Posthumanism and Deconstructing Arguments

Posthumanism and Deconstructing Arguments presents a new and practical approach in Critical Discourse Studies, providing a data-driven method for the examination of arguments in the public sphere. This ground-breaking book shows how the reader can evaluate arguments from points of view other than their own, using digital tools to generate 'ethical subjectivities' from dissenting voices on the internet. O'Halloran showcases a critical deconstructive approach using corpus linguistic programs and drawing on posthumanist philosophy. This book is essential reading for all those with an interest in critical discourse studies, critical thinking, corpus linguistics and digital humanities.
