usually shaped by academic
institiutions which are, in turn, based on the nation state: it is embedded in social networks, a national language, a
state bureaucracy, local publishers and a regional job market. Thus, as long as academic communication and
classification practices are taking place in such an institutional enviroment, the discursive logic of the academic world
follows a particular institutional logic. Within the last decades several disciplins have undergone a process of
transnationalisation. This development is a threefold process of transformation and social change: 1) a process of
denationalisation is accompanied by a process of 2) the construction of global institutional order. Both developments
are pushed foreward and followed by 3) a change of the logic of academic discourse. Taking the economics discilplin
as an exapmle of adacemic globalization I will show how a global discursive order developed in the light of
denationalization and the global constitution of academic and non-academic institutions. Thereby I want to
demonstrate the complex relationship between discursive orders, post-national institutional settings and the social
networks of a global academic community.

Recognition, emotion and claim justification: A case study of Brazilian deaf people’s
storytelling about linguist rights on the internet
Maia, Rousiley C. M. & Garcêz, Regiane L. O.
UFMG
Brazil
Discourses on identity are specially based on emotion that affects individual’s cognition and reasoning capacities that
helps to politicize group identity and mobilization as well as engagement in political discussions. Our study focuses
on deaf persons, subjects who have been victims of stigmatization, who face language barriers and who struggle for
recognition of deaf culture.
This study, based on Axel Honneth’s theory of recognition, aims to explore how disrespected subjects articulate hurt
feelings through an “intersubjective framework of interpretation” and negotiate disagreement that often emerges
among members of groups when constructing “a shared semantics”. We advocate that Honneth’s understanding of
the role of emotion is compatible with discursive justification in the Habermasian fashion; and both theoretical
frameworks can be applied in conjunction in studies focusing on discourses and identity.
To develop this argument, we analyze storytelling about linguistic rights gathered in the website of the main Brazilian
organization for deaf persons (FENEIS) and the Orkut, an online social network. We examine the tensions underlying
the construction of “a shared semantics” from the perspective of both deaf social movement and individual
members of that collectivity. While storytelling on the website evinces a unified and coherent discourse about
injuries and possible solutions based on sign language, on Orkut, it raises moral disagreement and harsh concurrent
discourses among oralized deaf persons and those using sign language about linguistic rights. We conclude that
“feelings of injustice” and controversial claims for recognition require justification in different spheres.

男性气概笼罩下的多重身份---整形科医生叙事话语中的身份构建
Mao, Yanfeng (毛艳枫)

The doctor-patient relationship has been a hot topic for social concern and studies. However, there is hardly any
focus on doctors’ identity. By using discoursive analysis, the paper analyzes and interprets a plastic surgeon’s
narrative discourse from an interview in order to find how the interviewee constructs his identity and understand its
social meaning. It is discovered that the interviewee adopts various discursive strategies to construct four integral
social identities: patients’ “savior”, colleagues’ “leader” and “competitor”, friends’ “mutual helper” , and family’s
“protector”, which all deliver strong masculinity.

The Interactional Construction of Ideological Dilemmas in Political Arguments
Mayes, Patricia
University of Wisconsin
USA
Many have suggested that public discourse in America has become increasingly polarized in recent years, and indeed
turning on a television or googling a political issue seems to justify this assertion. Still, some would argue that this
very division is the essence of human reasoning and a resource or starting point for creating new arguments.
Indeed, this binary may be a point of departure for displays of human epistemology and perhaps even a locus of
change. Yet what remains unclear is whether such polarization is simply a construct of the media, or whether
ordinary people are also involved in creating and maintaining the purported polarization, and if they are, how does
this occur in face-to-face interaction.
I investigate this question, using Michael Billig’s, notion of ideological
dilemmas, longstanding, naturalized ideological constructs, understood in opposing terms (e.g., freedom versus
control or justice versus mercy) that function as resources for debating, thinking, and even interacting on a casual
basis. These ideological dilemmas can be understood as, on the one hand, preexisting (or structured), and on the
other hand, emergent. While the relationship between structure and emergence has long been debated, there
seems to be a growing interest across disciplines in examining how culturally bound constructs such as ideology and
epistemology emerge and reemerge in ways that connect the micro and the macro. Here I examine the practices of
ordinary citizens engaged in political arguments in order to examine how such longstanding ideological dilemmas
emerge and reemerge in this micro-level interaction. My goal is to analyze current claims of polarization in light of
the interactional construction of these longstanding, common sense oppositions in a way that will lead to a more
nuanced understanding of conflict and challenge the binary construct of two opposing but “equal” sides.

The Arab “Spring” and “Street”: Political Metaphors in Global News Media
McCarthy, Wil
Zayed University
United Arab Emirates
Metaphor is an integral part of communication and an indication of how people think and act. The news media often
uses metaphor to relate or simplify a phenomenon, which can be indicative of underlying assumptions and prejudice.
The public mind can be shaped and influenced by these metaphors causing prejudgment and stereotyping,
particularly of other cultures.
This paper focuses on the origins and usage of two political metaphors commonly used in global media: “Arab Street”
and “Arab Spring.” Through a quantitative analysis of the use of the terms in the New York Times, BBC News and
other English language media, only Arabs are singled out by ethnicity to refer to their public’s viewpoint. In Arabic
language media, the word “street” is also a metaphor for public opinion but is applied to any country or ethnicity.
In a qualitative analysis, an examination of “Arab Spring” illustrates that the term is chronologically inaccurate,
coined by Western media, and laden with historical meaning and expectations. While language can be interpreted
connotatively or denotatively, the scrutiny of these two popular metaphors used for Arabs speaks to a hidden bias in
English-language news media.

'Politics is a do or die affair': Political discourse in Nigerian Editorial Cartoons
Medubi, Oyinkan Christiana
University of Ilorin
Nigeria
Nigeria, a multilingual and multicultural nation of over one hundred and sixty million people, practices a democracy
that tries to reflect its unique experiences which include both pre- and post-colonialism. As a result of these
experiences, the nation's political culture is often portrayed through various media segments such as news reports,
commentaries and political or editorial cartoons as being crisis-ridden, unstable and violence-prone. Among the
media segments, however, political or editorial cartoons appear to provide a more readily available site where
interactions constitute national discourses that can be unpacked as cultural artefacts. This study is designed to
highlight the strategies employed in political cartoons by cartoonists to portray this culture and represent the
national discourses which inspire or reflect the varied crises. The purpose is to find out how these discourses
constitute the Nigerian national political life. In order to do this, the study employs discourse elements on thirty
sample political cartoons randomly chosen between January and December of 2011 and 2012 from two Nigerian
newspapers, The Punch and The Nation. From the analysis, the study is able to find that the political arena is
perceived as a theatre of war, not where ideas contend but where personal wills collide, making political discourses
to be confrontational, provocative and desperate. The study concludes that, through the use of discourse strategies,
political cartoons adequately capture the political culture of Nigeria to show a silently imploding country whose
sovereignty is under siege from its own political class.

“Tlatelolco City”, habitat and interdiscursivity of three cultures
Márez Tapia, Miguel Angel

“Tlatelolco City”housing complex that is located in Mexico City’s downtown built in the sixties of the twentieth
century. Tlatelolco is emblematic of this country’s history, here stood the twin city of Tenochtitlan of the Mexica’s
empire, the last bastion of resistance in the Spanish conquest and was very relevant to Christian evangelization
through the College of the Holy Cross in the sixteenth century to host the administrative powers of the Indian
Republic in Spanish colonial times.
Three cultures symbolized by a square, the Mexican government made use of this space for the construction of a
habitat that represented an ambitious political project for the sake of legitimacy, making it a space power and
glimpse the symbol of modernity for the entire nation. Only four years after it opened, the student movement of
1968 would appropriate the original speech that had been impregnated by the government, transforming the place
into a discourse of resistance and protest movements.
Fifty years after its inauguration, this paper aims at analysis of interdiscursivity that is present from a synchronic

A Critical Analysis of EFL the Teacher’s Classroom Words from the Perspective of
Systematic Functional Linguistics
Fan, Molan
Yuncheng University
China
Systemic functional linguistics (SFL), first founded by Halliday in 1920s, covers the three major perspectives:
discourse itself and cognitive and socio-cultural ones which are widely adopted in discourse analysis (DA). Halliday
re-interpreted the function of lexical grammar and classified it into three categories—ideational, interpersonal and
textual function. This paper takes college English teacher’s classroom words as discourse resource, and makes a
critical analysis from the socio-cultural perspective of SFL. The empirical study on this matter shows that college
English teacher uses 1) the first-person singular pronoun “I” to express himself, 2) modal verb “will” or “should” that
indicates the speaker’s (the teacher’s) attitude and judgment, 3) imperative sentences to give his demand or
requirement; 4) rhetorical questions when questioning students’ answer or understanding, and 5) anaphora. The
conclusions drawn from the analysis from the systems of mood, modality are as follows: the choice of pronoun, form
of lexical grammar and pattern stresses the teacher’s personal viewpoint and its importance, indicates his identity of
teacher and representative of power or authority of knowledge who is more likely to control the classroom and
dominate teaching, and, to a certain degree, exerts a negative influence on students’ motivation, enthusiasm,
making them worried and anxious and lack in confidence, and likely makes students form a habit of accepting others’
(teacher’s) attitude and viewpoint passively. This paper ends with some constructive suggestions on how to
effectively choose and use classroom words to college English teacher: to use plural pronoun “we” or passive voice
instead of “I” to weaken the teacher’s subjective conscience, to choose interrogative sentences, “Can you…?” or
“Would you…?” instead of imperative sentences to convey the teacher’s negotiable attitude towards students, and to
make positive evaluations even to use formulations to encourage students to express their own ideas and thoughts.

The intersection between Interculturalism and
Meeting Room 1
interdiscursivity, in the Indigenous
Peoples of Mexico
Montoya, Amalia
National School of Anthropology and History
Mexico
This presentation pretends to be a contribution from social anthropology about the intersection between
interdiscursivity and interculturality, framed in the study of the “Originary towns and boroughs” (pueblos y barrios
originarios) of Mexico. The interdiscursivity is shown by several specialists (Foucault, Bajtin, Kristeva, Haidar) as “the
creation of texts/ discourses from former ones”. This multiple view is a social, historical and cultural construction of
different societies, from where it detaches the urgent need of a conversation or dialogue among humanity or, if it’s
worth saying, among the different towns and cultures. Subject –nature – society – culture are concatenated and
interrelated concepts. That is why the intercultural phenomena earns discursive sense not only on what is shown by
the multiculturality theorics (Kymlicka, Taylor, etc.) whom reduce the interaction and diatopic dialogue (Panikkar,
Vachon, Nicolai) among cultures to the mere cultural coexistence; in other words, what Ordónez (in press)
denominates “theorethical aritmethic”. The interculturality in the other side, represents a complex “cultural algebra”
where the towns and cultures dialogue and establish cultural and identity interconnections. The ethnicity as an
alterity field presents itself as a web of complex social relations, social imaginaries and social organization of sense,
historically and in concordance
with social structures. Following Haidar’s model of discourse analysis and culture
semiotic, we can go beyond the interdiscursivity’s functionality and reveals its materialities (pragmatic, cultural,
cognoscitive, unconscious and aesthetics).

Proposal of Individual Communication Multicultural discourses in Brazilian portraits:
reframing concepts
Mor, Walkyria Monte
University of Sao Paulo
Brazil
Two portraits of multicultural discourses have called the attention of researchers mainly in the areas of education,
languages and social sciences in Brazil. The first refers to the broadening of international relations between Brazil and
other countries; it is identified as an ethnic cultural issue, of political, economic, social and educational implications,
though. It involves the exchange of students, academics and specialized workers and concerns about what is
convergence and divergence in the participation requirements within different cultures and societies. The second
picture refers to access enhancement of disadvantaged students to public universities through quota-based policies;
this one is perceived as a social cultural issue. The participants are usually black students as well as public state
school students who have been surveyed as the ones who have less condition to pass entrance exams to universities
due to the education quality they are offered.
This presentation discusses the analysis of the two portraits focusing on conceptual frames that challenge the
Brazilian society in its relationships, in face of new scenarios presently seen in the country. The selected concepts for
this paper, built according to the concepts of literacies, language and culture, are: 1) heterogeneity and difference
(PENNYCOOK 2007, 2010; GEE 2011, KRESS 2005, 2010; HORNBERGER AND MCKAY; BIESTA 2009; HALL 1992)
considering the cultural changes in societies and the influences of the ‘multi’-built perspectives; 2) active citizenship
(KALANTZIS, COPE 2008, 2012; LANKSHEAR, KNOBEL 2011; BIESTA 2010; FREIRE 1967, 1987, 2001), as an expanding
possibility to the well-known concept of citizenship that reassures rights and responsibilities and as a response to the
new sorts of relationships of the current times.

所谓“用微博写方言”是一种风行一时的 “微博体”。 这类微博通过方言语汇勾连起人们对某个地域的认同

“以方言写微博”无固定格式，有时纯用方言，有时是普通话与方言词汇混用；在使用方言词汇时，多以音

“用微博写方言”作为一种流行的微博体，其格式比较固定，通常由几个相同结构的句子聚合成一段话，基
本句式是“在……（地名）

微博中的“保护方言”行为意味着方言区的觉醒。方言微博和微博体，也说明了一种“方言自觉”。

Keeping the floor – a comparison between French and Swedish communicative strategies in
the European parliamentary debate
Norén, Coco & Josserand, Jérôme & Melander, Björn & Nyroos, Lina
Uppsala University
Sweden
In the European Parliament, the members (MEPs) have to meet over boundaries of language and culture. National
rhetorical traditions are reflected in linguistic forms as well as interactional patterns.
The parliamentary debate is a practice strictly governed by rules, in particular regarding speech order and speech
time. Our previous research has shown that French MEP’s do not exceed speech time more often than Swedish, on
the contrary to what one could expect from cultural stereotypes. However, if considering nationality and gender, it
shows that Swedish men exceed time more often, but shortly, while French women exceed rarely, but when they do,
longer (Melander, Josserand, Norén & Nyroos, forthc.).
Taking those results as a point of departure, the aim of this presentation is two show how MEPs use different
strategies to keep the floor, once their formal speech time is ended. Those strategies fall into several categories: the
use of textstructural expressions first- second-third, expressions projecting conclusion I’m concluding, finally, terms
of address Mr President, gesture and gaze, and finally pitch. We will argue that French and Swedish MEPs differ in
their preference of strategies, although the individual variation is strong.
The data consist of two sets: interviews with MEP:s and the corpus C-ParlEur, consisting of all French and Swedish
speeches during the debates in the European Parliament 2006–2008.
The analysis will draw from French textlinguistics (see Adam 2008, 2011) and studies on gesture (Kendon 2004) and
body language.
The study is carried out within the frame of a larger project ComParE – comparing parliamentary discourse in Europe,
funded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Letters and Uppsala University, aiming to investigate rhetorical and
interactional patterns in the European Parliament.

Myth and Representation of China in the Nigerian Media

Media representations of China as the next leader of the global economy taking over from the United States of
America are rife in the West and increasingly in the developing world. The Human Development Index and the World
Bank Report provide statistics that seem to legitimate these representations. The growing investment and therefore
impact of China in the economies of countries such as the Sudan, Nigeria and Ghana among others in Africa provides
a frame for exploring the discursive representation in the media. The Confucius Institutes increasingly spreading
around the African continent and the emergence of Mandarin in the educational curriculum are cultural
concomitants of Chinese emergence and presence which complement Chinese involvement in regional economic
development. This presentation will explore Roland Barthes' theory of myth and how it may help our understanding
of current representations of China in the Nigerian media.

Discourse on ‘Intercultural’ Communication on YouTube: Is Inter- too much?
Machart, Regis &
Lim, Sep Neo
Universiti Putra Malaysia
Malaysia
Since the 1980s, the French researcher Martine Abdallah-Pretceille (1996, 1998, and 1999) has been pledging for an
original approach to intercultural studies. She is in favour of a “humanism of the diverse” (2003, 2012) respectful of
the individual who should not be entrapped in a particular culture and whose identity is situated and intersubjective.
The notion of intercultural relies on the concept of ‘culture’ which has been largely criticised in academic circles and
most researchers now refute the existence of ‘a culture’ (Dervin 2012). Yet, ‘intercultural communication’ recently
spread widely over the academic world as well as in the private sector ‘because of’ globalisation. Researchers and
consultants intensively make use of the Internet to defend their conception of or exemplify what interculturality
means, and the term appears to be polysemic if one compares the available documents. Bauman (2004) opposes a
solid (static) to a fluid (intersubjective) approach to the concept of identity, to which Dervin (2012) adds the Janusian
approach, whereby people claim not to be culturalist (seen as reductionist) but yet refer to culturalism or
essentialism in their discourse. In this contribution, we will analyse the discourse on ‘interculturality’ in fifteen videos
found on YouTube promoting intercultural communication/intercultural training. The documents in French, English
and German present scholars, consultants, scholars-cum-consultants and scholars-cum-authors developing or
exemplifying their approach to interculturality. The content will be analysed using the theory of
énonciation(Kerbrat-Orecchioni 1980) and we will show how the term most of the time is used in a very culturalist
sense which is very different from Abdallah-Pretceille’s “humanism of the diverse”.

Translation and marketing policies: How Chinese food products are selling in Barcelona
Molina, Lucia & Santamaria, Laura & Wu, Sian-Huang
Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
Spain
In this presentation we will show how success of food products trying to reach new foreign markets depends on how
these items are presented in the target culture. There are different factors to be taken into account and translation is
without any doubt among the most important ones. As it was proved in Fox (1995) "competent translation ensures
the successful entry of a company's goods into a foreign market; incompetent translation spells disaster".
While Fox (1995) studied how British food had problems to break into the food market in Barcelona due to
translation, we will focus on the translation strategies followed by Chinese food products in different shops in
Barcelona. Our aim is to describe the translation method used (explicative translation, literal translation, iconic
translation, etc.) and to explain its intention. We depart from the hypothesis that the translation methods applied
are based on two fundamental axes: one is the linguistic policy of the target country (Catalonia in this case) and the
other is the target customer.
The first one, linguistic policy, is a fixed element and thus common in principle to all translations. The second one,
nevertheless, is multiple and dynamic; the two poles apart are the Catalan (or Spanish) clients, who are not familiar
with the Chinese culture, and the Chinese clients who live in Barcelona and buy commodities from their country; and
in between one can encounter a wide range of clients, i.e. translation users.

Discourse forms in Tertiary institutions students’ sexual discourse: the case of University
students in Lagos, Nigeria.
Oni-Buraimoh, Olawunmi Omolara & Bello, Oluwaseun Rachael
Lagos State University
Nigeria
Sexual discourse refers to sex-related verbal activities that many Nigerian tertiary institution students engage in.
Existing studies have addressed sexual discourse from socio-cultural, sociolinguistic and critical linguistic perspectives
but have not adequately studied its pragmatic import, especially in relation to encounters centering on sexual
intercourse. In this paper, therefore, we investigate the discourse forms in the sexual discourse of students of tertiary
institutions in Lagos State, Nigeria. This is with a view to identifying the linguistic items as used in context.
The study adopted aspects of conceptual metaphor, together with pragmemic and contextual beliefs theories.
Twenty purposive tape recordings of students’ conversations were made in two universities, one hundred structured
interviews were conducted with 50 students in each of the institutions, and two focus-group discussions were held
with six students each in the institutions. Participant observation was randomly undertaken on the students’
interactions. The corpus data were subjected to pragmatic analysis.
Two discourse forms characterise the encounters: plain euphemisms and metaphors. Plain euphemisms bifurcate
into sound indicative and sense indicative euphemisms; metaphors trifurcate into euphemistic, dysphemistic and
slangy metaphors. Euphemistic metaphors are derived from five source domains: food/fruit, security, mysticism,
leisure/sport and everyday language; dysphemistic metaphors from the army, carpentry, food/meat and everyday
language; and slangy metaphors from sports, music, Internet and Nigerian cultures.
Lagos State tertiary institutions students deploy creative linguistic forms with context-sensitive functions in their
sexual discourse. Thus, understanding the language of sex among the students requires background knowledge of
the social, linguistic and interactional resources the students draw upon in their sexual discourse.

Achieving Credibility in Quasi- Judicial Discourse: A Genre Analysis Approach to the
Report of the Commission of Enquiry into Post-election Violence in Kenya
Orwenjo, Daniel Ochieng
Kenyatta University
Kenya
This paper assesses the strategies used to achieve credibility in written judicial discourse by analysing the Report of
the Commission of Inquiry into Post-election Violence in Kenya (also known as the Waki Report of 2008). It is argued
that Commission of Inquiry Reports, as texts, essentially constitute distinctive genres with particular defining
characteristics. One such characteristic which sets them apart from other related genres-other types of reports-is
the fact that Commission of Inquiry Reports have an inherent credibility and acceptability burden imposed on them
by virtue of the fact that the authors of such reports would naturally expect the appointing authority, other
stakeholders and other people that the report touches on to believe, accept, adopt, and implement its findings.
Genres are conceived of as texts constituting particular conventions of content (such as themes or settings) and/or
form (including structure and style) which are shared by the texts which are regarded as belonging to them. Genres
comprise a set of communicative events, the members of which share some set of communicative purposes (Swales,
1990). Exemplars of a genre exhibit various patterns of similarity in terms of structure, style, content and intended
audience. Using the Genre Analysis Approach outlined by Swales (1990), the Waki Report was analysed with a view
to finding out the inherent features within it that could be constitutive of a genre. The paper concludes that the
report of the commission adopts certain linguistic and formal strategies reflective of its generic class in an effort to
achieve credibility but fails in this endeavour due to certain extraneous factors.

Novel as a Site of Conflicting Discourses— A Discursive Analysis of Richard Wright’s
Native Son
Pan, Runrun
Zhejiang University
China
One of the most controversial novels in the history of American literature, Native Son (1940) has since its birth
incurred a multitude of polemical and often opposing critiques. The protagonist Bigger Thomas, an uneducated
young black man who accidentally killed his white employer’s daughter, is regarded by some critics as a victim of
racial and social injustice, and thus the book itself is reduced to an exemplary naturalist and protest manifesto.
Whereas some others denote in him a spirit of existentialism and idealism which transform him into a rebellious hero
who, with pure self will, is able to transcend his mundane milieu and mental sufferings. There are also lengthy
articles and books dealing with religious issues as well as the undertones of Marxism in the novel. The proliferation
of diverse approaches to Native Son is a conspicuous demonstration of how a novel turns into a site of conflicting
discourses when critics as professional readers bring their own expectations and tools in the process of coding and
decoding of literary works. To borrow a term from French philosopher Michel Foucault, “discursive formation” is
prior to the generation of specific meaning either in the form of truth or opinion. This paper is intended as an
analysis of the how those conflicting discourses, such as religious, philosophical, political and racial discourses, are
created as the novel is scrutinized from different perspectives, which inevitably presume a inherent and coherent
structure of meaning veiled in a certain layer of the text. It is found that meaning is a play of combination involving
both context and text, both the author and the reader.

Caste Consciousness and Gender Discrimination in Indian Society as Reflected in Arundhati
Roy’s The God of Small Things
Patil, Nivrutti
A. T. College
India
Mahatma Gandhi asserted that untouchability is a crime against God and man. Indian society has radically changed
since then but still the age old discrimination of man on the basis of his caste remains a distinctive mark of social
scenario of India. Another marked feature of Indian culture is the subordinate position of women in comparison with
men. These two evils have very badly degenerated Indian social fabric. These evils have been very powerfully
portrayed in Arundhati Roy’s Booker Prize winning novel The God of Small Things. This novel presents realistic picture
of the horrible social and cultural conventions of the country. The two protagonists of this book, Ammu and Velutha,
are mercilessly crushed down by the two age-old sins. Ammu hails from a high class / caste society of Syrian
Christians of Kerala, the South Indian state and Velutha is from the downtrodden untouchable caste. The family of
Ammu and the society at large act against the love between them. Ammu’s parents and relatives have different sets
of code of conduct for men and women of the family. Women are not allowed to have independent views on / of
their own love and marriage. They have no choice but to follow the traditional laws in this regard. Ammu defies
these inhuman conventions and marries a man of her choice but unfortunately her marriage does not last long and
she returns to her parents as a divorcee. Indian society has no provision to permit women to share the inherited
property of her parents; only male heirs share it. Her brother, Chacko, is a glaring contrast to her. He can marry any
woman he likes and he can also be allowed to have illicit relations with women of any caste and class. A divorcee like
Ammu is shunned from loving a man from a low caste. Her lover, Velutha, is killed by the brutal attack of the police
on false complain and abandoned Ammu dies very pitiably in lonely and shabby lodge in a city. Perhaps, globalization
will help India to absolve herself of these deadly practices.

Semiotic-discursive intercultural practices between graffiti writers from Mexico City
Pedroza, Marco Tulio
National School of Anthropology and History
Mexico
Graffiti writers make a global culture that expanded along with its semiotic-discursive practices, from the city of New
York then to the 1970s. Currently in Mexico City, the culture of graffiti writers has a history of more than 20 years.
Such culture, as other societies and cultures, has a structural condition that constitutes by historical dimensions,
political, artistic, religious, economic, psychological, etc..., that is to say, is multidimensional. To access these multiple
dimensions is essential to include information about semiotic-discursive practices, the local and the global context,
as well the intercultural and the complex in the graffiti writers.
The knowledge about information or isolated elements is insufficient, in any multicultural analysis the information
and the elements should be placed in their contexts. From this perspective, we propose the global as the relationship
between the whole and its parts, the global culture of graffiti writers is present within each subject that makes up
that culture. The intercultural is one of the characteristics of complex units as subjects, society or culture. The subject
takes various structural places, which are socio-historical-political-cultural-artistic. In this paper we analyze the
classification systems used by graffiti writers, highlight the importance of migratory and cultural flows necessary for
the conformation of their culture. We also discuss the conditions of production, circulation and reception of
semiotic-discursive practices, and some aspects of the constitution of identity of the subjects, by analyzing their
social formations, ideological and semiotic-discursive, which impact the imaginary formations.

Framing and reframing Pirin paran katayabira online: The construction of Okinawan and
Japanese language ideologies on the participatory web
Petrucci, Peter & Miyahira, Katsuyuki
Massey University; University of the Ryukyus
New Zealand
This presentation draws on multi-modal discourse analysis to examine the construction of Okinawan and Japanese
language ideologies that frame the Pirin paran katayabira series. Since it appears within the interconnected
borderless space of web 2.0, Pirin paran katayabira cannot be fully appreciated without an examination of viewer
commentary ensuing from the series. The presentation therefore continues the analysis by considering two kinds of
viewer data: written comments and YouTube video responses. In both cases, those posting comments are acting as
mediators between Okinawan language activists and a growing global audience interested in Okinawan language and
culture. But it is not necessarily the case that commentary reflects the same ideologies espoused by Fija. Turning to
YouTube video responses, these are of particular interest because they feature unknown people from outside
Okinawa giving Uchinaaguchi a go. As with the original videos, these careful Uchinaaguchi performances, together
with their subtitled translation, are imbued with language ideology. Moreover, these extraordinary efforts in the
language generate further viewer commentary, including some from proficient speakers of Uchinaaguchi. The
participatory web, then, serves as a platform through which the language ideologies embedded in the Pirin paran
katayabira series are circulated, applied, resisted and reworked.
Pirin paran katayabira and the commentary resulting from it show the promise that digitized communication
technologies hold for recognising Japan’s endangered languages and encouraging a globalised ‘wired’ campaign for
their maintenance. It remains to be seen, however, whether the Okinawan discourse spaces emerging out of the
participatory web help define the Ryukyuan languages along the lines advocated by local language activists and
educators or whether they introduce different forms of designation and legitimation.

'Silence is a prayer': Japanese Discourses of Spirituality
Petkova, Diana
Sofia University
Bulgaria
This paper presents the findings of an ethnographical research done in the region of Osaka, Japan. 27 Japanese
informants were interviewed with face-to-face interviews recorded on tapes. They were asked about their personal
beliefs and spiritual practices and experiences. It was found out that Japanese discourses of spirituality often dwell
on silence as a means of communicating the deepest personal emotions and psychological sensations. It was also
discovered that some specific cultural concepts in Japan, such as ‘giri’ (obligation), ‘ninjo’ (individual inclinations
related to universal feelings’, ‘hadji’ (shame), ‘face keeping’ and ‘face saving’ are not only influenced by religious
beliefs, ideas and teachings, but often also communicated by silence. The paper will investigate the particular
Japanese understanding of universal concepts, such as ‘life’, ‘death’, ‘happiness-unhappiness’, ‘suffering’, ‘destiny’, etc.
It will also outline the important role that silence has in Japanese culture as a way of communicating intimate
feelings.

Imagined Interactions: Students’ Perceptions and Experiences of Intercultural Interactions
in English-Medium Programmes
Phan Le Ha
Monash University
Australia
Despite the increasing internationalisation of higher education and the growing role of English as an international
language, the belief that “the West is better” and that native speakers are desirable and the only ‘authentic’ owners
of English continues to shape many students’ perceptions and self-described experiences in English-medium
universities/programs across the globe. This belief and their experiences have further paved the way for certain
discourses and certain values to dominate English-medium classrooms. This paper examines how international
students perceive and ‘live’ intercultural interactions in English-medium programmes in foreign universities located in
Asia. Drawing on the data obtained from students studying at these universities, it specifically addresses how these
students describe and elaborate on the concept ‘intercultural interaction’ and its underlying discourses. Interestingly,
an intercultural interaction in many cases, in the eyes of the participants, does not involve participants from more
than one culture, but rather between a ‘real’ group of participants and an imagined interlocutor entity. Such
imagination, boldly, continues to shape policy, practice and pedagogy of the internationalization of higher education.
Accordingly discourses associated with “the West is better” and “native speakers are desirable” are not only
consolidated, desired for but also shape the identity formation of students in international education in ways that
speak against the presently promoted discourses of international students
exercising a free-willed and
cosmopolitan spirit with self-determination.

On Verbal Expression of Threat in Pedagogical Discourse
Pshenichnikova, Anna
Far Eastern Federal University
Russia
Pedagogical discourse belongs to a family of formalized institutional discourses with communicants’ speech patterns
regulated by speech codes of represented social institutions. Speech of teachers and students reflects their status
inequality; the discourse main purpose (to transfer knowledge, social norms and values) empowers a teacher to
direct and control students’ activities. Consequently, pedagogical discourse is rich in stereotypic set phrases,
traditionally directive, that realize strategies of control and subordination. However, analysis of teacher-student
dialogues, selected from school-novels, shows that a teacher’s speech includes other means of exercising regulative
functions in pedagogical discourse such as a threat, an insult, a sneer, etc.
A speech act of threat (a menacive) constitutes an act of verbal aggression on the part of an addresser, aimed at
influencing addressee’s actions through a prospect of causing intentional harm to an addressee. Utilized by a teacher,
a menacive usually implies a distinct negative evaluation of student’s actions and an instruction for a student to act
differently.
This study focuses on linguistic aspects of realizing menacives in pedagogical discourse. We shall analyze verbal
means employed in school-novel dialogues to formulate a threat, to intensify it, to lessen its effects on an addressee,
or to make a threat altogether vague and implicit. We shall also try to find out in what communicative situations a
menacive is commonly found and whether its use proves effective in regulating educational process.

Cognitive and Pragmatic constraints on Topic chai
Pu, Ming-Ming
University of Maine
USA
The present study investigates the occurrence and distribution of zero anaphora, especially in the form of a topic
chain, in Chinese and English narratives, and explores the relationship between cognitive activities and reference
tracking in discourse. It argues that the use of topic chain is determined, to a great extent, by general cognitive and
pragmatic constraints rather than language-specific factors. Although topic chain is generally considered to be a
common discourse device unique to topic-oriented languages like Chinese, it is often found in subject-oriented
languages like English as well, so long as the conditions that warrant the occurrence of zero anaphora are satisfied.
The study first discusses cognitive activities underlying reference tracking and explicates how the syntax of reference
is a function of the cognitive accessibility of a given referent in discourse processing, and how pragmatic and
discourse factors contribute to the cognitive accessibility of the referent. The study proposes a cognitive-functional
principle to account for the occurrence and distribution of zero anaphora: The more accessible the referent, the less
explicit the coding form. In discourse realization, the degree of cognitive accessibility is represented by the degree
of thematic coherence: The more coherent the discourse segment where a referent occurs, the less explicit the
anaphoric coding of the referent. More specifically, a topic chain would be used in a span of discourse where there
exists maximum thematic coherence, i.e., where no discontinuity of any kind occurs and where a local, topical
referent persists and recurs.
The study demonstrates that, with experimental and text data of Chinese and English, topic chain is indeed triggered
by maximum thematic coherence and blocked by any kind of thematic discontinuity, albeit some language-specific
differences in morph-syntactic marking and clause conjoining and chaining. As a result, the distributional patterns
of zero anaphora are remarkably similar between Chinese and English discourse.

Understanding Confucian Space Backwards in Discourses: An Ethnographic Writing on
Confucian Heritage Site in Qufu
Qin, Bailan (钦白兰)
Zhejiang University
China
The ancient City of Qufu, Confucius’ homeplace, boasts many a Confucian site on world heritage list, where
Authorized Heritage Discourse governs their contemporary understandings. Other than that, during the past 2500
years, it beholds a spatial transformation which shows different representations/discursive formations through
epochs of times. Especially, during last 60 years, movable cultural heritages as spatial markers were unearthed and
moved, thus prompting a seismic meaning shift of the places, and ultimately leading to loss of identity. More than
that, reconstruction and reestablishment of heritage sites for cultural tourism influenced largely by “developing”
discourses occurs in recent years. Urban or rural landscapes are changed through copying western models where
dilemmas and conflicts show up in contemporary China. However, local community’ senses/attachments to those
sacred places could be traced in oral history/memories in the local olds and untouched historical records since the
early 1990s. In context of Chinese industrialization, urbanization and modernization, and addressing issues
concerning heritage preservation and management, this presentation, first of all, will present a Confucian
understanding of heritage (Wu 2013) and raises a critical question: how the past could engage into dialogues on
present critical issues? How the understanding of Confucian space could contribute to the crisis in modernity?
The presentation will show fragmented discourses collected from oral history from local communities. They are doors
to a larger hall where larger inter-textual memory texts are used to re-make and re-narrate stories. These fragmented
texts are interweaved in a way to make sense of ritual practices as living heritages to show a critical review of the
past of present which has been ignored, silenced and on the verge of forgetting. While doing so, space is taken as a
perspective to discover Confucian meanings on heritage sites, where a holistic understanding of Chinese values could
be aptly achieved. In all cases the presentation tend to show like stone movement to museum in Qufu, Gu Pan Pond’s
rehabilitation, a death ritual in Qu ancient village, last Confucius’ descent as a Confucianist, I will highlight a living
heritage in pedagogical space. This vernacular heritage is the spirit of Confucian space which still could be sensed but
is gradually losing “voices” in face of modernity. They are the Confucian rituals performed unconsciously in people’s
daily life. It is interpreted that though time has eroded all material remains on a place, as long as memory texts pass
on and function in people’s practice and talking, it is the perception on Confucian space that transforms any
Authorized Heritage Discourse prescribed. Chinese ritual embedded in space is what I mean Confucian Space on
heritage sites. Such space offers an access to the authenticity of marginal discourses as living Chinese heritage
(modes of thinking, behaviors in life, etc. and shows a cultural shock to the otherness. It is finally argued that the
cultural differences and alternative ways of thinking in pedagogy that should be counted as the outstanding universal
values.

Several indigenous peoples living in the Mexican state of Guerrero. Today some of these young people, are
consolidated discourses and practices for environmental restoration and natural resources to make them territory
that is structurally linked to their culture and worldview.
These young people are being educated at a university that offers multiculturalism as a way of understanding and
exchange, the basis for the promotion of this multiculturalism is the preservation of their territory where they can
apply
their culture and practice their worldview.
Culture-territory-worldview are discursive and practical space for the production and reproduction of semiosis, it is
captured in the ideas that these young people have to retrieve the food sovereignty and autonomy in their territory,
suggesting the recovery of land culture by agro ecological practices. For these forms of cultivation is necessary that
the community has sufficient water to retrieve their land fertility; water quality is at risk due to the projection of a
gold mine open pit that threatens to end water sources in the region, coupled with this, these people are working in
their territory and resources maintaining their culture and worldview which consolidates a way to recover the land
infertile, to recognize the importance production of its form as sustaining a particular way of life and are the

On the Inequality of Discourse Power

Both sides in the communication command the discourse differently because of their different statuses. Complex
differential power relationships of discourse extend to every aspect of our social, cultural and political lives. Based on
the theoretical framework and research methods of Fairclough’s and Foucoult’s studies on critical discourse analysis
(CAD), this paper analyzes the power relationships of discourse from the perspective of sociology, taking the
classroom discourse, media discourse, trial discourse, medical discourse, etc. as the examples, and proposes that the
power of discourse has the following characteristics: being institutional, covert, and variational, aiming at finding out
the ways in which the person with superior power tries to cover up the unequal relationship, such as
conversationalization, informality, involvement, and use of indexical information, so that it can help realize the
essence of the power of discourse clearly in order to avoid using the biased language in the harmonious society.

Discourses of Sexuality and Desire Among African American Girls
Richardson, Elaine
The Ohio State University
USA
This paper examines a narrative of sexual harassment, by an 11 year-old, “Bria,” who managed to ward-off unwanted
and inappropriate sexual advances by older boys while riding the bus. By simply being a “big” Black girl in an
impoverished public space, she is targeted or read as being sexually available to boys. Bria and her peers (and the
adult mentor present) unequivocally read this interaction—the boys’ advances and Bria’s response—as sexual
harassment. In this case, the community of Black females read a Black girl’s sexual agency and sexuality as
un-projected and thus, worthy of honor, empathy, and undivided attention—aspects of what Staples (2012) calls
“literate witnessing,” compassionate empathetic acts of sense-making and assessment of experience. These acts
occur in relation to shared experiences, testimonials, or perspectives and are incited by participation in purposeful
communal reading, writing, speaking, and listening that attests to truth, strong emotions, hardship, or negating
behavior as a part of affirmation, healing and self-recovery. Examination of another narrative from an 11-year old girl,
“Assata,” asserts her sexuality. Juxtaposition and critical analysis of the differential discourses invoked by the two
shared narratives allow us to examine the lived experiences of Black women and girls in relation to dominating
discourses, as Black women and girls’ sexual agency and desire figure prominently in larger economies of power,
knowledge and society. Hill Collins (1991) argues that it is imperative that Black females explore their embodied
knowledge for the purposes of self-validation and to create new knowledge about for their collective empowerment.
This work explores these ideas in developing critical discourse practice among young Black girls in a race, class and
gender-specific afterschool program.

Political Discourses of Hong Kong’s One-Way Permit Scheme in Communication Outlets
Rosa Marina Kay & Cornelius B. Pratt
University of Massachusetts & Temple University
USA
The influx of mainland Chinese into Hong Kong from the 1980s has resulted in Chinese and Hong Kong governments’
issuing one-way permits to Chinese mainlanders to reside in Hong Kong. Nowadays, mostly men from Hong Kong,
visited the mainland to consummate marriages, returned to Hong Kong without their spouses, and faced
sociopsychological, linguistic, and educational difficulties in their new families, particularly those of the socially and
economically disadvantaged. This paper argues that even though the cultural environments of both mainland China
and Hong Kong are similar, differences between both governments are only evident in news media portrayals of
political discourses. Such differences reflect political differences between Hong Kong and Beijing, and, at the same
time, the migrants’ experiences in mainland and Hong Kong. Thus, this paper applies critical-cultural theory to
analyze two Hong Kong-based daily newspapers—the South China Morning Post and China Daily (Hong Kong
version)—and Hong Kong government’s press releases and its officials’ speeches for their political discourses, and to
offer a blueprint for a migration policy that has the potential to improve significantly a migration experience fraught
with social disparities, misinterpretations, and selective policy enforcement.

The urban context is an space of cultural diversity which contains events as boroughs (barrio) identity, like the case
of the city of San Pedro Cholula. It are based on a specific religion, a result of the amalgamation of the Catholic
religion, the system charges and ritual.
In this socioreligious area coexist elements colloquially understood as "traditional" and "modern", with elements
prehispanic, colonial and contemporary, which are interspersed in conjunction in rural and urban areas, some of
them preserved, and other transforming to bring its persistence.
This local specificity culture contains discourses and semiosis of various types, highlighting the first of oral language,
and in the second the visual, auditory and taste, which coexists with a metropolitan culture here defined as that
results from the urbanizante global Western hegemony, both may be in conflict or in harmony, as applicable, so that
such specificity cultural, within this context can be, depending on the situation in parallel or alternative, as has
sometimes asymmetric bias, although in others manteining a continuum within the urban, social practice that can be
glimpsed as inseparable, which consequently leads to multiculturalism, thereby granting him a unique social group
that plays it, which from this perspective could be defined as socioreligious community.
That is why in this essay are intended analyzed through ethnography interdiscursive, intertextual and intersemiotic
elements in socioreligious community formed by the ten boroughs (barrios) of San Pedro Cholula, focusing
specifically on the Santa Maria Xixitla to understand from the complexity different forms of multiculturalism that the
social group has in the urban environment and its implications with respect to the local identity.

Looking at Multilingual and Multilingual Classroom Discourse from the Ethnography of
Policy Perspective
Saxena, Mukul & Martin-Jones, Marilyn

The ethnography of policy is a distinctive and growing tradition of research on multilingual and multicultural
classroom discourse. This paper will first provide an overview of two broad generations of studies: a first generation
of research in multilingual and multicultural classroom contexts that grew out of the field of linguistic anthropology
in North America; a second generation of studies, emerging from the early 1990s onwards, that developed critical,
interpretive approaches to the study of multilingual classroom interaction. The second generation studies were
conducted in a wider range of research sites and they were explicitly framed with reference to language-in-education
policies. This paper, then, presents case studies from Europe and Asia and argues that they represent a third
generation of studies that are opening up new epistemological spaces at the interface with other fields of research,
such as multimodality in classroom interaction or ethnography of language policy, while building on the robust
foundation of first and second generation research.

Chinese Students Writing in English. Discourse Analysis of Textual What Students Can

Aiming at describing the details of the process of spicing up the traditionally boring course of English Creative Writing
with the purpose of preparing students for national exams, this paper falls into the rubrics of the naturalistic inquiry
which works with naturally occurring settings and groups and “a situated qualitative research” supported by the
quantitative data analysis obtained from the experiment with teaching and the results of thematic, textual, stylistic
and narrative analyses of the 20 participants’ essays. The paper is in line with the current trend of the embedded
one-shot case studies conducted by internal observers at the grass root level and also encouraged by an obvious shift
in the ESL teaching paradigm from teacher-centrism to learner-centrism. Visible results are not impressive, but worth
noticing: 1) students learned to use real life examples, learned how to use specific and real-life experienced based
examples making their writing more vivid, but they didn’t develop this habit and the use of real life situations and
personal experience is still minimal and insignificant in their writing. 2) they significantly reduced their first language
influence and stopped using rhetorical questions and repetitions after the month of training. 3) they started giving
personalized reasons as supporting ideas, started expressing the main ideas in the first sentence rather than at the
end of the first paragraph and started using synonyms and rephrased topic sentences. 4) they started using synonyms
and rephrased topic sentences at the end of essays.
5) after 4 months of training, they started paying attention to

On Goal Equivalence in Translating the Discourse Markers in Courtroom Interaction

China
Discourse markers such as “well”, “now” and “you see” are common in everyday oral communication, yet often
ignored and misinterpreted by court interpreters. In the interpreting process of discourse markers, as far as the
courtroom interaction is concerned, strategy is the linguistic surface representation, goal is the inner motivation. This
paper will present the results of a data-based study of courtroom interpreting focusing on the use of discourse
markers in courtroom interaction. The data consist of ten cases in china, which were audio-taped and later
transcribed by the author. This research first propose “Goal Equivalence” principle from the pragmatical and
philosophical perspective of interpreting strategies. This new approach aim to achieve equivalence of illocutionary
force, to match the level of coerciveness in lawyers’ questions, level of politeness, or equivalence of register in the
testimony.
This paper will address three major questions: 1 how discourse markers are defined and classified in courtroom
interaction, according to their pragmatic functions? 2 whether or not “Goal Equivalence” approach is adequate and
appropriate for the above-mentioned pragmatic functions? 3 what are the possible interpreting strategies for
discourse markers in courtroom interaction? How these strategies represent various perspective of
“Goal

Gender and Discourse: On the Role of Gender over the Discourse of Compliments-Giving
Suo, Chengxiu
Zhengzhou University
China
Complementing is a universal speech act that we experience—we give and receive complements—every day in our
daily interpersonal communication. However, the effect of gender upon compliments-giving has rarely been
documented by studies pertaining to the speech act of complimenting. Research in this line is mostly contrastive and
cross-cultural communication studies that focused on how people from two different cultures respond differently to
compliments. To examine how gender affects our act of giving complements, this essay documents a field report
study that is designed in the form of a written, scenario-based survey. Two broad research questions to be answered
are as the follows: Q.1 “Is gender an important factor in terms of the amount of compliment-making?” and Q.2 “Is
gender an important factor in selecting the topics/themes of complimenting?” Under Q. 2 are two specific questions:
1) “What are the most favorite topics/themes of compliments found in female-female talk, in contrast to the most
favorite topic of compliments observed in male-male talk?”; and 2) “In mixed-gender male-female talk, what are the
most common topics that a female speaker tends to compliment her male listener, and what topics/themes a male
speaker might compliment his female listener?” The hypothesis of the author is that there is a distinct gendered
difference—both in terms of the amount, and in terms of the topics/themes of complementing. To limit the potential
impact out of other variables (e.g., different cultures, nationalities, races, education, age, or profession), the author
limited her human consultants to college undergraduates studying at a mid-Western public university in the U.S. and
all her human consultants were born and grew up in the U.S.
Results of the survey have provided strong evidence
to support the abovementioned hypothesis: there is a substantial gendered difference in terms of the discourse of
compliments-giving.

All the fuss about that chocolate girl: Contemporary Chinese race talk and attitudes towards
interracial relationships
Tang, Qi & Yu, Jingcao
Tennessee State University & University of Electronic Science and Technology of China
USA & China
In the past three decades, China has undergone unprecedented historical changes since it opened up to the world,
embraced and became more and more integrated into a market-driven global economy. The increasing contact with
the outside world has exposed the once highly homogenous Chinese society to a greater cultural and racial diversity.
Yet, the research on Chinese attitudes towards racial and cultural differences has been noticeably scant. In order to
close this gap our study investigates the nature and contour of the evolving racial attitudes and expressions in China,
a country whose population accounts for a quarter of the world’s population. Informed by critical race theory, we
trace and document the most salient racial sentiments expressed in popular Chinese online forums on hot-button
race-related issues in general, and on interracial relationships in particular. Critical discourse analysis has been used
to identify the most prominent themes and discursive strategies that appear in those online race talks that reveal
Chinese public’s ambivalent attitudes towards Asian/Caucasian and Asian/Black interracial relationship. In the
process we revisit the history and cultural roots of those discourses as well as discuss how those race talks provide a
frame of reference to an authentic Chinese racial, cultural, and national identity.

The Janus face of the British media human rights discourse
Teubert, Wolfgang
University of Birmingham
UK
How can two contrarian sets of beliefs be convincingly justified by arguments? I will investigate the role arguments
play for the formulation of attitudes about human rights. The typology of arguments used in public (media) discourse
and the aspects deciding over their success (e.g. repetition and novelty) has so far been widely overlooked in
discourse linguistics. As I will show, it is neither factuality nor rationality or logic determining their success of
arguments but the way they are intertextually embedded in generally shared underlying attitudinal statements.
Over many decades now, the western human rights discourse has had the aim to morally discredit countries whose
governments were considered unfriendly towards western interests. Outcry after outcry have been reported for the
denial of the right to freedom of expression of dissidents, or the suppression of regional autonomy movements in the
name of the right to self-determination. It is argued that (these) human rights are universal and have to be applied
globally. These alleged violations of human rights habitually make front-page news in the case of countries not
popular with those who determine the content of western media.
In Britain, there is another side to the human rights issue. Important high circulation newspapers such as the Daily
Telegraph, the Sun or the Daily Mail have been supporting the battle for the repeal of the Human Rights Act, which
obliges the British courts to adhere to the European Convention of Human Rights. Often, decisions by the European
Court of Human Rights ruling that Britain was violating human rights, have been rejected because such rulings are
said to be contrary to the British legal culture, to her heritage and to her moral values. It is argued that a specifically
British Bill of Rights should replace the Human Rights Act.
The human rights discourse of China Daily holds up the universality of human rights and claims that Chinese human
rights policy is holistic and does not distinguish between different cultures. Thus it avoids the obvious contradictions
we find in British media discourse. My comparison of the arguments employed by China Daily with thise of the
British media will shed light on the way how the apparently contradictory British belief in the universality of human
rights can be reconciled with the belief that the human rights applicable to Britain should reflect specifically British
values.

Changing role of discourse markers: Evidence from corpus-based contrastive study
Thakur, Anil
Banaras Hindu University
India
Corpora are generally linked to NLP and language technology applications. This is largely true since most of the NLP
and language technology systems are being designed within corpus-based framework and also the popularity of
corpora has been generally linked with it. However, the domain of the use of corpora has multiplied and researchers
are still exploring newer domains of application of corpora. The use of corpora for contrastive study, particularly for a
pair of languages in the domain of language teaching and translation is being well recognized in the literature on
corpus study, language teaching and linguistics. For linguistic analysis of a text and its validation, dependence on
corpus is continuously increasing. In this paper, we examine some interesting data types to show the significance of a
good corpus for Hindi-English machine translation and language teaching.
One of the challenging issues in both language teaching and machine translation is to obtain a comprehensive
account of divergences between a pair of languages. Our traditional grammars are quite inadequate with respect to
provide a comparative account of various linguistic construction types. The nuances of subtle meaning differences
and consequently the need for accurate classification of various lexical items in a language are being recognized as a
challenging issue in both second language teaching and machine translation. For both teaching and linguistic analysis
of different uses of a lexical item as well as for determining its exact tag and meaning is greatly facilitated by using
corpora. A non-corpus-base analysis and teaching has high chance of ignoring a number of nuances of linguistic data.

Indian Political Discourse:Analysis of Statements Made by Some Indian Political Leaders
Thorat, Ashok
Institute of Advanced Studies in English
India
In the last few years India witnessed an unprecedented turbulence, inside and outside Parliament, which was related
to the issues of corruption and crime. At the same time, bomb blasts in the cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad and Pune
generated a lot of heat. The politicians in the opposing and the ruling parties were engaged in attacking and
defending, exposing and explaining. The statements made by party spokespersons and individual leaders often added
to the confusion. Some of the statements were amateurish and politically incorrect, so much so that a senior
minister in Maharashtra lost his ministry after he made a statement on Mumbai bomb blasts.
Now that the general elections are round the corner, some political actors are trying to publicly introspect, confess or
repair and consolidate their respective positions. Their statements – both prepared and impromptu - present
interesting pieces of political communication. Well-planned, politically correct statements are strategically loaded
with multifold messages whereas the amateurish and politically incorrect statements bring to the fore the clownish
side of some leaders.
The author has selected some highly marked statements of senior Indian political leaders for analysis. The examples
chosen are related different issues and problems and to leaders from different political parties. These instances are
analyzed using the author’s insights into the Indian political scenario, the features and nuances of the Indian political
culture and the socio-cultural contexts. An attempt has been made to show how these speech acts are structured,
expressed and what kinds of possible effects or influence they may have on the political cognition of the Indian
public at large.

The Ancient Interdiscursivity of the ‘Dance Conchera´ in the current Mexico
Valencia, José
National School of Anthropology and History
Mexico
Dance Conchera is a cultural practice that has its roots since time immemorial. However, with the arrival of the
Spaniards in America, their manifestation is interrupted by having to confront a markedly different context, mainly
because the Catholic Church considered it demonic and forbade it.
The Mesoamerican inhabitants had to find a strategy that succeeded in resolving its critical situation, because on the
one hand they wanted to hold their thoughts and ancient philosophy unless it was detected by the Christian
ecclesiastical authorities, and which on the other hand, letting them believe to the same that its evangelizing mission
had been achieved.
The strategy used turned to exploit the mechanisms of interculturalisation processes: interdiscursivity, intertextuality
and intersemiosis, especially the first one, because it can be seen in many of the verbal expressions that even the
dancers concheros, as in the case of their “alabanzas” or sacred songs, where is clearly exposed interdiscursively the
memory of an ancient culture.
This exhibition has as central objective to show how the cultural practice of ‘dance conchera’ managed to survive
until today, retaining much of its form and content pre-hispanic, thanks to the handling of an interdiscursivity,
because he managed to condense the thought and wisdom of the old Mexico with the speech of the Christian
institution, but, this has also developed an objective awareness thanks to its mostly artisanal production that has
kept it aside from a desperate consumerist dynamics of contemporary times.
‘Dance conchera’, thanks to its interdiscursivity, is held as an authentic alternative culture in Mexico.

Linguists against the hostile discourse
Vitez, Ana Zwitter
Trojina, Institute for Applied Slovene Studies
Slovenia
The aim of the communication is to present the analysis of a text of unknown authorship with elements of hostile
discourse and the possible doubts that a linguist can have before revealing his results to a wider audience.
The motivation for the study lies in vivid public reactions provoked by a post published by one of the largest
Slovenian political parties immediately after their defeat on the parliamentary elections. The text, signed only by a
pseudonym, held the assumption that the victory of the adversary party lies in an important number of immigrant
voters to which they attributed citizenship recently before the elections. The foreign voters were supposed to be
strangely dressed and almost illiterate – guided by a number written on their hands to help them choose the right
candidate.
The analysis was led by the following hypothesis: if the unknown author published the controversy text in days
following the elections, it seems quite possible that the same author has published other posts on the same website
under another (or real) name. For this reason, we included into the analysis all the signed posts published three
months before and three months after the publication of the controversy texts. The collected corpus consists of 75
texts written by 21 known authors.
The results of scaling linguistic features on the lexical and readability level lead to the conclusion that it is very likely
that one of the 21 potential authors has written the controversial text. The question that remains open for a linguist
is how to present the results of such an analysis without passing for a politically motivated researcher.

A corpus-based discourse analysis of mental depression in British and Chinese news
Wang, Fang
University of Birmingham
UK
This research investigates the social construction (Burr, 2003) of an increasingly relevant aspect of social life, namely
mental depression, in Western and Chinese news media in the last two decades, aiming at delivering a contribution
to people’s understanding of the link between the discourse and the social reality of depression. The theoretical and
methodological framework applied is corpus-based discourse analysis.
Discourse in this study is understood as “the totality of all the texts that have been produced within a discourse
community” (Teubert, 2005, p. 3). The special discourse I analyse is represented by two diachronic corpora consisting
of articles in which the lexical item depression or 抑郁症 (yiyuzheng, ‘depression’)occurs in British and Chinese
national newspapers from 1984 to 2009. Both corpora have a diachronic dimension, which is analysed by dividing
them into phases. Traditional corpus linguistic approaches such as frequency, collocation and key word analyses are
complemented by a targeted analysis of the paraphrastic content expressed in the context of relevant key words. This
new approach highlights the ways in which meaning is continually re-negotiated.
My findings suggest that in the British corpus, there has been a circular movement in the construction of the
meanings of depression, swinging between a psychological problem that needs psychotherapy and a biochemical
condition that needs pharmaceutical intervention. My Chinese corpus, on the other hand, constructs ’抑郁症’
(yiyuzheng, ‘depression’) as a problem that is normally caused by external social factors, and therefore psychological
support and improvement of the social environment have been represented as more helpful than medical treatment.
The contribution of this research is threefold: firstly, from a methodological perspective, it shows how to do
corpus-based discourse analysis; secondly it argues that the diachronic dimension of discourse must not be
overlooked when studying meaning; lastly, it shows that our concept of depression is socially constructed
independently of the question whether there is ‘really’ such a thing as depression.

Reference, Presentation and Positioning in Said's Orientalism
Wang, Guofeng
Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University
China
The referential connotations of the personal pronoun subject “we”, as well as its possessive adjective and pronoun
forms “our” and “ours”, may vary according to cultural context. In the context of Said’s work, Orientalism, these
forms are sometimes used to refer to some or all Arabs, and at other times to some or all Americans. Said also uses
“we”, in quotation marks, to refer to the American government or the mainstream American media. These forms of
reference serve to illustrate Said’s dual identity as an Arab and an elite American scholar, which in turn informs his
positioning. His frequent use of “we” and “they” provides ammunition for critics of Said who see a prejudicial bias in
his representations of oriental and western culture. This essay analyzes the patterns of usage of Said’s references to
refute criticism of his alleged bias, and suggests that he instead uses them intentionally in Orientalism to portray a
worldview free of prejudice and discrimination. Said’s very personal style of narration may well originate from his
cross-cultural history, as well as from his agonizing early-life experiences of personal loss which resulted in an
ambivalent sense of belonging. The occasional use of “they” to refer to Palestine or Palestinians may indicate that
Said feels himself to be an outsider in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, whereas his use of “they” to
refer to American academic circles, mainstream media, and government may seem to indicate a cultural aversion to
these entities. This essay provides many examples that reveal how Said’s personal history influences his use of
referential forms in Orientalism, and how these forms position his literary persona, which simultaneously presents,
embraces, and reflects differing views while positing a world free of cultural bias.

There always have been differences between Oriental and Western civilization since ancient times. And so have been
the communication and collision between Oriental and Western culture. However, communication and integration,
peace and development are the theme of our times. The paper tries to take the study on Pa Chin home and abroad
as an example, using the variation theory of comparative literature to contrast and compare differences and
similarities of the study on Pa Chin in the oriental discourse and the western discourse to find out the heterogeneity
and variability as well as the interactive study on Pa Chin home and abroad in mutual emulation and to explore the
reasons for the heterogeneity which arises from that. It intends to provide scholars home and abroad with more
rational, objective, scientific research to restudy, reread and reinterpret Pa Chin in order to head the significance of
his works to a multicultural complicated contemporary understanding. And make it academically a communication
between the study on humanities and the overseas sinology, which has played a positive role in promoting
interaction between oriental and overseas sinology. Meanwhile, it is expected to become a window through Chinese
culture and academic to the world. It is expected to become an interactive platform between Chinese Humanities
and overseas sinology. It is also expected to contribute some important academic significance and application value
to the communication and integration between the oriental and western culture and civilization.

The Influence of Confucianism in Xinjiang
—An Exploratory Study of Discourse Analysis
Wang, Xiaoling
Shanghai International Studies University; Beifang University for Nationalities
China
Culture influences our lives through an invisible way. Nowadays, while the frequency of Confucius doctrines’
appearance is not like what it was 500 hundred years before, its effect on modern Chinese life can not be denied.
However, as is like fish cannot feel the existence of water, people living under the influence of one certain culture
cannot accurately describe it. To realize the rejuvenation of Chinese nation, we need to find the source of vitality of
Confucianism, which is the essence of Chinese culture. The present study argues that the most powerful elements of
Confucianism may be found through its influence on a different culture, for example, the ethnic culture. Therefore,
the purpose of the study is to find the influence of Confucianism in Xinjiang Autonomous Region.
Intercultural contact between Confucianism and Xinjiang culture has been a long history despite linguistic, religious,
social, etc…. differences between them. The historical study on cultural exchange between them will be provided as
the preliminary study. Then, through the discourse analysis of several popular TV series in Xinjiang Vygur
Autonomous Region, and their effect upon Xinjiang audience, the study tends to find values which are embedded in
the TV series and identified by Xingjiang people. Caution will be given to the age, linguistic competence, region,
educational background of the sample.
The present study is an exploratory examination toward the finding of the influence of Confucianism in Xinjiang. The
limitation of the study will also be discussed.

Measuring the Effectiveness of China’s Soft Power: A Critical Discourse Analysis of the
Confucius Institute Project and its Implications for Foreign Policy and International Relations
Weber, Ian
University of the South Pacific
Fijian
The usual distinction between hard power and soft power is that the behaviour-changing ability of the former relies
on coercion and the latter on attraction and persuasion. According to Joseph S. Nye, hard power resources include
coercive capabilities, such as military and economic means whereas soft power resources are based on culture,
values and institutions. It is to this end that the Chinese Government launched a range of initiatives that utilise soft
power to attract international support through subtler positioning of its culture within education frameworks. This
paper critically evaluates the strategy employed by the Chinese Government to expand its international reach and
influence through soft power that projects global cultural leadership by establishing hundreds of Confucius Institutes
worldwide.
Confucius Institutes are a core component of China's soft power strategy, or campaign to increase its influence and
accomplish its goals through the appeal of its language and culture. Although there are an increasing number of
studies published on China’s soft power, few attempts have been made to assess the Confucius Institute Project’s
contribution to achieving China’s goals of increasing its influence in world politics. This paper aims to address this gap.
It begins by defining soft power and how this concept is seen by China as a component of its foreign policy and
international relations strategy, then outlines the current scope, extent and objectives of the Confucius Institute
Project. The paper argues that China has successfully established Confucius Institutes in an impressive array of
countries and regions, but the actual influence and benefits China derives from this project are currently limited to
shaping preferences in language learning and attitudes towards China.
To test this assumption, the study conducted a critical discourse analysis of published academic articles on China’s
Confucius Institute Project. An initial search on Google Scholar retrieved 6,440 articles, published from 2002-2012
using the keyword “China”, “soft power” and “Confucius Institutes”. To increase the manageability of the study, an
equal-probability strategy of systematic sampling (every 10th article in the frame was selected, where k, the
sampling interval, is calculated as: K=N/n, where n is the sample size and N is the population size) was employed.
Sample documents (n=644) were then coded to identify the discourse themes relating to the two critical criteria –
influence and benefits – emerging within the content of each of the sampled articles. The themes were then
compared and contrasted against the objectives of the Confucius Institute Project to reveal whether the institutes
have contributed beyond the core aspects of shaping preferences in language learning and attitudes towards China.
Results of the study will be presented, analysed and discussed to reveal the implications of such initiatives on China’s
foreign policy and international relations strategy.

Ethnocentrism and scientific power structures in intercultural research collaborations:
challenges of Sino-European joint projects
Weidemann, Doris
University of Applied Sciences of Zwickau
Germany
While international business cooperation has been intensively studied in recent decades, comparatively little is
known about the practice of intercultural science collaborations. Apparently, the assumption that ‘rational’ scientific
thinking and action is unaffected by cultural factors has prevented a systematic analysis of intercultural science
communication. Yet, experiences from international research projects show that international research cooperation
holds considerable challenges on an intercultural level as well as concerning the effects of global scientific power
structures. Postcolonial studies and indigenization movements have heightened our awareness of the implicit
Eurocentrism of social theories that spread from Western countries to science communities worldwide. Global
science structures have been called “hegemonic” or “imperialist” as they reflect the US economic, political, and
military dominance in the postwar era. The terms also refer to the ways in which participation in international
science is regulated, i.e. which topics are given an international agenda and whose voices are silenced.
The presentation asks if and how ethnocentrism and scientific imperialism that have been described on a structural
level manifest themselves on the level of individual scientific cooperation, especially in European-Chinese
interactions. Cultural psychological case studies will be presented showing that even experienced and
well-intentioned researchers cannot always avoid ethnocentric biases and sometimes (unwillingly) reproduce global
power structures in the microcosm of specific projects. Finally, ways for improvement are given some thought: How
can an equal intercultural dialogue of researchers be established? What kind of (intercultural) competences do
scholars need, and how can young researchers be trained?

一般说来，
《狂人日记》被认为是中国现代第一篇白话小说，然而如何从文言——白话的转型这一语言的
角度描述《狂人日记》的诞生，鲜有让人满意的探求。本文试图从语言否定性的角度探讨《狂人日记》发生
的语言机制。第一部分描述《狂人日记》诞生之前鲁迅的语言意识可能隐藏着语言不可信任的部分。鲁迅听
章太炎文字课程可能获得一种暗示，语言的诡伪成为一种语言的集体无意识。他翻译安特莱夫的《谩》时所
体味的那种语言的欺骗性可能回应着语言的诡伪这一集体无意识。他创作《怀旧》时，对以“解”“注”“疏”等形
式呈现的书面文言的庞大的阐释系统则表示了拒绝与警惕。鲁迅这种语言的结构笔者称之为语言的“谩-诚”失
衡。第二部分从语言否定性出发，揭示鲁迅创作《狂人日记》的语言发生机制。鲁迅在语言的否定性场域中，
通过言说即小说写作，把自己委托给绝望。语言的否定性场域即鲁迅意识中语言不可信任的语言本我，它决
定着《狂人日记》的意义走向。它把语言自我所实践的确证绝望的言说/小说创作，置于不可信任的语言本我
中，从而显示语言自我的言说/小说创作自身的不可信任，由此彻底地把创作者鲁迅委托给他自己所设想的存
在而不可确证的绝望。这是鲁迅创作《狂人日记》的语言发生学机制。第三部分描述语言否定性如何在文本
的白话与文言的包孕与搏杀中得到呈现的。在白话日记中，狂人白话切开文言书面系统这一坚硬的肿瘤，又
斫碎日常白话这一柔韧的铁幕，最后它又以其锋利刺向自身。当狂人回到文言世界，一方面小序文言否定白
话日记的正当性，另一方面又以供医家研究的隐喻方式暗含着白话日记的某种合理性。因此，狂人白话与书
面文言、日常白话处在多重的相互包孕和多重的相互搏杀之中，于是《狂人日记》得以诞生。

A Cultural and Discourse study on Corporate Annual Reports in Hong Kong
Womg, Pui Kwong
City University of Hong Kong
Hong Kong, China
Today’s world has become a ‘consumer culture’ and Featherstone (1991) points out that many of our consumer
activities, whether in business or in other professional or institutionalised contexts have to some extent been
influenced by promotional concerns. Cultural reflexivity indicates that Chinese culture and Western culture have
different views on the promotion strategies. Confucius said, “The gentleman is ashamed of his word outstripping his
deed.”
As regards the issue of interdiscurvisity as appropriation of generic resources, Bhatia (2010) notes that expert
professional writers constantly operate within and across generic boundaries. The result of this has seen the
emergence of new, but essentially related forms as well as and/or hybrid (both mixed and embedded) forms. This has
thus enabled them to give expression to certain private intentions while at the same time using conventionally
acceptable communicative practices and shared generic forms
The main purpose of corporate report is to inform their shareholders about the performance of the company,
including its successes and failures. However, they seem to be changing in their function from ‘informing and
reporting’ to increasingly ‘promoting’ the companies by underplaying corporate weaknesses (Bhatia 2010).
This paper examines how companies exploit the use of linguistic and generic resources in company annual reports to
achieve their private intention and to promote their companies. It analyses a corpus of six million Chinese characters
company annual reports in Chinese of 15 corporations in Hong Kong. It also compares cultural reflexivity between
Chinese culture and Western culture on the discourses strategies for promoting the company’s images. The results
indicate that by using discourse strategies, company annual reports present a positive slant when interpreting or
explaining company performance or prospects with the view to making these appear more acceptable.

Pespectivation in cross-cultural media discourses
Wu, Qiong
China
Based on Graumann’s concept of perspectivity, we replenish the concept by drawing insights from philosophy, social
science and more recent developments in social psychology, emphasizing its inherent properties: a perspectiveis
relational, being oriented towards other subjects and objects; relative, being one perspective amongst others; social,
being against a social context and discursive, being implicated in discourses. Such a conception allows for the analysis
of the encounters between different points of view based on divergent backgrounds of social representations. In this
sense, perspective can accommodate a cross-cultural analytic framework where how the same event is represented
in different media can be compared and contrasted and as a consequence reveal how the same event is socially and
culturally mediated to turn out totally different images for the audience.
Three types of perspectives were then identified in the course of the study, similar to Sammut’s categories (2009).
For the purposes of this inquiry, we define the first type perspective as monological, corresponding to personal
perspectives; the second type as dialogical, corresponding to interpersonal perspectives; and the third type as
metalogical, corresponding to comprehensive/broad perspectives. The three layers of perspectivation demonstrate a
systematization of the interconnectedness of micro/meso/macro level of analysis. The methodologies proposed for
explicating each type of perspective is an attempt to put together the varied linguistic theories for a more valid
analysis of the data. The analytic framework thus established can bring to light the general structure of
perspectivation in discourse representation. The network design and interconnectedness of various levels of analysis
affords rich linguistic resources for unraveling a mystic picture of perspective-grounding in media constructions of the
same social events in different cultural contexts.
Based on the analytic framework outlined, an empirical study is conducted to show how the same social event is
perspectivised and mediated across cultures. Through the empirical study, we show how the reporting of suffering in
different cultures is influenced by their respective perspectival strategies at monological, dialogical and metalogical
levels and how those strategies open up public spaces for manipulation of power and appropriation of cultural codes.
We also show that a comparative perspective on the discursive practices and strategies with which participants
construct culturally specific media discourse can enrich a ‘phenomenology of media language’ that provides a way
for us to investigate the connection between language, media and the world.

Discourse, Memory and Immigration
Xia, Cuijun
Zhejiang University
China
Racism and anti-immigration discourse has been to some extent normalized and “democratized” in European and
national discourse. Chinese immigrants in Europe as an “imagined community” are frequently in potential or real
antagonistic relations with so called “mainstream society”. The condition sharply worsens whenever economic,
financial or other crises occur. Most of the researches on Chinese immigrants focus either on how they struggle in
multicultural receiving countries or on how they influence the development of their homeland. Their pasts and
memories, their homelands and the stories related to their places, which is essential for Chinese peers and foreigners
to understand this group of people, are largely neglected.
In my ethnographic research, I choose to focus on a small mountainous village in Qingtian, a famous homeland of
overseas Chinese in Zhejiang Province. Ninety percent of the population of the village is of Wu Clan and two thirds
are abroad with overwhelming majority in Europe. The generations of Wu Clan have witnessed those important
historical periods which are specifically significant for homelands of overseas Chinese: The Civil War, The Building of
the people’s Republic of China, The Cultural Revolution, The Reform and Opening up and recent European Financial
Crisis within the context of China’ rise. The corresponding historical pasts of the Wu Clan has been represented and
reconstructed through individual and collective memory and its nowadays condition and status presented through
participant observation. Using Critical Discourse Analysis and narrative, the article analyzes how “history” as a kind of
discourse is constructed and brings people holistic views of Chinese immigrants thus promote better understanding

More Similarity, Less Difference
Xia, Wenxu
Hangzhou Normal University
China
The multicultural issues, if not carefully dealt with, can easily lead to world troubles such as wars and ethnic disputes.
The initial end of multicultural discouse is to assist different cultures to understand each other better. Putting much
more emphasis on cultural difference than similarity, current multicultal discourses apprently works less effectively.
Dispalying cultural variance may remind people to appreciate different culture’s merits and advantages, but also
could arouse the desire of competition. The world has stuck in such dilemma: ideology rivalrousness is more
appealing than universal values such as love and peace. Nevertheless, it is ridiculous to judge a culture is super or
inferior since every cultral entity enjoy its uniqueness. Thus, a way to promote understanding and harmonious
coexistence of different cultures is trying to find the similarity in them. Communication do not necessarily depend on
language because people still have emotions and perceptions. The body language smile and the freindship it
communicates are shared by all the human beings live in the planet. Another example is art and literature, the ways
of expression might vary, but the values and beauty they reveal are equally powerful to a Chinese soul or an
American mind. The suggestion is, during a multicultural discouse, the first thing is to set a goal, as to how to reach it,
that is where cultural entities show their difference. And what has to bear in mind is to stick to the goal but not the
ways to get to it.

Mo Yan: Criticism Within the Chinese Regime?
Xiong, Bingjuan
University of Colorado
USA
Should everyone become a political activist to engage with Chinese social problems so as to “save” China? Is there
only one way to critically engage with the “Chinese reality?” And what is criticism in China anyway? When keywords
like criticism and China are linked together, our attention is quickly drawn to Chinese dissidents (such as Ai Weiwei,
Gao Xinjian and Liu Yiwu) as often represented in the mainstream Western media. Their “open criticism” of the
Chinese government gradually becomes the normative expectation of every Chinese intellectual who is actively
dealing with the Chinese regime. With this limited understanding of practicing criticism in China, a heated
controversy erupted on the Internet over Chinese writer Mo Yan’s Nobel Prize winning in 2012. Among all the issues
in this controversy, the most interesting discussion concerns this Literature Laurel’s ability to practice criticism within
the Chinese regime. This paper focuses on this particular case to explicate the rhetorical processes of doing criticism
in the Chinese context. Using data from news reports, blogs and public interviews about this controversy, as well as
Mo Yan’s novel Paw!, the author identifies three different threads of arguments embedded in this controversy, and
explicates how Mo Yan has been artfully practicing a form of criticism that is rooted in individual experiences and
truth-telling by drawing upon John Dewey’s “artful criticism” and Foucault’s “parrhesia.” Moreover, the author
contends that it is crucial to recognize pluralistic forms of critical engagement with the regime, both inside and
outside of the system; and that it is essentially problematic to apply the Western interpretations and practices of
criticism (rooted in democracy and freedom of speech) to the context of contemporary China.

Semiotics on Display: Identities and Semiotic Landscape of Shanghai
Xu, Jiayan & Li, Songqing
Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University
China
Linguistic landscapes (LL) nowadays are more often than not the consequence of a material construction that
requires a wide variety of resources restricted not to languages only. Researchers agree that linguistic landscapes are
not simply physical public spaces but are instead subjective representations for communication (e.g. Lado 2011;
Leeman & Modan 2009; Lou 2012; see the collection in Shohamy & Gorter 2008). Attention of LL researchers has
been brought to how semiotic resources including language, visual images, architecture and the built environment
are used as sign, resource and practice in the public space for the construction and representation of a place.
The purpose of this study is to examine the semiotic landscape of Shanghai and its role in constructing multiple
facets of this city, presumably being a window of China to foreign visitors, a most modern city of China to domestic
visitors, and a dynamic community to local residents. The study meanwhile aims to discuss if target audience is the
determinant factor in the practice of semiotic landscape on display in different places. To this end, a contextualized,
spatialized and identity-oriented approach to semiotic landscape will be developed. Data will be collected from three

On March 16, 2012, a group of 188 Senators and Members of Congress have sent a letter to President Obama to
encourage him to take action against China’s auto parts for protecting U.S. production and jobs. Based on this letter
employing Normal Fairclough's three-dimensional model of CDA and incorporating the idea of Halliday's
metafunctional grammar as the theoretical framework, this paper tends to make a critical discourse analysis and
reveal the hidden political purpose and ideology in the letter. Besides, the relations between discourse, ideology and

Capital, power, and discourse strategies: A critical analysis of badminton match throwing in
2012 London Olympic Games
You, Zeshun
Fujian Normal University
China
The badminton match throwing scandal in 2012 London Olympic Games has triggered a discourse struggle between
International Olympic Committee (IOC), World Badminton Federation (WBF), National Olympic Committees (NOC),
coaches, athletes, and spectators. It ends up with the disqualification of four pairs of women’s doubles from the
badminton final competition. The article, by integrating Bourdieu’s “field” and “capital” into Fairclough’s
dialectical-relational approach, analyzes the embedded power relations between actors in the field, the discourse
strategies they use, and the results of the discourse struggle so as to show: 1) what the field of “Olympic Games” is
like; 2) how each actor’s capital helps construct its position and power in the field; 3) what discourse strategies are
used by each actor to manipulate power; 4) how the actor’s capital influences its power struggle; 5) why different
actor chooses different strategies and what social consequences it brings about. The data consists of articles from
four UK media: Guardian, Sun, Independent, and BBC, retrieved with such key words as “badminton”, “women’s
double” and “London Olympic”. The textual analysis is not a thorough content analysis by one which focuses on only
the discourse of the actors presented in those articles.

The discursive construction of national identities of Japan and China: A critical discourse
analysis on the news headlines of Japanese Newspapers
Yuan, Yuan (袁园)

Informed by critical discourse analysis, this study investigates how ideology and national identities are discursively
constructed and reproduced in news discourse. Based on qualitative and quantitative analysis of a corpus of 192
Japanese news headlines related to sovereignty issue of Diaoyu Island, collected between March 1 and March 31
from the three representative Japanese newspapers: Asahi Shimbun, Sankei Shimbun and Yomiuri Shimbun, this
study reveals two main national identities which discursively constructed in the news discourse: (a) China as
uncivilized invader; (b) Japan as modest, calm and strong victim. The results demonstrate that although the
newspapers claim objectivity in news reporting, these three newspapers adhere to official narratives and purposely
represent the Japanese government’s’ ideology on the East China Sea incident issue.

Voices of Streets vs. Silence of Mainstream Media: Discursive Analysis of Gezi Park
Demonstrations
Zeybek, Gökçe
Hacettepe Üniversitesi
Turkey
Turkey witnessed an extraordinary resistance movement in the last days of May and first days of June 2013 in Turkey.
The motto of this movement was “it was all started with a tree, but this is not about a tree”. Actually it was all started
by a group of approximately 50 people called “Taksim Platformu” aiming to prevent Gezi Park in Taksim Square,
İstanbul from becoming a shopping mall. This group was resisted revelling of trees in Gezi Park. But the police
respond to the mass with tear gas, gas bombs and water cannons. This police violence provoked many people to hit
the streets and this small group was getting grown every passing second and this resistance movement spread all
over Turkey. In many cities and even different districts of big cities anti-government mass demonstrations were
occurred with the participation of thousands of people from different age, beliefs, ethnicity, gender and ideologies.
None of these events were organized by a political party or social organization. These heterogeneous people were
opposed to the unjust, undemocratic rule of government (AKP), especially Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan who
said “no matter what you do, we gave our final decision”. They all together shouted out that “it’s about not being
heard, the abuse of state power, media being censored, minorities not being protected; this is about democracy”.
At the beginning of the movement, PM Erdoğan tried to underestimate magnitude and diversity of the mass, to link it
with main opposition party (CHP) and marginal, even terrorist groups. He persistently did not understand
anti-government feature of these riots. During the whole process, especially on the first days of the resistance,
Turkish media, except few channel and press, ignored events happening in Gezi Park and preferred not to report and
publish police violence. They shared the monist discourse of PM Erdoğan. That’s why Turkish protestors used social
media to gather around, to expose police violence, to seek attention of foreign media, and to express themselves
freely. In other words, in spite of the monist discourse of mainstream media, social media enabled multiple
discourses. Protestors who are called by Erdoğan as “çapulcu”, means marauder, deconstruct monist discourse of the
puissance. For instance, they adopt the word “çapulcu” and transform its negative meaning to the positive. As John
Lennon said “the only thing the power doesn’t know how to handle is non-violence and humor”, protestors used
humor to reveal leaks of this monist discourse and to reverse them. This process demonstrate once more that
“power is everywhere but resistance is also present wherever power is present” as Foucault stated.
This paper aims to look discursively at the struggle between current ruling party (AKP) and the Gezi Park’s protestors.
In order to crystallize the discursive difference between hegemonic discourses represented by the mainstream media
and multiple discourses in the social media, I utilize critical discourse analysis (CDA) to the news stories covering the
Gezi Park Demonstrations and to the banners, posters, slogans, grafitis and also tweets, facebook messages relating
to demonstrations by focusing riots in Ankara.

Metaphorical Discourse in the Works of W.E.B Du Bois
Zhang, Jingjing (张静静)
Zhejiang University
China
The Negro, as W.E.B Du Bois wrote in The Souls of Black Folk, “is born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this
American world”. Gifted with double consciousness, African Americans are metaphorical masters like “the signifying
monkey” whose culture and discourse are constructed by senseful metaphors. Metaphor which has been so
accustomed to social life for African Americans is the soul and spirit of literature beyond doubt. Some of the
metaphors have been acknowledged collectively in African American literature such as “mule” and “swamp”. Du
Bois’s most famous metaphor is “the veil” which separates the black from the white in The Souls of Black Folk.His
metaphorical discourse exists not only in his non-fictional writings but also fictional writings such as “swamp” and
“silver fleece” in his The Quest of the Silver Fleece. As a well-read scholar who is keen on philosophy, history and
literature, he is familiar with lots of historical anecdotes, ancient Greek Myths, the Bible as well as black folklores,
and could use them aptly in his own writing with the wisdom of metaphor. To have a well-founded interpretation of
Du Bois’s enigmatic metaphorical discourse is to have a better understanding of the “propaganda” he tries to convey
in art.

A Discourse Analysis of Business Negotiations
Zhang, Ting (张婷)
Shanghai International Studies University
China
Business negotiations play an important role in international transactions. A large part of research in China has gone
into the study of negotiation tactics or cross-cultural problems in negotiation activities. Fewer papers have taken
business negotiations as the subject of discourse analysis. Since a business negotiation can be regarded from
theoretical and practical point of view as a good example of verbal interaction and a specific social activity in which
the participants are engaging, it can certainly be explored within the field of discourse analysis, which focuses on the
language used in the situation network. A business negotiation is a process of achieving mutual goals by negotiating
parties. It is a strategic interaction in which each party modifies its own goals and coordinates them with the
modified goals of the other party. The structural organization of the discourse of a business negotiation is usually
topic-oriented. The social interaction of a business negotiation can be described as an ordered sequence of thematic
episodes linguistically realized by topic-oriented discourse transactions. Based on the available role-play data of
business negotiations, the article intends, by mainly making use of Halliday’s systematic-functional approach to
discourse analysis, to discuss the discourse structure of a negotiation, the choice of language patterns during a
negotiation, and the language strategies used by the participants of a negotiation.

We locate our analysis in the political, social-economic, and technological context in China as well as global feminist
activism. Our findings suggest that social media participation in gender media events in China has the potential of
enlarging attention to local events and actions regarding sex and gender, mobilizing symbolic resources for the

western-oriented notions, analytical framework and ideology.
In this paper, the author adopts a three-dimensional analytical framework combining the methods in areas of
discourse analysis, ethnography fieldwork and historical textual interpretation in exploring the place-making process
ofGu Pan Chi. By tracing its historical source of meaning and analyzing social functioning of discourses in various

Science popularization or colonization?: A study of the structure of online science news
Zhang, Yiqiong
Guangdong University of Foreign Studies
China
As digital technologies rapidly evolve, they change how information is presented, transmitted and shared, and
concomitantly the discourse in use. Digital media are having a pervasive impact on science news as a type of
popularization with regards to representational practices and information accessibility. Institutions can now bypass
the mass media and communicate directly with public to address their growing publicity demands.
This study adopted a genre approach to examine the structure of the verbal story of online science news. 270 pieces
of news from institutional and mass media websites was analyzed. It is found that the structure of research articles
(Introduction, Methodology, Results, and Discussion) has been recontextualized explicitly in online science news to
develop the news lead. The recontextualization of the structure of research articles suggests that the power of
academic discourse is permeated into popularization in the digital age when institutions starting to popularize
science on its own. I shall argue in my presentation that science news has moved beyond popularization into
colonization.

Discourse and Culture in University English Classes
Zhou, Xiaozhou
Shanghai International Studies University
China
Discourse and culture are closely interrelated in the way that cultural connotations are embedded in discourse whilst
discourse reflects the cultural background and identity of the narrators.
This in-depth case study aims to investigate the relationship between teachers' language use in class and the
cultural connotations that the classroom discourse denotes, as well as to what extent the classroom discourse
reflects teachers' cultural identities.
The longitudinal case study focuses on two experienced teachers at the English Department in a leading Chinese
university. Three data collection methods are used: lesson recordings, interviews and stimulated recalls. Recordings
of the lessons are transcribed and subjected to micro analysis, whereas narratives collected during interviews and
stimulated recalls are analysed thematically.
The findings show that teachers' alternate use of languages (English and Chinese), known as codeswitching, is a
methodical and pedagogical strategy to provide English majors with knowledge of Chinese literature, culture and
philosophy, because in their view such knowledge is missing from the current curriculum. More importantly, teachers
deliberately use a cross-cultural teaching method to establish a comparative framework for students, and their
classroom discourse to a large extent reflects their cultural identities as Chinese nationals. They choose to employ
Chinese in a class which is supposed to be taught in English to demonstrate their cross-cultural teaching strategies
and their purpose of raising students' awareness of their own cultural
identities when facing foreign culture.
The findings of this study can be closely related to the development of English Language and Literature as a discipline
in China. The English Departments at Chinese universities have undergone different stages of development in history:
from the humanities orientation during the early 20th century, to the shift of focus towards pure language skills
training in the 1950s and 60s, now back to a proposed humanistic approach. Therefore this study has not only
explored the relationship between discourse and culture in classroom but has also indicated that teaching
cross-culturally and comparatively as well as inputting knowledge from the Chinese perspective might be considered
as beneficial in the process of the reform of English Language and Literature as a discipline.

This study aims to explore the cultural identity of Chinese related to their self-perception, their perception of Malays
and their business communication with the Malays in Bangka Island, emphasizing the Chinese intercultural
communication competence in terms of their self presentation in bussiness relationship with the Malays.
The study employed an interpretive approach, more specifically the phenomenological and dramaturgical tradition.
The researchers focused on the intercultural communication competence as experienced by the 25 Chinese and
and complemented by five Malays as additional subjects of research. The study used in-depth interviews as the main
method with some observation of the Chinese communication with the Malays.
The study found that the Chinese of Bangka perceived themselves as open and are willing to mingle with the Malays.
They are hospitable, hardworking, tenacious, frugal, and fond of maintaining long-term relationships. In contrast, in
the Chinese view, the Malays are open, willing to mingle with others, obedient to the teachings of Islam, but they are
keen on being flattered, consumptive, and easily seduced. In the opinion of the Malays, the Chinese justify the
means to achieve their business ends; they even bribe others.
In terms of their intercultural communication competence, the Chinese are skillful in their self presentation by
employing various verbal and nonverbal tactics, including facework, to adjust themselves to the interpersonal,
group and business situations they encounter in their everyday lives.
Key words: Chinese, Malays, Bangka, self-perception, intercultural communication competence, tactics of

Intercultural Communications is a multidiscipline field drawing on such academic disciplines as Anthropology,
Sociology, Psychology, Communications, and increasingly, Linguistics. As such, IC research employs multiple
methodologies to advance its field. If we take culture as a system of shared meanings, then discourse analysis, with
its focus on the contextualized meanings of cultural events, should afford us new insights into the cultural
component of communications. This panel presents five disparate studies of twenty-first century discourses. All of
them take there text from the realm of popular culture in mainland China. The first one explores the discourses of
genders in the American romantic comedy film, “He's just not that into you,” popular in China. Two of the
presentations take their text from the Chinese Internet. Panel 2 looks at an “Internet group event” that grew out of
an inter-ethnic event commonly referred to as 'qiegao', a nut-cake confection at the heart of the event, and panel 3
explores the discourse of a successful online cosmetics company that has added to the mainland vernacular. A
comparative analysis of Chinese advertisements – both commercial and public service – by panel 4 explores this form
of contemporary Chinese communications. The final panel takes a more critical look at a popular media event, the
public apology of a Hong Kong celebrity in the wake of scandal. Taken together, the panel demonstrates the value of

based on the contexts of different gender discourse system by using Paul Gee’s analysis frames, namely “The doing
and not just saying tool” “The why this way and not that way tool” “Identities building tool” “Relationships building
tool” “The fill-in tool” “The making strange tool”, “the big "D"discourse tool ” , “Situated meaning tool” and “Figured

With the development of endless social networks and software, many groups tend to express their opinions on the
Internet. As a new buzzword nowadays, “network group event”, refers to events happened or rapidly circulating on
the Internet, seemingly trivial at first sight, yet catch much attention and get many interest groups involved.
Compared with other group events, network events are much more widely involved with groups such as government,
grassroots, ethnic minorities or foreign groups so that what people see is often the lively discussion and
argumentation while truth is far from approachable. Discourse analysis is a method to help researchers to figure out
each party’s stance, and offer proposals concerning what shall be done to handle such explosive and sometimes
destructive network group events. This research takes the famous “Xinjiang nuts-cake (qiegao) event” happened in
2012 December as an example to show how different tools are used to analyze various stands of and the relations
among grassroots, government and ethnic minorities. For example, with the “fill-in tool” and “making it strange tool”,
the background information and a new perspective appear; with the “connections building tool” and “Discourse tool”,
a holistic view of the relations among distinct groups becomes clearer, more understandable and so on. Based on
discourse analysis of this event, suggestions will be made on how to guide public opinions in a positive way and at
the same time on supervising the government and educating the mass.

tries to interpret and analyze the lines and images in the advertisement so as to carry out an in-depth discussion on
the popularity of the Chen-Ou style and its social implications. By presenting the deconstruction of power and the
construction of youth identity, this advertisement successfully associates Jumei’s company identity with
self-awareness and self-realization of the current post-80 youths. Furthermore, apart from the quick success of the
advertisement, its lines are also developed into an expression format called Chen-Ou Style, which is used to reveal
the post-80’s confidence and uneasiness, their courage and cowardice in a self-mocking and entertaining way when
their dream meets reality. Besides, the way Chen-Ou Style circulates and then evolves illustrates how messages and

Edison Chen has the respect for those female stars involved in the scandal.
Based on his speech, we can deduce that what he was really trying to say----that “I am a
responsible person who is misunderstood to a great extent by all of you.” Using the identity tool,
we are capable of constructing “another Edison” who has a far cry from the real one.
Stanza tool is also used in this analysis. There are seven stanzas in his speech, namely the
explanation of his whereabouts, the source of the photos and how they got published online, his
apology, failure of being a model for the Hong Kong entertainment industry, cooperation with
the police and his apology. And the vocabulary tool is also used, according to which two kinds of
words are categorized. He deliberately chose to use words originated from Latin to show his
sincere attitude towards this speech.
In the last part of his speech, Edison referred to his lawyer’s words to switch the voice of this
press conference. After that announcement, he concluded his speech by expressing official
thanks to the journalists. Also, since he was born in a different family background where he was
affected mainly by western culture, his figured world was different from us, thus making him
believe that the stealing photos from the computer was even worse than taking them. But he
also recognized his faults and wanted to do some charity for the society.
Using Gee’s tools, we may find some interesting points of other’s discourse that we used to
ignore.
