摘要

摘要随着全球健康威胁的激增，“健康安全”在国际安全中占很大比例。该研究借鉴了代理化理论，旨在通过对新冠肺炎大流行期间美国旅行限制政策的案例研究，揭示代理化如何使卫生紧急措施合法化。该研究基于大约60237个标记的语料库中的数据，从空间、时间和价值论的角度对被确定为近似触发因素的词典语法项目进行了注释和统计。然后，试图对健康安全话语进行批判性认知分析，表明通过构建威胁，从共时和历时两个方面，近似化有助于旅行限制的合法化。此外，研究结果表明，近似化方法适用于卫生安全话语的分析。值得注意的是，这项研究可能会为国家政治、危机管理和国际安全的研究提供新的视角。

Proximization: a critical cognitive analysis of health security discourse

Abstract With the surge of global health threats, “health security” constitutes a large proportion of international security. Drawing on proximization theory, the study aims to reveal how proximization serves to legitimize health emergency measures based on a case study of U.S. policies on travel restrictions amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The study annotated and counted the lexico-grammatical items identified as proximization triggers in terms of space, time, and axiology based on the data from a corpus of approximately 60,237 tokens. An attempt is then made for a critical cognitive analysis of health security discourse, indicating that proximization facilitates the legitimization of travel restrictions through the construction of threats, both synchronically and diachronically. Furthermore, the results suggest that the proximization approach is suited to the analysis of health security discourse. Notably, this study may shed new light on research into state politics, crisis management, and international security.

期刊介绍： Text & Talk (founded as TEXT in 1981) is an internationally recognized forum for interdisciplinary research in language, discourse, and communication studies, focusing, among other things, on the situational and historical nature of text/talk production; the cognitive and sociocultural processes of language practice/action; and participant-based structures of meaning negotiation and multimodal alignment. Text & Talk encourages critical debates on these and other relevant issues, spanning not only the theoretical and methodological dimensions of discourse but also their practical and socially relevant outcomes.
