Language matters : doing systematic (critical) discourse analysis in criminology
- Author

- Abstract
- This chapter offers practical advice to researchers who embark on the enterprise of conducting (critical) discourse analysis. It starts with a brief outline of the main premises of discourse analysis and highlights its scarce application within the discipline of criminology in particular. Subsequently, the reader will find some “clues” about coding and analysis, tracing discursive strategies, and “zooming out” to connect language use to its context. Finally, enhancing the quality of analysis and avoiding self-confirmation are addressed. The overall aim is not to offer a straightforward “how to” guide, but to encourage transparent and coherent (critical) discourse analysis.
