explain you about branch discourse analysis. I choose branch discourse analysis
consist of 2 critical discourse analisis and geographic so enjoy for read my
blog
Critial discourse analisis
For the expert ,Ruth
wodak she said for definition about critical discourse analisis is analyses
what makes critical discourse analysis "critical", distinguishes
criticalness from dogmatism, but expounds upon the relationship between
critique and norms. Finally, she discusses how "integrative
indisciplinarity" might help us with problems of disciplinary
incommensurability.
"Critical"
means not taking things for granted, opening up complexity, challenging
reductionism, dogmatism and dichotomies, being self-reflective in my research,
and through these processes, making opaque structures of power relations and
ideologies manifest. "Critical", thus, does not imply the common
sense meaning of "being negative"—rather "skeptical".
One
of the most important developments in CDA is a new focus on identity politics
("transition and social change"), language policies, and on
integrating macro social theories with linguistic analysis. Moreover, the
analysis of new genres (visual, Internet, film, chat rooms, SMS, and so forth;
"multimodality"). Basically, the following approaches/trends can be
distinguished which I have summarised extensively in my chapter in SEALE,
GIAMPETRO, GUBRIUM and SILVERMAN, 2004 (however, all typologies do not really
fit; totally different classification would emerge
So about the ruth wodak explanation i get the conclusion
what is the critical discourse analisis, Critical discourse analisis is about
the interdisciplinarity,methodologi,transition and social change to make be better life and the process
chalengging making opaque structures of power relations and ideologies
manifest.
About Ruth WODAK
Ruth WODAK has held a personal chair
in Discourse Studies at Lancaster University since September 2004. She moved
from Vienna, Austria, where she had been full professor of Applied Linguistics
since 1991. She has remained co-director of the Austrian National Focal Point
(NFP) of the European Monitoring Centre for Racism, Xenophobia and
Anti-Semitism.
In addition to various other prizes,
she was awarded the Wittgenstein Prize for Elite Researchers in 1996, which
made six years of continuous interdisciplinary team research possible. The main
projects focussed on "Discourses on Un/employment in EU
Organisations"; "Debates on NATO and Neutrality in Austria and
Hungary"; "The Discursive Construction of European Identities";
"Attitudes towards EU-Enlargement; Racism at the Top";
"Parliamentary Debates on Immigration in six EU countries"; and
"The Discursive Construction of the Past—Individual and Collective
Memories of the German Wehrmacht and the
Second World War". In October 2006 she was awarded the Woman's Prize of
the City of Vienna.
Her research is mainly located in
Discourse Studies and in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). Together with her
colleagues and Ph.D students in Vienna (Rudolf DE CILLIA, Gertraud BENKE,
Helmut GRUBER, Florian MENZ, Martin REISIGL, Usama SULEIMAN, Christine
ANTHONISSEN), she elaborated the "Discourse-Historical Approach in
CDA" which is interdisciplinary, problem-oriented, and analyses changes in
discursive practices over time and in various genres.
Ruth's research agenda focuses on the
development of theoretical approaches in discourse studies (combining
ethnography, argumentation theory, rhetoric and functional systemic
linguistics); gender studies; language and/in politics; prejudice and
discrimination.
She is a member of the editorial
board of a range of linguistic journals, co-editor of the journal Discourse and Society and editor of Critical Discourse Studies (together with Norman
FAIRCLOUGH, Phil GRAHAM and Jay LEMKE) and of the Journal
of Language and Politics (together with Paul CHILTON). Together with
Greg MYERS, also at Lancaster University, she edits the book series DAPSAC
(Benjamins). She was also section editor of "Language and Politics"
for the Second Edition of the Elsevier Encyclopedia
of Language and Linguistics. She is chair of the Humanities and Social
Sciences Panel for the EURYI award, in the European Science Foundation.

Regional
Geographic
According
by paul claval Geography is described as the study of places and the
relationships between people and their environments. Also, geography seeks
to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they
develop and change over time. Whereas cartography is defined as the
art and science of graphically representing a geographical area (on a map or chart) and it
may involve the superimposition of political, cultural, or other non
geographical divisions into the representation of a geographical area.
The two elements
seem to be linked and complementary even if they can work alone, without taking
the other in count. But because geographers deal with points or lines, they
also need precise areal data in order to examine and describe how human culture interacts with the natural
environment, and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people.
That’s why cartography is useful to geographers because it gives them a
vertical vision and a synthetic image of various data thanks to their map and
all the informations they include.
So by i to
understanding about regional geographic is the study of places and the
relationships between people and their environments. Also, geography seeks
to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they
develop and change over time. And then geographic process addapted society
for the comunnicaton and relationship for the human
