From the perspective of critical discourse analysis, the present study reveals, both qualitatively and quantitatively, that there has emerged a trend of discursive democratization in the New Year’s editorials in the People’s Daily. This emerging trend is signaled by the reduction of explicit power markers such as the modalities, the negative linguistic items of Judgment and by the increase of implicit power markers of positive linguistic items of Appreciation in Appraisal system. We suggest that discursive democratization in these editorials is the result of the restructuring of both institutional and societal orders of discourse in mainland China; however, the trend of discursive democratization is only conditional and rather limited under the current political system.

Turkey’s membership process to the European Union has been a ‘long, narrow and uphill road’, as former Turkish Prime Minister, and later President, Turgut Özal once stated. This study analyses the representation of the European Union–Turkey negotiation process in the Turkish newspapers Cumhuriyet and Hürriyet from 1959 to 2019 with the aim of understanding the changing meaning of ‘Europe’ and the ‘European Union’ in Turkish news discourse. There is comprehensive literature on the representation of Turkey’s membership process in the European press. This article aims to contribute to the field by assessing the representation of the same process from a different angle. For this purpose, Cumhuriyet and Hürriyet newspapers’ front page coverage of selected 10 key dates in the European Union–Turkey relations is analysed through critical discourse analysis.

Abstract This article presents an analysis of the evolution of Russia’s image representation in Georgian and Ukrainian political discourses amid Russian-Georgian and Russian-Ukrainian conflicts escalation. Even though Georgia’s and Ukraine’s troubled relations with neighboring Russia have been extensively studied, there has been little attention to the ideational dimensions of the confrontations, manifested in elite narratives, that would redraw the discursive boundaries between “Us” and “Them.” This study represents an attempt to fill the void, by examining the core narratives of the enemy, along with the discursive strategies of its othering in Georgian and Ukrainian presidential discourses through critical discourse analysis. The findings suggest that the image of the enemy has become a part of “New Georgia’s” and “New Ukraine’s” identity construction - inherently linked to the two countries’ “choice for Europe.” Russia has been largely framed as Europe’s other, with its “inherently imperial,” “irremediably aggressive” nature and adherence to illiberal, non-democratic values. The axiological and moral evaluations have been accompanied by the claims that the most effective way of standing up to the enemy’s aggression is the “consolidation of democratic nations,” coming down to the two countries’ quests for EU and NATO membership.

Based on the theoretical framework of projection of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and we used the corpus-driven approach to analyze quantitatively, this study chose People’s Daily Online, Global Times, as well as The Washington Post’s reports about two parades for celebrating National Day of China and US in 2019 to build four sub-corpora. It analyzed and discussed the projecting sources. The Mann-Whitney U test revealed that the differences in the distribution of projecting sources between the two mainstream newspapers were mainly reflected in the implicit projection source and the reporter projection source. The Media were the most important instituting projecting source for the two newspapers. While in terms of character sources, People’s Daily preferred to treat ordinary people as the main character projecting source and The Washington Post preferred to choose officials or parliamentarians.

 Understanding of the hidden intent or meaning behind the news texts can be known through critical discourse analysis. The basic understanding of critical discourse analysis is that discourse is not understood merely as an object of study of language but language as a tool used for certain purposes and practices including ideological and power practices. The data of this research are news texts with criminal problems in the newspaper Posmetro Padang. The source of this research data is the daily news of Posmetro Padang. Theo van Leeuwen's critical discourse analysis model is one of six critical discourse analysis models that allow the reader to know how a group or someone is marginalized or even favored in a news discourse. In addition, it helps so that readers can think more critically in analyzing a news discourse. Not only read but understand and interpret it so that it can know the hidden purpose in the news text.
