This book investigates to what extent claims of common social
science risk theories such as risk society, governmentality, risk
and culture, risk colonisation and culture of fear are reflected in
linguistic changes in print news media. The authors provide a
corpus-based investigation of risk words in The New York Times
(1987-2014) and a case study of the health domain. The book
presents results from an interdisciplinary enterprise which
combines sociological risk theories with a systematic functional
theory of language to conduct an empirical analysis of linguistic
patterns and social change. It will be of interest to students and
scholars interested in corpus linguistics and digital humanities,
and social scientists looking for new research strategies to
examine long term social change.
