(Official Discourse is an unofficial report of theoretical investigations into a specific state practice the publication of reports of official inquiries into law, order and justice issues. The commissions, tribunals and committees of inquiry scrutinized in this book examine problems arising from wrongful imprisonment, police corruption, industrial picketing, and communal rioting and internment in Northern Ireland. In attempting to answer the question Why do government reports take the form they do? , the authors make excursions into linguistics, psychoanalysis and marxism. This unusual book is the product. Its chapters can be read as a series of discrete essays on government publications, discourse analysis, state and ideology, judicial reasoning, and politics and theory. Taken together, however, the essays can be read as a theoretical deconstruction and elaboration of a specific ideological practice. It is thus an exercise in discourse analysis, an exercise in theoretical work that looks at the relationships between theory and literary production. It is also a critique of official conceptions of law, order and justice)

hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
