Field-based Critical Discourse Analysis

Field-based Critical Discourse Analysis (Field-based CDA) integrates Pierre Bourdieu's sociological concept of the field — structured social spaces with their own rules, capital, and positions — with the linguistic and critical tools of Critical Discourse Analysis. The approach examines how language constructs, legitimates, and contests power relations within specific institutional or social fields, situating texts in their broader sociological context rather than treating discourse in isolation.
