Explain what semiotics are in relation to qualitative document analysis and provide examples for how semiotics can be used in the field of criminal justice/criminology
What will be an ideal response?
Students should explain that semiotics are a form of analysis that concentrates on comprehending and deciphering the meaning found in language and images, in the form of signs, as well as their complex interrelationships. Semiotics requires us to question commonsense assumptions and challenges us not to take for granted that there is an objective reality that stands apart from human creation and interpretation. Students should then discuss possible example of how semiotics can be used in criminal justice/ criminology.
