3. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is discourse
analytical research that primarily studies the way social-
power abuse and inequality are enacted, reproduced,
legitimated, and resisted by text and talk in the social and
political context. With such dissident research, critical
discourse analysts take an explicit position and thus want
to understand, expose, and ultimately challenge social
inequality (Blackwell, 466).

are structured to accommodate the ideology of society in relation to power
