This study identifies three essential components in arriving at joint decisions, and discusses two other possible (...) |

However incongruities between stance and status result in action ascriptions that are at variance with the action stance that is otherwise (...) |

In this article, we attempt to partially fill this research gap by examining the institutionalized aspects of strategy discourse: what strategy is as genre. Combining textual analysis and analysis of conversation, the article focuses on the official strategy of the City of Lahti in Finland. Our analysis shows how specific communicative purposes (...) |
