About CriDis: Crisis Discourse Blog (CriDis) is a platform for people interested in discourses of crisis. We offer accessible, but scientifically rigorous, analyses of current crisis debate and make suggestions for reflection. We look into framings, forms of language use, images and memes, ambiguous concepts and larger discourse configurations that suggest tackling a crisis in specific ways. We also use photography and illustration to engage with crisis debate. We believe that discourse analysis and artist intervention can help us to better navigate the mediatized drama of crisis and see through its social and political implications.

About the Covid-19 special edition of CriDis: The Covid-19 pandemic is revelatory of many current crisis tendencies, but it also reconfigured the way in which we imagine and do politics. This CriDis special edition on Covid-19 looks into nuances of the pandemic political that unfold from a discourse perspective: the re-drawn boundaries of inclusion and exclusion that constitute social groups, the governmentality of the responsible subject, pandemic biopolitics and possible alternatives, and the discourses and routines of states of exception. The Covid-19 special edition is an iniative of the DVPW discourse research group.
