| description | This volume explores the discursive construction of debates around the topic of vaccination, with a particular focus on the hypothesis of a link between the MMR vaccine and autism. The research analyses the coverage of the debate in the British press up to 2019, through the tools of corpus-assisted discourse analysis and in light of the so-called “post-truth era”. The analysis focuses on the construction of medico-scientific debates in the media, in particular on issues of newsworthiness and polyphony. The discursive representation of evidence and the (de)legitimation strategies of social actors interacting in the debate are then explored. A large part of the volume is also devoted to the topic of argumentative narratives and the evidential value of personal experience. Each chapter of the monograph illustrates a connection between these aspects of the MMR vaccine controversy and the Covid-19 pandemic situation. |

Published Il volume esplora la costruzione discorsiva dei dibattiti intorno al tema della vaccinazione, con focus sull’ipotesi di collegamento tra il vaccino MPR e l’autismo. La ricerca analizza la copertura del dibattito sulla stampa britannica fino al 2019, tramite gli strumenti dell’analisi del discorso assistita da corpora e alla luce della cosiddetta “era della post-verità”. L’analisi si concentra sulla costruzione mediatica dei dibattiti medico-scientifici, in particolare sui temi della “notiziabilità” e della polifonia. Viene poi esplorata la rappresentazione discorsiva delle evidenze, nonché delle strategie di (de)legittimazione degli attori sociali che interagiscono nel dibattito. Una parte cospicua del volume è inoltre dedicata al tema delle narrative argomentative e del valore di evidenza dell’esperienza personale. Ciascun capitolo della monografia illustra un collegamento tra questi aspetti della controversia sul vaccino MPR e la situazione della pandemia da Covid-19 2024-04-29T12:10:38Z 2024-04-29T12:10:38Z 2024-04-23 book 979-12-5510-133-8 (print) 979-12-5510-137-6 (PDF) 979-12-5510-139-0 (EPUB) https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/136562 eng image/jpeg Attribution 4.0 International https://libri.unimi.it/index.php/milanoup/catalog/view/173/511/1512 Milano University Press Milano University Press https://doi.org/10.54103/milanoup.173 Il volume esplora la costruzione discorsiva dei dibattiti intorno al tema della vaccinazione, con focus sull’ipotesi di collegamento tra il vaccino MPR e l’autismo.
