INTRODUCTION

Language and Power is a book which provides an overview of the field of institutional discourse and introduces some main theorists, such as Foucault, Habermas, Weber. The language is used differently in different institutions, which is the main concern of both sociolinguistics and social theory. So is the language of power. The book covers plenty of different institutional contexts, such as the workplace, prison, courtroom, the media, academia, so it gives us a great chance to study the similarities and differences in the practices of institutional discourse and discuss some means to the analysis of institutional discourse including interactional sociolinguistics, ethnomethodology, critical discourse analysis, conversation analysis, and corpus-based analysis. Chapters B7、C7、D7 are chosen to be translated in this practice. There are a lot of examples used to analyze the relation between language and the law.

Chapter B7 introduces the developments in forensic discourse analysis, including presupposition and the “leading question”, interrogation and cross-examination, and the Electro-Statics Detection Apparatus.

Chapter C7 explores forensic texts, such as legal language as register, electro-static detection analysis, cultural differences in police interviews, speech naturalism in transcripts of evidence, gender and power in the court and legal language in everyday life.

Chapter D7 describes forensic linguistics, according to the invented and concealed dialogue in written records of verbal evidence produced by the police, the linguistic evidence and the judgment.
