The Human rights and critical discourse analysis: Fundamental links

Abstract

This project proposes and develops a series of interconnections between the fundamentals of Human Rights (HR) and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), conceiving them both as related disciplines with constituent elements which share certain points. This analysis takes into account elements from the hegemonic conceptualization of HR, as well as from their critical perspective, enrichening the common points found with CDA, with the aim of offering an integral approach that may lead to tools for social changes.
