Description

The aim of this special issue is to bring together work that advances the post-structuralist discourse-theoretical tradition as a framework for the study of political practice within and beyond the field of politics.
It focuses on work inspired by the Essex school of discourse theory (DT) but takes an explicitly open approach to this and sees the interdisciplinary dialogue between DT and different strands of discourse studies and other approaches to power and ideology across disciplines as a precondition for the strengthening of DT as a sharp and useful discursive framework for the study of contemporary political practices in the broad sense. The special issue brings together articles that, through the interdisciplinary confrontation of DT with other approaches and methods, highlight and further develop DT’s strength as a framework for the study of real-world politics, within and beyond the political field.
