Strategies for Optimizing the China-ASEAN Discourse System in the All-Media Era: A Study Based on COVID-19 and Corpus-Assisted Analysis

Abstract

The establishment of an international discourse system constitutes a critical component of national soft power. This study employs AntConc 4.2.4 corpus analysis software to investigate how five major Chinese and English mainstream media outlets in ASEAN countries portrayed China’s anti-pandemic measures from 2019 to 2024. The analysis identifies divergences in the depiction of China by ASEAN’s official media and overseas Chinese media. Based on these findings, the study proposes strategies to enhance comprehensive engagement with ASEAN nations and develop a multifaceted, multidimensional discourse system guided by official initiatives and complemented by public participation, thereby bolstering China’s international communication capability. 119-130 Strategies for Optimizing the China-ASEAN Discourse System in the All-Media Era A Study Based on COVID-19 and Corpus-Assisted Analysis 下载 Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Share this: Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook
