Conference

Over the last decades, the research program outlined by the Sociology of Knowledge Approach to Discourse (SKAD) has spread to many disciplines in social science. SKAD discourse research, drawing upon Michel Foucault’s work, symbolic interactionism and sociology of knowledge, is interested in exploring processes of ‘discursive construction of reality’, social relations of knowledge and knowing, and politics of knowledge and knowing – the manifold ways of discursive meaning making.

We are pleased to announce that the International Conference on Discourse Studies Across Disciplines (ICDSAD) will take place from October 23 to 27, 2022, and will be hosted by Sheikhbahaee University, Isfahan, Iran.ICDSAD seeks to advance current directions and developments in cross-disciplinary areas of discourse studies, including linguistics, translation studies, teaching, and education.
