  1. Exploring primary school immigrant students’ soft hate speech: evidence from Greece.Nikoletta Panagaki, Argiris Archakis & Villy Tsakona - forthcoming - Critical Discourse Studies.

In this context, hate speech is reinforced in the form not only of violent racist acts (hard hate speech) but mostly of mitigated rejection and covert discriminatory practices (soft hate speech).

    Humour as discursive practice in Nigeria’s 2015 presidential election online campaign discourse.Oluwabunmi Oyebode & Adeyemi Adegoju - 2015 - Discourse Studies 17 (6):643-662.
    One of the most popular forms of humour on the Internet is memes. Given the identity construction motif that is associated with memes, agents of memes select targets outside the in-group and criticise the targets’ behaviour for ideological purposes. This study examines the patterns of humour evidenced in the deployment of Internet memes in the online campaign discourse of the 2015 presidential election in Nigeria. Data for the study consist of Internet memes produced and disseminated during the presidential election campaign (...)
