Conference

Date: 6/07/2022 - 8/07/2022
Registration deadline: 15/05/2022

DEADLINE EXTENDED!

We are pleased to announce that the 9th conference of the Critical 
Approaches
to Discourse Analysis Across Disciplines (CADAAD), jointly organized by the
University of Bergamo and Birmingham City University, will take place from
6-8 July 2022 and will be hosted by the University of Bergamo, Italy.

CADAAD conferences are intended to promote current directions and new
developments in cross-disciplinary critical discourse research from a
critical-analytical perspective, deal with contemporary social, scientific,
political, economic, or professional discourses and genres. Whilst we 
hope to
receive abstracts across the usual wide range of topics and approaches, we
also invite scholars to present papers and posters that that engage with 
this
year’s conference theme: (Critical) Discourse Analysis and the (new?)
normal.

Norms, normalities, and normativities have undoubtedly been disturbed in
recent years. Though ‘normal’ is a local, subjective, andfluid concept,
norms are fundamental to collective endeavour and social practices and have
important implications for ideology, power, and, of course, the construction
of meaning in discourse. Equally, the destabilisation or disruption of norms
gives rise to contestation over shared social values and normativities, as
well as opportunities to galvanise new ways of being. The need for
contemporary discourses to adjust to rapidly changing norms makes this an
area of particular interest for (critical) discourse analysis.

We are pleased to announce our plenary speakers:

Piotr Cap (University of Łódź)
	Jonathan Charteris-Black (University of West of England)
	Massimiliano Demata (University of Turin)
	TBC: Frans van Eemeren (University of Amsterdam)
