Codes of Corruption: A Critical Realist Discourse Analysis of Illicit Transactions.

Dr. Karin Zotzmann is an associate professor in Applied Linguistics at the University of Southampton and has worked for eight years in the same area at different public and private universities in Mexico. Before taking up her position in Southampton she also worked at the Institute of Education, University of London (now University College London). She holds three MAs—one each in German, English and Spanish—and a PhD from Lancaster University where she specialized, under the supervision of Norman Fairclough, on Critical Discourse Analysis. In the past, she has worked on the marketization of higher education, the conceptualization of intercultural competencies and learning in different social domains (education, business, and military), social class and intersectionality in language teaching and learning and academic literacy. All her work is theoretically informed by Critical Realism. In this presentation, Dr Zotzmann discusses her latest work on utilising critical realism and discourse analysis to analyse levels of corruption, specifically, in utilising the analytical dualism between agency and structure. In doing this research, it therefore claims to mitigate upwards and downwards conflation.
