Academic discourse practices in economics: a critical approach to evaluation strategies
Abstract
The aim of this work is to carry out a linguistic-critical approach to academic for- mation practices in economics in order to make clear how it is verbally constructed the socio- disciplinary imaginary. The starting point is the idea that disciplinary texts of economics are not exempt from evaluation procedures and that these show an ideological position, although this was not always consciously. A brief approach to academic language and the nature of the studies that have been done on it will allow us to contextualize the disciplinary discourse of economics. was formulated by the Systemic Functional Linguistics in its Appraisal Theory (Martin and White, 2005; Hood, 2005), but considering the contributions of Hunston and Thompson (2000) and Alba-Thompson and Judge (2014).We will use the concept of eva- luation and the basic classification of its com- ponents as it was formulated by the Systemic Functional Linguistics in its Appraisal Theory (Martin and White, 2005; Hood, 2005), but considering the contributions of Hunston and Thompson (2000) and Alba-Thompson and Judge (2014). Finally two texts on growth and poverty will be analyzed in order to see the way they are expressed using different valuation systems and how it can affect the ideological construction of both concepts from the very beginning of the learning of the subject.Downloads
