CADAAD Journal welcomes approaches to critical discourse research within the humanities, social sciences and beyond. The journal therefore welcomes papers from Critical Discourse Studies and other ‘critical’ strands, for example:

  • Communication Studies
  • Applied Linguistics & Pragmatics
  • Media Studies
  • Education Studies
  • Social Cognition and -Psychology
  • Social and Political Sciences
  • Organisational Studies
  • Ecological/environmental discourse studies
  • … and studies of discourses in other disciplines

We publish papers that investigate, from a ‘critical’ perspective, historic and contemporary discourses and genres in social, political, public and professional communication.  In this context, we are especially interested in publishing papers which highlight, develop and apply new theoretical and methodological approaches for critical discourse research, or which evaluate established methods and assumptions.

We are particularly keen to publish papers informed by contemporary developments in Linguistics and Communication Studies, incl. approaches in Pragmatics, Argumentation, Cognitive Linguistics, Systemic-functional linguistics, Conceptual Metaphor, Media Studies, Multimodality, Narrative. We also welcome studies from social-science and science & technology. with a focus on the nature of discourse.
