Résumé
The <i>Kôhô</i>, a monthly public information bulletin published by each city or prefecture in Japan, is a "description/categorizing device", which (re)constructs the concepts of "citizen" and "foreigner" in and by its discourse. By analyzing some articles in the <i>Kôhô of Yokohama City</i> from the point of view of linguistics based on ethnomethodology, we can consider the <i>Kôhô</i> as a paradoxical discourse: in order to announce the importance of "idealized" citizens (or native citizens) and foreigners living together, the <i>Kôhô of Yokohama City</i> has to begin by distinguishing the former from the latter. Through such a critical analysis of discourse, we will show that linguistics may contribute to reflections on the contemporary social issues.
