| With Chinese society undergoing a profound social change, various socialconflicts are happening frequently resulting from the inconsistent competition in theeconomic field and the imperfect system in the political field. In the transitionmoment, how does news discourse present the social conflict? What does newsdiscourse practice on issues of social conflict? What kind of role does news discourseplay on the political construction? These what the author try to solve..Under the guidance of the critical discourse theory of Vatican.Dick andFairclough Norman, the author analyzes the news discourse of issues of social conflictsfrom three dimensions: textual dimension, discursive dimension and social practicedimension, whose evolution formulates a gradual process from description tointerpretation to anatomy of the discourses.Firstly, the author chooses eight typical samples of social conflict issues to dodeeply textual analysis from many aspects including the macro-structure andmicro-structure to discover how the media construct the social conflicts; and thenthrough a intercourse-text analysis of the eight samples and a case study, exploreshow news discourse practices form the interaction between the government; Finally,puts the news discourse to the context of Chinese media system and political systemto do a social practice analysis. As a result, three functions from the news discourse ofissues of social conflict can be concluded: the news discourse does a tendentiousconstruction of social conflict in the micro-level, and promotes the society to form thereal and symbolic interaction of the government, and help the process of daily lifepolity in the macro-level. |
