Marianne Høi Liisberg serves as an Assistant Professor at Aarhus University's School of Communication and Culture, specializing in French Business Communication within the Department of French. Her research bridges linguistic theory and real-world social conflicts, focusing on how semantic structures shape power dynamics in political discourse. Her core research examines polysemy, re-semantization, and discursive construction in social conflicts across French and Danish contexts. She investigates how language transforms political possibilities through semantic-discursive frameworks, particularly analyzing labor disputes and institutional conflicts. Methodologically, she integrates discourse theory with conflict semantics to decode power relations in contemporary political struggles. Analysis of her publications reveals consistent exploration of semantic dimensions in social conflicts, with recurring themes of polyphony, destabilizing interventions, and the construction of political 'impossibles'. Her work demonstrates interdisciplinary reach across linguistics, political science, and sociology, often using case studies from France and Denmark to develop broader theoretical frameworks for understanding conflict semantics. No scientific awards or honors were documented in the source material. Dr. Liisberg leads research initiatives examining semantic-discursive transformations in social conflicts and develops pedagogical resources for business communication education. While specific grant details remain unspecified, her projects demonstrate sustained focus on both theoretical discourse analysis and practical applications in higher education settings. Current information does not indicate leadership of dedicated laboratories or research teams, though her collaborative projects suggest active engagement with academic networks in Scandinavian and French discourse studies communities.
