Critical Discourse Studies (CDS) is a field of study that seeks to enhance our understanding of the role of discourse in social processes, social structures, and social change. In response to the significant concentration of discursive practices within the paradigm of social media communication, this book aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the key considerations in conducting CDS on social media spaces.

The book begins by setting out a set of aspiration signposting the parameters of doing social media CDS. It then proceeds to critically explore a number of contemporary case studies of digital discourses around identity, politics, and representation. These case studies encompass various social media communication platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, Wikipedia, and Twitter.

The book is of interest to researchers and advanced students in the fields of linguistics, politics, sociology, communication studies, media and cultural studies, and science and technology studies. It offers valuable insights into the ways in which discourse shapes social interactions, constructs identities, and influences political outcomes in the digital age.

Originally published as a special issue of the journal "Critical Discourse Studies," this book is a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the complex dynamics of discourse in contemporary society.
