Editor's website

"With Discourse & Communication, Teun van Dijk creates a long-awaited forum for the sustained meeting of communication and discourse studies spanning many fields. This powerful, timely new journal stands to redefine the meaning and practice of discourse analysis across diverse social and cultural contexts." Karen Lee Ashcraft, University of Utah, USA

Discourse & Communication is a new inter-disciplinary journal edited by Teun A van Dijk (editor of Discourse & Society, Discourse Studies). Discourse & Communication is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles that pay specific attention to the qualitative, discourse analytical approach to issues in communication research.

Discourse & Communication publishes substantial research articles, discussion notes as well as reviews and review articles by women and men from many countries. Its diversity is apparent in the variety of its theories, methods and approaches, thus avoiding the frequent limitation to one school, approach or academic sect.

Discourse & Communication specifically addresses readers in any field of communication who are interested in qualitative, discourse analytical approaches, on the one hand, and scholars in discourse studies, linguistics, pragmatics, semiotics and related fields who are interested in issues of communication, on the other hand.
