The first was the ＂revolutionary discourse＂ that dominated the era of the planned economy. During this period, knowledge about women＇s employment was heavily influenced by revolutionary discourse, and women were mobilized to take up positions in virtually all areas of social life. The second occurred in the transition from a planned to a market economy. During this process, knowledge of women＇s employment was constructed by a so-called ＂quality discourse,＂ which depressed women＇s wages in the course of driving them back into the home. The third important mode of discourse took place in the era of marketization, and saw knowledge about women＇s employment constructed by male-centered hegemonic discourse in an organic union between the market economy and the patriarchal system. Meanwhile, female subjectivity in regard to knowledge about women＇s employment is taking shape. At the same time, women＇s sense of autonomy in relation to understanding of employment has started to grow and exhibits self-awareness and use of the discourse of human rights.展开更多

The crisis of American journalism is articulated through a narrative of decline that warns that the future of journalism will be worse than the past. Through discourse analysis of the introduction of new technologies and a new news anchor in journalism, this study shows that the dis- course of crisis and grave doubts about the future of professional journalism are not new. Today and in previous eras, the past seems to represent the high mark of professional journalism in the USA, and the future of the news seems exceptionally uncertain. These perennial claims of the decline of journalism serve to reinforce the sacred ideals and standards of journalism.展开更多
