Critical Neuronormative Discourse Analysis (CNDA)

Taxonomy of Terms / V. Reading and method

CNS term. Defined on this site.

Critical discourse analysis with neuronormativity as its ideological object. CNDA reads institutional texts, such as hiring guides, policy strategies and university neurodiversity pages, for the cognitive-affective norm they assume, the forms of divergence they make legible and the forms they leave out, and the work of capture the text performs.
