翻译后摘要:在这篇文章中,我们将分析的社会和作者的假设通知的过程和功能,在美国军队的写作。从语境和基于社会的语言理论的角度来看,军队对知识产权的理解不同于学校(包括军事院校)通常教授的知识产权,也不同于公众对作者身份的看法。我们将简要描述用于编写诸如现场手册、标准操作程序(SOP)和政策等文档的过程-这些文本经常被回收、重新利用和挪用,而不需要个人作者归属。在我们的分析中,我们将表明,可接受的不归属是由通信的目的来证明的;作者将从文本中获得什么(如果有的话),物质或名誉;以及文本如何有助于共同目标(Adler-Kassner,安森,和霍华德,2008)。我们对陆军中产生的大量常规文本的分析表明,陆军对归因和来源使用的高度功能性观点,归因的存在或不存在与道德行为相比,更重要的是有效和高效地完成工作,以支持仔细阐述的目标。
Abstract : In this article, we will analyze the social and authorial assumptions informing the processes and functions of writing in the U.S. Army. From the perspective of contextually and socially based theories of language, understandings of intellectual property in the Army differ from those commonly taught in the schools (including military academies) and generally assumed in public conceptions of authorship. We will briefly describe the processes used to write such documents as field manuals, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and policies--texts that are often recycled, repurposed, and appropriated without the need for individual authorial attribution. In our analysis, we will show that the acceptable absence of attribution is justified by the purpose of the communication; what (if anything) the author will receive, materially or reputationally, from the text; and how the text contributes to communal goals (Adler-Kassner, Anson, & Howard, 2008). Our analysis of much of the routine text produced in the Army demonstrates its highly functional view of attribution and source use, where the presence or absence of attribution is equated less with moral behavior than with getting jobs done effectively and efficiently in support of carefully articulated goals.
