Doing relational negotiation through numbers
Conceptualizing numbers as a multimodal semiotic resource, the study takes a social-constructivist perspective to explore the interpersonal dimension of numerical claims in crisis communication. Bringing into dialog a pragmatic view of trust repair and a critical approach, the study analyzes a corpus of COVID-19 press briefings by the Thai government after three incidents of disease control failures and explicates the way numbers in various modes…

The findings rev…
