Discourse Analysis: What Makes It Critical?

What makes the research "discourse analysis"? Why is it a "critical discourse analysis"? I will give an opinion on these issues in this article. I would like to clarify ambiguous questions in the educational work that sometimes means anecdotal reflection of text or verbal text by "discourse analysis" which I have considered, so my consideration is basics It will be something else. Regarding Critical Discourse Analysis, sometimes this seems to be equivalent to preaching your own politics without careful examination of verbal or written languages.

Critical Discourse Analysis Jan Blommaert and Chris Bulcaen briefly introduced Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). CDA is primarily intended to use social theory for discourse analysis, based on linguistics (Blommaet & Bulcaen, 2000, p. 447).

Critical discourse analysis provides an interdisciplinary approach to analysis and a flexible meta-language for sociological analysis of text and discourse. The emergence of critical discourse analysis has at least three interrelated meanings for educational research and educational sociology. First of all, it means reexamination of educational practice. Historically, education theory and practice has relied on the development of children, industrial machinery, personal rationality, and recent digital computer's basic metaphor. The metaphor provided by post-structuralism is text as an interpretable phenomenon that constitutes all educational and intellectual efforts.

The application of critical discourse analysis in educational research needs more than the development of educational discourse sociology. Critical discourse analysis makes it possible to simulate images of language, text, and discourse in the generation and reproduction of educational outcomes. Historically, the focus of educational sociology was on the structure, process and results of educational institutions. If you really want to understand how educational institutions play a role in postmodern economy, nation state, culture, you need to look at language, discourse and text research.
