Riots, strikes and protests are heavily mediatised events. Media
representations thus play a crucial role in narrating instances of
civil disorder for the public where they define the issues at
stake, delimit frames of reference and debate, and ultimately
legitimise or delegitimise the actors, actions and causes involved.
From a critical semiotic perspective, drawing on insights from
linguistics, multimodality and media studies, this book explores
the ideological dimensions of media representation and its function
in discursively constructing public understandings of, and
attitudes toward, civil disorder. A range of case studies are
presented which cut across time, communicative modality and genre,
and geo-political context.
