Abstract:

In this paper, an integrated analytical framework of “text structure-cognitive mechanism-social structure” is established and applied to corpus-assisted discourse analysis concerning the political discourse about ecological civilization with the aim of revealing the interactions and cognitive mechanisms of the interconnections between discourse structure and social structure. The analysis revealed that four thematic topics, namely ecology, civilization, construction, and governance, were constructed, and that three cognitive mechanisms, namely metaphorical frame, de/recategorization, and cultural schema, were mainly used. The correspondence and interaction between text structure and cognitive mechanisms point to the underlying dominant ideology, which is embodied as the ontology of socialist ecological civilization, dialectic materialism and methodology, and the traditional cultural stance. It is through the interactions of three dimensions, namely text structure, cognitive mechanisms, and social structure, that the discourse concerning ecological civilization effectively constructs a set of new thoughts about civilization, as well as the new norms of social practice. The production, reproduction, communication, and acceptance of such discourse serves the ideological function of reconstructing the view of civilization, regulating social actions, and envisioning the future. This social-cognitive study contributes to the construction of a discourse system for ecological civilization and enhances the discursive efficacy.

Keywords: social cognition; cognitive mechanism; textual structure; social structure; ecological civilization

摘要：

本文构建了一个“语篇结构—认知机制—社会结构”整合性研究框架，对我国生态文明话语开展语料库辅助下的话语分析，揭示话语结构与社会结构之间的认知连接机制和互动关系。本研究发现，该类话语主要构建了4类主题——生态、文明、建设和治理，启用了3类认知机制——隐喻框架、去/再范畴化和文化图式。语篇结构和认知机制相呼应，集中体现了社会主义生态文明的本体论、辩证唯物主义世界观和方法论以及传统文化立场。通过语篇结构、认知机制和社会结构的互动，生态文明话语有效地构建了一套新的文明理念和社会实践准则，通过不断的话语生产和再生产、传播和接受，实现重构文明观、规范社会行为和构想文明前景的意识形态功能。生态文明话语的认知研究有助于推动生态文明话语体系建设，进一步提升话语构建效力。
