This book traces the re-emergence of nationalism in the media,
popular culture and politics, and the normalization of far-right
nativist ideologies and attitudes in Austria between 1995 and 2015,
within the framework of Critical Discourse Studies. In doing so, it
brings together a range of theoretical and empirical approaches to
identity politics, contemporary popular culture, far-right populism
and commemoration. While contradictory yet intertwined tendencies
towards renationalization and transnationalization have often
framed debates about European identities, the so-called refugee
crisis of 2015 intensified and polarized these debates. The
COVID-19 pandemic, as another major crisis, saw nation-states react
by closing borders, while symbols of banal nationalism
proliferated. The data under discussion here, drawn from a variety
of empirical studies, suggest that changes in memory politics-the
way past events are collectively remembered and tied into current
political discourses-are also linked to the dynamics of migration;
the influence of financial and climate crises; changing gender
politics; and a new transnational European politics of the past.
Accordingly, the authors assess current challenges to liberal
democracies, as well as fundamental human and constitutional
rights, in relation to new trends of renationalization across
Europe and beyond.
In the midst of an international crisis in migration policy -
widely referred to as a 'refugee crisis' - this book brings
together timely analyses of the manifold and yet specific ways in
which migration affects globalized societies, set against the
background of the rise of nationalist and populist movements. The
voices of migrants and refugees are rarely heard in this context:
usually, they are debated about, summarized and reported but their
agency is denied. Each contribution to this volume adds an
empirical perspective to our understanding of how language relates
to migration in a specific national context. The chapters use
innovative combinations of multimodal, qualitative and quantitative
analyses to examine a broad range of genres and data related to the
voices of migrants and reporting about migrants.
This book revisits discourse analytic practice, analyzing the idea
that the field has access to, provides, or even constitutes a
'toolbox' of methods. The precise characteristics of this toolbox
have remained largely un-theorized, and the author discusses the
different sets of tools and their combinations, particularly those
that cut across traditional divides, such as those between
disciplines or between quantitative and qualitative methods. The
author emphasizes the potential value of integrating methods in
terms of triangulation and its specific benefits, arguing that
current trends in Open Science require Discourse Studies to
re-examine its methodological scope and choices, and move beyond
token acknowledgements of 'eclecticism'. In-depth case studies
supplement the methodological discussion and demonstrate the
challenges and benefits of triangulation. This book will be a
valuable resource for students and scholars in Discourse Studies,
particularly those with an interest in combining methods and
working across disciplines.

Wie andere nationale Identitaten werden auch oesterreichische
Identitaten uber eine Vielzahl von Diskursen hergestellt und
verhandelt, darunter Debatten uber relevante, manchmal
kontroversielle politische, historische, juristische Fragen. Diese
Identitatsentwurfe erweisen sich als dynamisch und veranderlich.
Funf inhaltliche Schwerpunkte ergeben sich aus der Analyse: die
Konstruktion des Homo Austriacus/der Femina Austriaca, einer
gemein-samen Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft sowie einer
gemeinsamen Kultur und eines "nationalen Koerpers". Das vorliegende
Buch stellt die Ergebnisse eines dreijahrigen Forschungsprojektes
zu oesterreichischen Identitatsentwurfen im Gedenkjahr 2015 dar und
zeichnet dafur die Entwicklungen seit 1995 nach. Der Inhalt
