Critical Discourse Analysis Social communication is increasingly becoming a subject of scientists’ discussions from different disciplines‚ as well as ordinary language users. In contemporary social sciences‚ especially in linguistics‚ we see a clear shift to discourse.

CDA intends to use social-theoretical method in discourse analysis and is primarily linguistically based (Blommaet &ump; Bulcaen‚ 2000‚ p.447). It intends to analyze the structural relationships of dominance‚ discrimination‚ power and control through a textual study (Blommaet &ump; Bulcaen‚ 2000‚ p.448).

1. Berger says that "Discourse analysis... focuses attention not only on the content of written material but on the style that writers use‚ the language they use to express themselves‚ and the strategies they adopt to get their ideas across. The focus‚ we may say‚ is on the ’how’ not the ’what’" (p. 174). Explain the difference between the "how" and the "what." Instead of concentrating on the content they concentrate on the style of the content. When reading a review of a movie‚ we are still reading
