| dc.description.abstract | For almost six decades, the history of the Lake Chad Basin has survived a complex discourse practice, and not a lot has been achieved in terms of the development of communities living around its shores. Decades of discourse production has had its share of influence on the region’s social construction through the LCBC’s management processes - the institution mandated to manage the resources of the region. The region’s stagnant development shows there is a need to strategize on future discourse communication. This is a qualitative single case-study research which employs the analytical approach of critical discourse analysis (CDA) as a method of investigation. Following certain guidelines of the Discourse Historical Approach (a method of CDA), the research analyses developing dominant discourses that have been trending the Lake Chad Basin discourse practice. The objective was to identify who the major discourse actors are and to explain how their discourses have been influencing management decisions of the LCBC. The study also identifies the dislocation events in discourses and how discourses have been developing through a CDA element of interdiscursivity. In the conclusion, certain trends are identified with regards to the research objectives; these are explained and recommendations are provided. | en_US |
