ABSTRACT

The aim of the paper is to introduce the post-foundational discourse analysis (PDA) in nation studies, in particular, in research on football supporters’ (ultras) national(istic) discourse. The value of the PDA for nation studies lies in its analytical tools, which allow to give visibility to different national(istic) discourses creating meanings of nation and thus to explore how these meanings are created, how they become institutionalized and reproduced in social practices and how they are challenged. The PDA’s specific value for research on ultras’ nationalism lies in its conceptualisation and analytical tools for the study of social change. Considering the findings from different European countries showing that ultras’ nationalism is shaped by their resistance against current mainstream political nationalisms and ideologies expressed by rival ultras groups, the PDA can be a useful tool for empirical studies of the processes that have had an impact on its development.

摘要

本文的目的是在国家研究中引入后基础话语分析（PDA），特别是在对足球支持者（超级）民族（主义）话语的研究中。PDA 对民族研究的价值在于它的分析工具，它允许了解创造民族意义的不同民族（主义）话语，从而探索这些意义是如何被创造的，它们如何在社会实践中被制度化和再生产，以及他们是如何受到挑战的。PDA 对极端民族主义研究的特殊价值在于其用于研究社会变迁的概念化和分析工具。
