摘要

痴呆症影响着全世界5500万人,在各国政府、卫生服务机构和护理提供者努力解决如何为痴呆症患者及其家人提供护理的问题之际,痴呆症已成为全球优先事项。在英国,早在21世纪初就有了治疗痴呆症的药物。关于药物的功效和效果一直存在重大争议。使用框架分析,我们调查了2011年至2018年期间英国新闻媒体对痴呆症药物的框架。框架装置在阐述痴呆症是什么样的问题方面发挥了话语作用。我们发现,新闻媒体以四种不同的方式为痴呆症制定药物“治疗”:为个人解决痴呆症问题;为社会预防和消除痴呆症这一灾难性疾病;应对不断上升的痴呆症费用;动员政治意愿和对药物治疗的投资。我们特别关注希望的主导话语是如何构成人们渴望的、想象中的未来的。我们认为,关于消除痴呆症和问题老龄化的平行论述采用了非人性化的语言和隐喻,产生了一个不老的制药未来,在这个未来中,需要照顾痴呆症患者,或更普遍的老年人,被根除。

Dementia and the disappearing subject: a framing analysis of drugs for dementia in UK news media
Dementia affects 55 million people worldwide and is a global priority as governments, health services and care providers grapple with how to provide care for people with dementia and their families. In the UK, drug treatments for dementia have been available since the early 2000s. There has been significant controversy regarding the efficacy and effectiveness of pharmaceuticals. Using framing analysis, we investigated how dementia drugs were framed in UK news media between 2011 and 2018. Framing devices do discursive work in setting out what kind of problem dementia is. We show that news media framed pharmaceutical ‘cures’ for dementia in four different ways: to solve the problem of dementia for the individual; to prevent and eliminate the catastrophic ills of dementia for society; to combat the rising cost of dementia; and to mobilise political will and investment in a pharmaceutical cure. We pay particular attention to how the dominant discourse of hope constituted desired-for, imagined futures. We argue that parallel discourses on eliminating dementia and problematic ageing adopt dehumanising language and metaphors which produce an ageless pharmaceutical future in which the need to care for people with dementia, or older people more generally, is eradicated.
