Discourse Analysis Network

The Discourse Analysis Network covers a series of seminars, master classes and exploratory workshops intended to establish connections between scholars conducting discourse analysis in different social science disciplines. The primary aim of the network is to synthesise methodological expertise and to encourage methodological innovation arising from this process of interaction across epistemological and disciplinary backgrounds, drawing on work in post-structuralist discourse theory, interpretative policy analysis, Q-methodology, critical discourse analysis and discursive psychology. It specifically seeks to investigate two substantive questions, namely processes involved in the identification and delimitation of specific discourses; and also an exploration of the range of techniques available for the analysis of discourses.
