Analysing Discourses - Analysing Future Politics. a Study of Discourses on Climate-Related Migration in Bangladesh
Refering to a discourse analysis perspective – in particular the Critical Discourse Analysis perspective – seems particularly relevant to understand how climate-related migration are perceived in Bangladesh and how those discourses shape the future national policy response (or, on the contrary, the lack of policy interventions). In other terms, how those discourses, that are constructed or even manipulated, shape future climate-related migration scenarios and the policies tailored to these new challenges.
Finally, this paper explores – through an original discourse analysis - the importance of problem-framing and social determinants that influence the emergence (or the non-emergence) of a new public problem and its political aspects. Using a set of concepts and methods from different disciplines – sociology of organisations, sociology of public problem, political science, linguistic etc -, it also invites to transcend disciplinary boundaries and to develop an innovative thinking.
