Critical Discourse Analysis developed from critical linguistics, which was initiated around the 1980s by Hodge and Kress (1979) and Fowler and Kress (1979). This field of linguistics set a quite ambitious objective: “The main aim of critical linguistics and later critical discourse analysis […] was to make clear (or, at least, clearer) the link between ideology and the language in which that ideology is expressed and reproduced in specific social situations” (Munday, 2007, p. 198). The motivating force behind such research was to “explore the value systems and sets of beliefs which reside in texts: to explore, in other words, ideology in language” (Simpson, 1993, p. 5, emphasis in original; qtd. in Munday, 2007, p. 198).

This endeavour was supported by the assertion that language reproduces ideology. Such an approach is fundamentally functional in nature: CDA research, on the one hand, aims to demonstrate how surface text features semantically function and, on the other hand, it offers explanations as to the means power and ideology are reproduced and maintained with the help of these surface text features.

CDA is a truly multidisciplinary science, and its contributing disciplines are manifold. CDA, on the other hand, has “counterparts in ‘critical’ developments in sociolinguistics, psychology, and the social sciences” (van Dijk, 2001, p. 352). Below, the history of CDA will be briefly described and some of its most influential traditions and scholars will be highlighted for a full account, see Wodak and Meyer 2001).
