Corporate communications: accounting, linguistics and semiotics
No full textCorporations tend to make many communications about their activities, some of which are required by law and others of which are informative. Needless to say, these corporations wish to make their activities appear in the best possible light. They are therefore carefully crafted to this effect. It is therefore necessary to interpret these corporate communications to get behind the actual words and data reported in order to understand actual implications. Although technical expertise is required to understand the actual financial information being provided, these are always surrounded by words, pictures etc. and this chapter is intended to show how an understanding of appropriate linguistic concepts and the basics of semiotics enables a much fuller understanding of what is being communicated, regardless of the intentions of the corporate representatives creating the communication

They do so by redefining the pillars of sustainability and taking into account the combination of factors along with such issues as risk and uncertainty. This chapter therefore provides an introduction to the topic of the book and serves as a precursor to the ensuing chapters.</p
