TEUN A. VAN DIJK is Professor of Discourse Studies in the Department of
Translation and Philology at Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona. He has
edited Discourse Studies (2007) and Racism at the Top (co-edited with Ruth
Wodak, 2000) and is the author of Racism and Discourse in Spain and Latin
America (2005) and Ideology (1998).
Van Dijk presents a new theory of context that explains how text and
talk are adapted to their social environment. He argues that instead of the
usual direct relationship being established between society and discourse,
this influence is indirect and depends on how language users themselves
define the communicative situation. The new concept van Dijk introduces for
such definitions is that of context models. These models control all language
production and understanding and explain how discourse is made appropriate
in each situation. They are the missing link between language and society so
far ignored in pragmatics and sociolinguistics. In this interdisciplinary book,
the new theory of context is developed by examining the analysis of the
structure of social situations in social psychology and sociology and their
cultural variation in anthropology. The theory is applied to the domain of
politics, including the debate about the war in Iraq, where political leaders’
speeches serve as a case study for detailed contextual analysis. In another book
published by Cambridge University Press, Discourse and Context, Teun A.
van Dijk presents the (socio)linguistic and cognitive foundations of this
multidisciplinary theory of context and the way context influences language
use and discourse.
