This book introduces the methodology of critical discourse analysis
(CDA) to the study of participatory planning. CDA uses linguistic
analysis to elucidate social issues and processes and is
particularly suited to institutional practices and how they are
changing in response to changing social conditions. Illustrated by
two case studies from Australia, it examines the talk between the
various participants in a formal stakeholder committee context over
five years, during which time they went through several phases of
changing power dynamics, conflict and reconciliation. The book
demonstrates the value of CDA to this field of research and
develops specific techniques and conceptual tools for applying the
methodology to the 'formal talk' context of collaborative planning
committees. It also sheds light on the dynamics of interaction
between 'stakeholders' and bureaucracies - particularly with
respect to inherent communicative barriers, power inequalities, and
the development of new discursive practices.
