Language and Gender

Abstract: The field of language and gender is methodologically diverse, encompassing approaches that include conversation analysis, corpus linguistics, critical discourse analysis, discursive psychology, linguistic anthropology, and variationist sociolinguistics.

The sociolinguistic approach will reveal how language and discourse in professional communication contain the hidden meaning of traditional gender ideologies.The book examines five critical issues related to the conflict discourse about family and work roles (Chapter 2), the discrimination and marginalization which operate through the geopolitically language (Chapter 4), the implications of issues of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, and social class for women leaders and migrant workers on the representation of identity and global challenges (Chapters 3, 5, and 6), the leadership stereotypes based on gender, "thinking leaders, thinking men" (Chapter 7 and 9), and the stereotypes of sex roles in the profession and domestic constructed by the sociocultural order and implemented in the language and category of the professional gender (Chapter 8 and 10).In Chapter 2, Stephanie Schnurr investigates the discourse about family and work by analyzing the successful women interviewed as celebrity leaders from the Middle East, India, the USA, and Nigeria on the TEDx Talks YouTube account.…”
