Margarete Jäger
Margret Jäger (author's name) or Margarete Jäger (born March 15, 1951, in Duisburg) is a German linguist and director of the Duisburg Institute for Linguistic and Social Research (DISS).[1][2]
Scientific biography[edit]
After studying economics (diploma) 1972-1977 and a second degree in German studies 1985–1990, both in Duisburg,[2] Jäger received his doctorate in 1995 at the Department of Literature and Linguistics at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg.
Her areas of work at the DISS are studies on political, media and everyday discourses in the Federal Republic of Germany with a focus on gender, racism, migration and right-wing extremism.
Margret Jäger worked closely with her husband, the linguist Siegfried Jäger. Together they developed the research methodology of "critical discourse analysis" at the DISS, which is also known as the "Duisburg School" after its approach. It is a further development of the discourse theories of Michel Foucault, Jürgen Link and Siegfried Jäger.
