Abstract | This chapter, originally published in Spanish, addresses the ‘outcome question’ which troubles any practice of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA): what specific consequences, in terms of social action, are calculated or likely to follow from this form of critique? A range of strategies for social engagement commonly held to give direction to CDA are outlined, and problems inherent in such strategies are examined by means of a freeze-frame on a project in which the author was engaged. |
