Tiivistelmä: | Despite growing interest in the discursive aspects of strategy, few studies have examined strategy texts and their power effects in detail. The article draws from Critical Discourse Analysis to better understand the might of strategic plans as a directive genre. Using empirical analysis, the creation of the official strategic plan of the City of Lahti in Finland is examined. As a result of the inductive analysis, five central discursive features of this plan are identified: self-authorization, special terminology, discursive innovation, forced consensus and deonticity. It is argued that these features can, with due caution, be generalized and formed as distinctive features of the strategy genre. |
