“…religious discourse. As stated by Reisigl and Wodak (2017), with 'discourse' which primarily is conceived as topic-related (discourse on), religious discourse in this reply is established through the topic of (religious) rules of warfare. This is in the text is realized by the imperative sentence "Bunuh orang-orang kafir yang ada disekitarmu" (Kill those unbelievers who are around you).…”

This article explores how intertextuality and interdiscursivity in users comment on Facebook is exploited to supplement discrimination, repression or suppression to others. The Discourse Historical Approach (DHA) which falls under the umbrella of critical discourse analysis is employed to explore the mechanism of intertextuality and interdiscursivity in the users’ comments responding to news updates under the topic of Paris Tragedy posted by Kompas.com on its fans page. The data which are collected from the users’ comments are analyzed qualitatively. The finding shows that intertextually users import religious texts into their comments. The users also import discourses including discourse on religion, discourse on Middle East conflict, discourse on terrorism and discourse on law. In doing so, some texts and discourses undergo recontextualization by which certain elements of social practice are substituted or removed to serve the communicative purpose of the users’ comments. Finally, intertextuallity and interdisursivity serve to build a stigma by which a certain religion is negatively presented; to give the sense of being natural to the act of terrorism; to belittle the victims of the act of terrorism and to build negative evaluation through the evocation of past events.

“…Xenonyms, as explained by Resigl and Wodak, are particular choices of lexemes that dissimilate and discriminate the social actor in an explicit way in the discourse by putting him/her in a category, distinct from the In-group (Reisigl, 2017). The caricatures identified as an expression of xenonyms are discussed under the next heading.…”

The portrayal of Islam in a hostile relationship with rationality, liberty, and tolerance, leads to a politics of identity were a marginalized community embattles to re-affirm and resist the tarnished face. The bigoted perception of Islam as a political, economic, and social threat reinforces the unfounded Islamophobia and needs production of counter-narrative by scholars and researchers believing in humanity and equality. This paper aims to explore the discursive construction of Islam through the use of E-media caricatures. Discourse historical approach (DHA) is used to analyze the discourse of 16 Emedia caricatures disseminated on the World Wide Web in the years 2017 and 2018. The analysis demonstrates the discursive strategies namely referential strategy, predication, argumentation and intensification used in the (mis)representation and (de)legitimization of the face of Islam in the E-Media. This study gives a deeper insight into the issue of the negative identity construction of Islam using caricatures

“…Scholars working in the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) have developed a series of taxonomies with which to analyse a range of discursive strategies including 'nomination', 'predication', and 'argumentation' (see Reisigl and Wodak, 2016, p. 33;Horrod, Chapter 4). It emphasises the importance of historical contextualisation and triangulation of data, as well as the practical application of results, particularly in generating advice on developing better discourse practices (Reisigl, 2018). DHA is thus consequently also noted for its incorporation of ethnographic methods (see, for example, Wodak, 2009 on the European Parliament) and is operationalised through a series of steps, moving from macro to micro analysis of the problem under investigation, and has been extensively applied to problems of discrimination and social exclusion.…”
