European integration discourse: problems of nomination and terminologization.

Abstract

The variation of names for European integration discourse in the field of scientific communication has been given greater weight in light of the ongoing dismantling of disciplinary boundaries between linguistics and social sciences. However, transdisciplinary advances of this kind inflict terminological difficulties and challenge the understanding of the notions labelled by the terms in question. This paper reveals the specificities of names for the notion of European integration discourse as they are used in the fields of humanities and social sciences. In particular, it singles out variants of the names under review from research publications written in Ukrainian and in English, examines their word-building, semantic and communicative features as well as provides reasons for the need to further terminologize the noun phrase European integration discourse and its near equivalent in Ukrainian yevrointehratsiynyj dyskurs in transdisciplinary-based discourse studies. To conclude, the structural variation of the noun phrases used to refer to European integration discourse in Ukrainian and English research publications, their contextual dependence and the lack of semantic unity coupled with the inconsistency in use on the part of a number of authors who indicate incompleteness in the formation of their terminological meanings. In addition, since the degree of terminologization of the noun phrases differs in Ukrainian and English, we assume that there is a certain struggle between these names for the opportunity to take the niche of the basic term in reference to European integration discourse in transdisciplinary research which would contribute to successful scientific communication. The establishment of typological features of European integration discourse in the field of discourse studies shall contribute to the further development of the noun phrases yevrointehratsiynyj dyskurs / European integration discourse as terms.
