2017 Nguyễn Đặng Mai Linh ii ABSTRACT This study is a critical discourse analysis of Chinese and Vietnamese online media coverage of the East Sea dispute from May 1, 2014 to July 16, 2014 A critical discourse analysis was made to delineate the contrasting representations of China and Vietnam With the purpose of discerning the underlying ideologies of the reporters, Fairclough‟s CDA framework and Halliday‟s systemic-functional theory were used to analyze the news reports The study just focused on some linguistic features of the text In terms of lexical choice, only overwording was analyzed Then with respect to grammatical analysis, transitivity was scrutinized The researcher made an attempt to illustrate the relationship between language, ideology and political stance The findings showed that the underlying ideologies hidden in the news discourse revolved around “us” and “them” side The online media coverage of both China and Vietnam intended to present the positive selfrepresentation while disparaging the other-representation In other words, their own country was depicted in favorable light as a rational, peace-loving, law-abiding country Meanwhile, the opponent was portrayed as an aggressor who acted brashly, illegally in the law-based community iii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS iv LIST OF FIGURES Figure 1: Interpretation stage 10 Figure 2: Explanation stage 11
