In a global landscape, the representational practices through which inequalities gain meaning are central- both within and across national boundaries. The collection de-centers North American/European paradigms by placing scholarship from countries around the globe on equal footing.
Readers will find a variety of analytical styles including frame analysis, semiotics, poststructural discourse analysis, critical discourse studies, and conversation analysis. Each chapter provides an overview of relevant cultural and historical contexts for an international audience as well as a brief introduction to relevant methodological and theoretical frameworks.
