The volumes in this series investigate political, social and cultural processes from a linguistic/discourse-analytic point of view. The series offers monographs and edited volumes which combine language-based approaches with disciplines concerned essentially with human interaction — disciplines such as political science, international relations, social psychology, social anthropology, sociology, economics, and gender studies.
