Abstract
This paper outlines the basic theoretical assumptions of language analysis and then proposed a new approach called discourse analysis. The theoretical foundations of discourse analysis are Wittgenstein's theory of language games and Harbermas' social action types. It has potential applications to information requirements analysis and research in organisational theory.
