Reviews

Marttila's analysis paints an impressive picture both as regards its social-theoretical penetration and its methodical and empirical coverage of the subject matter. The work makes a substantial contribution to analyzing discourse strategies and brings methodical discussion in the field of discourse analysis a good step forward. - Prof. Oliver Marchart, University of Lucerne, Switzerland Marttila's research is a real enrichment both for literature on discourse analysis and for literature on the change of welfare regimes. It proves in an exemplary way what discourse analysis is able to do. Looking at the results at hand, we have to establish that the author's substantial penetration into the methodological and methodical foundations of discourse analysis have been really worthwhile. - Prof. Richard Munch, University of Bamberg, Germany
