Conclusion -- Notes -- References -- Name index -- Subject index -- The series Discourse Approaches to Politics, Society and Culture. 330 $aThis volume brings together a number of wide-ranging, transdisciplinary research articles on the interface between discourse studies and economics. It explores in what way economics can contribute to the analysis of discursive practices in various institutional settings as well as investigating what role discourse studies can play in economic research. The contributors are linguists, communication scholars, economists and other social scientists drawing on various traditions including Critical Discourse Analysis, Cognitive Linguistics, ethnography and the literature on the rhetoric of economics and on economic storytelling. All articles are essentially empirical, focusing on the details of actual language use. The type of data analysed ranges from the minutes of university policy meetings and large-scale corpora of newspaper language, over books of economic theory from both well-respected economists and monetary cranks, to cartoons from The Economist. 410 0$aDiscourse approaches to politics, society, and culture ;$vv. 16. 606 $aEconomics$xLanguage 606 $aDiscourse analysis 615 0$aEconomics$xLanguage. 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 676 $a330.01/4 701 $aErreygers$b Guido$f1959-$0908578 701 $aJacobs$b Geert$0254314 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817019203321 996 $aLanguage, communication, and the economy$93994020 997 $aUNINA
