"Discourse, Technology and Change" presents a detailed analysis of
discourses that initiate, enable, and stabilise social change in
organizational contexts. The book examines the function of written
discourse within this setting to examine the dynamic relationships
between writing, technology, and socio-cultural change. Focusing on
everyday texts used to create technical and social change, the book
offers a detailed study of the intersections of discourse,
technology and persuasion illustrated through an empirical case
study of technological change in an academic institution. The book
seriously engages the claim that texts dually construct and reflect
social networks and social action. Working at both the micro and
macro textual level, the book examines the functions of change
discourse providing a framework for understanding how change is
constituted within social networks. This cutting-edge monograph
will be of interest to academics researching discourse analysis and
applied linguistics.
