This book compares how British and Spanish media have covered the
French ban on hijab wearing in public schools. Using
interdisciplinary approaches ranging from social psychology,
semiology, cognitive linguistics and sociology, it seeks to explain
how the hijab is interpreted as a sign by the mainstream culture,
and hijab-wearing Muslim sub-culture. Based on an analysis of 108
articles published in the national newspaper from each context,
this comparative study operates on two levels: a micro-level
analysis of within-culture variations between mainstream culture
and the hijab-wearing women; and a macro-level analysis of the
cross-cultural variation between the British context and the
Spanish one. The result is a profound insight into how each
discourse reveals the different level of social integration of
hijab-wearing women in these two different contexts. The Analysis
methodology combines between Critical Discourse Analysis CDA,
Conceptual Metaphor Theory CMT, and Cognitive Linguistics CL. The
book introduces a novel analysis methodology for social and
linguistic sciences. It is the Cognitive Critical Discourse
Analysis methodology CCDA.
