AB 本文以语用论辩学这一成熟的论辩理论为理论基础，以《华盛顿邮报》一篇有关阿里巴巴首次公开募股的社论为案例，探究批判性媒体话语分析的语用论辩研究路径。以期透过表层的语言使用，揭示其背后隐藏的意识形态、探究作者的真实意图。该路径主要包含四个部分：话语的论辩性重构、策略操控分析、合理性评价以及结合具体社会背景的社会批判。研究结果表明，《华盛顿邮报》在论辩过程中通过使用多种策略操控来实现其对受众的说服，主要体现在潜在话题、受众需求和表达手段三个方面的运筹帷幄。在案例中具体表现为开始阶段的出发点选取和论辩阶段的论证设计。然而，由于编委会自身政治立场和倾向的影响，它在使用策略操控时并未实现合理性和有效性的平衡。在论辩过程中，为了阻止美国投资者对阿里巴巴首次公开募股的投资，《华盛顿邮报》在使用策略操控时违反了自由规则、立场规则和论证图示规则特别是类比型和因果型论证图示的运用存在一定不足。Based on the research framework ofPragma-Dialectics, the study analyses andevaluates an editorial about Alibaba’s InitialPublic Offering (IPO) in The Washington Post todevelop a pragma-dialectical approach to criticalmedia discourse analysis. The approach consistsof four interrelated parts: reconstruction ofargumentation, analysis of strategic maneuvering,evaluation of reasonableness and social criticismon the basis of specific social reality. Theresearch results show that The Washington Postexerts different strategic maneuvering in thewhole argumentation process to convince itsaudience, which mainly reflected in themanipulation of potential topic, audience demandand presentation means. In the case study,strategic maneuvering is specifically supportedby the choice of starting points in the openingstage and the design of argumentation structurein the argumentation stage. Owing to theinfluence from the editorial board’s political stand and self-interest, it doesn’t balance thereasonableness and effectiveness and thereforesome manipulations contain fallacious moves.In order to prevent American investors to investAlibaba’s IPO, when using strategic maneuveringThe Washington Post violates freedom rule,standpoint rule and argument scheme rule,especially the application of argumentationscheme for the relation of analogy andargumentation scheme for a causal relation.
