Description

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the concept of DISCOURSE in N. Fairclough's analytical framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) from a viewpoint of Articulation Theory. The theory originated from the tradition of Cultural Studies, offering CDA scholars rich resources of thought through which we could enlarge the scope of the object we deal with when engaged in a study of CDA. This study leads to the conclusion that if we quote useful ideas of sociology in which many scholars have devoted to the consideration of social events in terms of power relations, more attention should be drawn to discussions in the disciplines of sociology and philosophy as well as in the disciplines categorized as linguistics, sociolinguistics, text linguistics.
