discourses and their access to the same trendsetting sources in relation to my research questions if the five-year timeframe allows it. 4.2. Timeframe By accepting a social constructivist approach and its focus on a historical context, I will set the timeframe for this study from 1995, the year the WTO came to life, and up until present state. This way, I will regard the naturalisation as a relatively long process within the timeframe, i.e. an ideology which has been legitimised, reproduced and gained a footing over the years. 4.3. Delimitation of data Moreover, I will make a topic oriented delimitation of my data material. By virtue of the social constructivist approach and my preliminary focus on Wodak's historically oriented CDA, I will focus on data which endorse the neoliberal discourse by making references pertaining to classical economic thinking, i.e. the topics free trade versus protectionism, trade creating growth, prosperity and harmony among nations combined with a focus on what the neoliberal discourse has coined as positive outcomes and benefits of free trade. I have chosen this topic oriented delimitation based on preliminary research indicating that this focus has been particularly determinant. 4.4. The critical perspective By embodying my particular focus, I will not focus on the actual consumption process. I do see the limitation in this approach, and, if one was to approach this process of acceptance, it would involve interviews and further investigation. However, at present state, I do not see this process as realistic within the timeframe. 5. Contribution to scientific development and position in the research programme By combining social and humanistic studies alike, this study embodies the focus areas and research frames of the Programme. Through this interdisciplinary focus of CDA, the main purpose of the study is to shed light on
