多元视角:传播研究的话语分析路径

Multi-perspective Approach:Discourse Analysis in Communication Research

话语分析,尤其是非语言学的话语分析,至今尚处在探索发展过程中。几十年来传播学研究领域没有重大的突破,而美国的传播学研究的工具化取向越来越为人诟病。作为一种新兴的研究路径和方法,话语分析为传播研究开拓了广阔的空间和多元的视角,无疑能为传播学研究带来新的发展动力。话语分析的方法论意义是什么?话语分析方法对传播学研究的价值在哪里?话语分析方法如何在传播学研究中运用?本文将围绕这些问题讨论传播研究的话语分析。

Discourse analysis, especially non-linguistic discourse analysis, is still in the process of development. Communication research has not had much achievement since the middle part of the last century, and more and more scholars have criticized the functionalist orientation of American communication research. On other hand, discourse analysis, as a new approach or method, may offer a multi-perspective view and vigor for communication research. This paper discusses the issue of how to take discourse analysis in communication research.
