In times of escalating of physical and symbolic conflicts, the increasing influence of social media, the rise of fake news and polarizing attitudes, it is also necessary to reflect on how Critical Discourse Scholars can address those challenges.

Under the theme Beyond Physical and Symbolic Spaces: Methods and Challenges in Critical Discourse Studies, we invite scholars to reflect on the evolution of the field and the ways in which different methodological schools address the quantitative and qualitative bridge.
