The Media Discourse Construction of ‘A Community of Health for All’

President Xi Jinping's concept of a global community of health for all has strategically guided China's participation in global health governance in the new era. Taking relevant reports from the People's Daily as a research sample and employing corpus and semantic network analysis methods, this research proposes to focus on four dimensions: discourse generation, corpus construction, expression innovation, and discourse power enhancement, to form an integrated construction path for the media discourse of the global community of health for all. The study finds that in terms of discourse context, the concept inherits the internationalist, egalitarian, and solidarity discourses from the history of China's health diplomacy. In terms of discourse collocation, the reports use the themes of community, epidemic prevention and control, solidarity and cooperation, and the initiative concept. In terms of discourse network, the reports reflect China's globalist and multilateral stance, shaping the image of a contributor to global health governance. In terms of discourse practice, the reports, on the one hand, connect with domestic epidemic prevention and control policies, showing the transformation of China's health diplomacy, and, on the other hand, break the Western discourse monopoly, surpassing the Western-dominated health discourse system.

Abstract

President Xi Jinping's concept of a global community of health for all has strategically guided China's participation in global health governance in the new era. Taking relevant reports from the People's Daily as a research sample and employing corpus and semantic network analysis methods, this research proposes to focus on four dimensions: discourse generation, corpus construction, expression innovation, and discourse power enhancement, to form an integrated construction path for the media discourse of the global community of health for all. The study finds that in terms of discourse context, the concept inherits the internationalist, egalitarian, and solidarity discourses from the history of China's health diplomacy. In terms of discourse collocation, the reports use the themes of community, epidemic prevention and control, solidarity and cooperation, and the initiative concept. In terms of discourse network, the reports reflect China's globalist and multilateral stance, shaping the image of a contributor to global health governance. In terms of discourse practice, the reports, on the one hand, connect with domestic epidemic prevention and control policies, showing the transformation of China's health diplomacy, and, on the other hand, break the Western discourse monopoly, surpassing the Western-dominated health discourse system.
