Written by historian and intelligence expert Rhodri Jeffreys-Jones, it is the first full overview of its kind. Delving into the roles of credit agencies, private detectives, and phone-hacking journalists as well as agencies like the FBI and NSA in the USA and GCHQ and MI5 in the UK, Jeffreys-Jones highlights malpractices such as the blacklist and illegal electronic interceptions. He demonstrates that several presidents -- Franklin D. Roosevelt, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard M. Nixon -- conducted various forms of political surveillance, and also how British agencies have been under a constant cloud of suspicion for similar reasons. Continuing with an account of the 1970s' leaks that revealed how the FBI and CIA kept tabs on anti-Vietnam War protestors, he assesses the reform impulse of this era -- an impulse that began in America and only gradually spread to Britain. The end of the Cold War further at the end of the 1980s then undermined confidence in the need for state surveillance still further, but it was to return with a vengeance after 9/11. What emerges is a story in which governments habitually abuse their surveillance powers once granted, demonstrating the need for proper controls in this area. But, as Jeffreys-Jones makes clear, this is not simply a story of the Orwellian state. While private sector firms have sometimes acted as a brake on surveillance by the state (particularly in the electronic era), they have also often engaged in dubious surveillance practices of their own. Oversight and regulation, he argues, therefore need to be universal and not simply concentrate on the threat to the individual posed by the agencies of government.Electronic surveillanceSocial aspectsGreat BritainfastUnited StatesfastGrossbritanniengndUSAgndHistory.fastElectronic surveillanceSocial aspects.303.483Jeffreys-Jones Rhodri983147MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910164932203321We know all about you2737020UNINA03138oam 2200673I 450 991078363800332120230421043245.01-134-91892-51-134-91893-31-280-32536-40-203-20006-310.4324/9780203200063 (CKB)1000000000247594(EBL)180001(OCoLC)318565068(SSID)ssj0000099201(PQKBManifestationID)11113479(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000099201(PQKBWorkID)10009742(PQKB)10037188(MiAaPQ)EBC180001(OCoLC)252787602(EXLCZ)99100000000024759420180331d1992 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAdvances in spoken discourse analysis /edited by Malcolm CoulthardLondon ;New York :Routledge,1992.1 online resource (273 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-138-17378-9 0-415-06687-5 Includes bibliographical references (pages [259]-266).Cover; Advances in Spoken Discourse Analysis; Copyright; Contents; Preface; About the authors; 1 Towards an analysis of discourse; 2 The significance of intonation in discourse; 3 Exchange structure; 4 Priorities in discourse analysis; 5 A functional description of questions; 6 Caught in the act: using the rank scale to address problems of delicacy; 7 Analysing everyday conversation; 8 Inner and outer: spoken discourse in the language classroom; 9 Intonation and feedback in the EFL classroom; 10 Interactive lexis: prominence and paradigms; 11 Listening to people reading12 Forensic discourse analysisBibliographyThis collection reviews 20 years of research into Spoken Discourse by the Birmingham group, allowing, for the first time, a developmental perspective. It combines previously published but unavailable work with new research. Bringing together recent theories of discourse structure, with a new and detailed analytic framework, the book emphasises both historical context and new developments. The articles are comprehensive, ranging from the theoretical to the highly applied. Practical applications include language teaching, literary stylistics and forensic linguistics with examples taken from liteDiscourse analysisDiscourse analysisDiscourse analysisLanguages & LiteraturesHILCCPhilology & LinguisticsHILCCDiscourse analysis.Discourse analysis.Discourse analysisLanguages & LiteraturesPhilology & Linguistics401/.41415Coulthard Malcolm192549AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910783638003321Advances in Spoken Discourse Analysis211520UNINA
