  • Conservative Party Strategy, 1997-2001: Nation and National Identity
    Conservative Party Strategy, 1997-2001: Nation and National Identity A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy , Claire Elizabeth Harris Department of Politics, University of Sheffield September 2005 Acknowledgements There are so many people I'd like to thank for helping me through the roller-coaster experience of academic research and thesis submission. Firstly, without funding from the ESRC, this research would not have taken place. I'd like to say thank you to them for placing their faith in my research proposal. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Andrew Taylor. Without his good humour, sound advice and constant support and encouragement I would not have reached the point of completion. Having a supervisor who is always ready and willing to offer advice or just chat about the progression of the thesis is such a source of support. Thank you too, to Andrew Gamble, whose comments on the final draft proved invaluable. I'd also like to thank Pat Seyd, whose supervision in the first half of the research process ensured I continued to the second half, his advice, experience and support guided me through the challenges of research. I'd like to say thank you to all three of the above who made the change of supervisors as smooth as it could have been. I cannot easily put into words the huge effect Sarah Cooke had on my experience of academic research. From the beginnings of ESRC application to the final frantic submission process, Sarah was always there for me to pester for help and advice.

  • Principles of Critical Discourse Analysis
    Principles of critical discourse analysis Teun A. van Dijk UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM ____________________________________________________ ABSTRACT. This paper discusses some principles of critical discourse analy- sis, such as the explicit sociopolitical stance of discourse analysts, and a focus on dominance relations by elite groups and institutions as they are being enacted, legitimated or otherwise reproduced by text and talk. One of the crucial elements of this analysis of the relations between power and discourse is the patterns of access to (public) discourse for different social groups. Theoretically it is shown that in order to be able to relate power and discourse in an explicit way, we need the cognitive interface of models. knowledge, attitudes and ideologies and other social represen- tations of the social mind, which also relate the individual and the social, and the micro- and the macro-levels of social structure. Finally, the argu- ment is illustrated with an analysis of parliamentary debates about ethnic affairs. KEY WORDS: access, critical discourse analysis, discourse, dominance, Great Britain, parliamentary debates. power, racism, social cognition, text ____________________________________________________ 1. INTRODUCTION This paper discusses some principles, aims and criteria of a critical dis- course analysis (CDA). It tries to answer (critical) questions such as What is critical discourse analysis (anyway) ? , How is it different from other types of discourse analysis? , What are its aims, special methods, and especially what is its theoretical foundation? Also, it acknowledges the need to examine, in rather practical terms. how one goes about doing a critical analysis of text and talk. In general, the answers to such questions presuppose a study of the relations between discourse, power, dominance, social inequality and the position of the discourse analyst in such social relationships.

  • Assembly Members' Services 2005-2006
    Assembly Members' Services 2005-2006 (the Fourth Annual Report of the House Committee under Standing Order 18.12, dealing with the year 1 April 2005 to 31 March 2006) October 2006 Foreword by the Presiding Officer The House Committee was a creation of Assembly Members to run their own ‘House’. With the passage of the Government of Wales Act 2006, the Assembly Commission will be responsible for providing services and resources to Members and employ Assembly staff. As this is the last report in this form, may I thank Colleagues, both Assembly Members and Staff, for their commitment to our democratic adventure. May I particularly thank the Chair of House Committee during the whole period of this Report, Dr John Marek AM, for his commitment of time and energy to ‘House’ issues. No other event showed Staff commitment to better effect than the joint efforts by our Staff and Contractors ably led by Managers to get the new Senedd open for public use on time. St David’s Day’s Royal Opening gave us world- wide positive coverage and the Welsh public has voted with their feet by visiting us in huge numbers. Let’s hope they will also vote with their hands in our forthcoming third Welsh General Election. 1 Foreword by the Deputy Presiding Officer (Chair of the House Committee) The year 2005-6 has seen two important events in the development of the National Assembly. The first was the introduction in the Houses of Parliament, Westminster, of the Government of Wales Bill, which has since received Royal Assent.

    North Wales Regional Committee Report to the Assembly 1. Introduction 1.1 The North Wales Regional Committee is one of the Assembly’s four regional committees. It covers Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Isle of Anglesey, Wrexham and the area of Gwynedd made up of the former districts of Afron and Dwyfor. 1.2 Between July 2001 and July 2002 the Committee was chaired by Eleanor Burnham. The other Members of the Committee are Alison Halford, Ann Jones, Gareth Jones, John Marek, Tom Middlehurst, Alun Pugh, Rod Richards, Peter Rogers, Janet Ryder, Karen Sinclair, Dafydd Wigley and Ieuan Wyn Jones. Lord Dafydd Elis Thomas is a Member but does not attend the meetings in view of his role as Presiding Officer. 1.3 The Committee met 5 times between July 2001 and July 2002. Details of the dates, venues, topics discussed and subsequent action taken are attached at Annex 1. 2. Remit and Method of Working 2.1 The role of the regional committees, as defined by Standing Order 10.2, is to advise the National Assembly on matters affecting their regions, the effect of Assembly policies in those regions and the work of public bodies there. 2.2 The Committee has continued with the working practices established during the previous reporting year. This involves arranging meetings around a specific theme with a strong emphasis on public participation throughout discussion. 2.3 Given his responsibility for the co-ordination of policy of North Wales, the Committee issued a standing invitation to the First Minister to attend its meetings. The First Minister attended meetings in Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant, Llandudno Junction and Gresford.
