| Title: | Charting the path of sustainability discourse research : a systematic review of applied linguistic studies | Authors: | Nervino, E Cheung, JO Chen, J |
Issue Date: | Aug-2024 | Source: | International journal of applied linguistics, Aug. 2024, v. 34, no. 3, p. 862-883 | Abstract: | This paper aims to understand the state-of-the-art of research on sustainability discourse in applied linguistics. The paper adopts a systematic two-stage review approach. In the first stage, 114 articles were classified into environment, social, and governance (ESG) according to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) categories. The second stage involves annotating the dataset using an open-coding system based on data types explored in the studies, methodologies used, findings, and implications. The findings lead to a comprehensive review of diachronic changes in the investigation of sustainability topics, data types, sampling, frameworks, analytical tools, findings, and implications to ultimately set the grounds for future research on sustainability discourse in applied linguistics and related disciplines—for example, communication studies. Il presente studio si propone di analizzare lo stato dell'arte della ricerca sul discorso della sostenibilità nell'ambito della linguistica applicata. L'approccio adottato per l'analisi sistematica degli studi condotti su tale argomento si articola in due fasi. Nella prima fase, è stata effettuata una classificazione di 114 articoli in base alle categorie Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), seguendo le linee guida fornite dalla Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). La seconda fase prevede l'analisi degli studi mediante un sistema di codifica basato sui tipi di dati esaminati, le metodologie impiegate, i risultati ottenuti e le relative implicazioni. I risultati ottenuti consentono di offrire una panoramica completa dei cambiamenti diacronici nell'indagine dei temi legati alla sostenibilità, dei tipi di dati considerati, delle teorie e degli strumenti analitici utilizzati, dei risultati ottenuti e delle relative implicazioni. Tale analisi mira inoltre a gettare le basi per future ricerche sul discorso della sostenibilità nell'ambito della linguistica applicata e nelle discipline ad essa correlate, quali ad esempio gli studi sulla comunicazione. |
