Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This book is an impressive collection of chapters which investigates the role that digital communication technologies play in political discourse and civic engagement in Nigeria, Africa's largest democracy. The collection, written by fifteen seasoned African scholars and, drawn from diverse backgrounds approaches digital civic engagement from different perspectives of discourse analysis, such as, critical discourse analysis, corpus-assisted discourse model, socio-semiotic approaches and multimodal discourse analysis, computer-mediated discourse analysis, appraisal theory, as well as sociolinguistic and applied linguistic approaches. The authors demonstrate how the Internet has become the space for citizens' participation in the process of democratisation, as well as the key driver of change in many developing nations. The process of civic engagement which manifests through the verbal and visual semiotic resources on different social networking spaces, such as online newspapers feedback forums, Facebook, Badoo, Twooo, texting and instant messaging, discussion forums, political cartoons, and Charismatic religious sermons are explored. This book is a must read for researchers who are interested in the discourse of online civic engagement in the developing world.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume provides the nexus between language and politics in Nigeria, the world¿s most populous Black nation, where civilian rule is slowly but steadily morphing into deliberative democracy. Using a combination of traditional and new models, the contributions adopt linguistic and literary perspectives to analyse and discuss different socio-discursive engagements in the Nigerian democratic experience. New approaches from Digital Humanities show the impact of the ongoing digital revolution and developments in the Humanities. More traditional papers offer compelling insights on both the discursive and non-discursive habits of the contemporary Nigerian political actors in an effort to morefruitfully profile their identity while defining their attitude and level of commitment to delivering ¿dividends of democracy¿. This volume is an ambitious scholarly effort to critically comment on emerging themes and discursive practices in today¿s Nigerian political space, which may be relevant in other socio-political contexts. 206 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This paper generally lends support to the arguments advanced by Awonusi (1989, 1990, 2004) and others in favour of an endornormative as opposed to an exonormative standard for English pronunciation in Nigeria. They include the fact that the existing, exonormative standard, British Received Pronunciation (RP), has undergone and is still undergoing changes in its homeland, and is not homogeneous. The heightened social mobility of today¿s world perhaps works against the demarcation and homogenization of language varieties, and this is all the more true of the varieties or lects that have been proposed for Nigerian English when these are related, more or less explicitly, to educational attainment. Major attention is given in the paper to a schema of basilect, mesolect, and acrolect presented by Ugorji (2010), with a focus on his account of vowels and his presentation of a mechanism derived from optimality theory for evaluating vowels in contention. The basilect and the mesolect are found to be so close to each other that they might be combined. There would then be just two varieties. In contrast, the acrolect is close to British RP, albeit with many variants due to the conflict of two standardising forces, i.e. British RP and the basilect-mesolect. The vowel system of an officially adopted endonormative standard ¿ ¿Nigerian RP¿ ¿ would mainly be the same as that of British RP, but the optimality mechanism could be employed to give preference to some of the Nigerian variants for inclusion in it. 330 pp. Englisch.
