Abstract
Discourse analysis is now widely used in a variety of theoretical and disciplinary traditions. This entry provides a cursory overview of the field of discourse studies, paying particular attention to how language, as expressed in talk and text, is linked to national identity. The binary relationship of “us” and “them” is central to the formation of the nation. Racialized groups within the nation are often targets of racist discourses, which position them as threats to the nation. These discourses gain momentum and are legitimized through elite discourses communicated through the mass media. The self–other dynamic that is key to national identity is transposed to a domestic discourse that positions others (subordinated racialized minorities) either as not fitting into the nation or as deserving only conditional acceptance.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
