2. Swiss-AL Corpora#

The Swiss-AL corpus collection is designed to support diverse discourse-analytical research. It is systematically organized into four corpus types: organizational, journalistic, parliamentary and right-wing extremist.

Source categories in Swiss-AL

💡 Note that:

  • You have to log in and create a project in order to have access all Swiss-AL corpora. Otherwise, you will only be able to access the demo corpora.

  • When referring to Swiss-AL corpora, please use the citation format proposed by SWISSUbase. If the corpus you are using is not yet registered in SWISSUbase, please use the same citation format but omit the reference to LaRS and add a reference to the Swiss-AL Platform (swiss-al.zhaw.ch).


2.1. Organizational Corpora#

Organizational corpora consist of carefully selected web data (news articles, press releases, and blog posts) from a broad range of actors of Swiss public communication across key societal sectors.

  • Politics → federal and cantonal governments, as well as political parties represented in the Swiss Parliament.

  • Industry → major trade associations, business organizations, and labor unions.

  • Science → publications from Swiss universities and research institutions.

  • Civil Society → NGOs and activist organizations, such as environmental groups.

Example Research Question:

  • When did Swiss-German cantons begin addressing topic X?

2.2. Journalistic Corpora#

Journalistic corpora focus on mass media communication, comprising Switzerland’s major news outlets. This dataset is particularly useful for analyzing the role of the media in shaping public discourse. Journalistic corpora include national and regional newspapers from publishers such as Tamedia and the NZZ Group provided by Schweizer Mediendatenbank (SMD) via Swissdox@LiRi. A small selection of sources is also crawled by the Swiss-AL Team.

Example Research Question:

  • How has media coverage of climate change evolved in Swiss newspapers over the past decade?

2.7. Corpus Update Frequency#

Annually updated corpora:

  • Organizational

  • Journalistic


2.8. Creating Subcorpora#

Users can create their own subcorpora by selecting Create custom corpus and using the Wizard to select categories, time span and sources. You can also create corpora based on a specific lemma (keyword): for example, for creating a subcorpus containing the word Corona enter this term as keyword.

💡 Note that:

  • Please specify only one-word keywords, since multiword expressions are not supported as keywords in corpus creation.

  • The keyword filtering in subcorpus creation is case-insensitive and searches for all word forms associated with the paradigm of the searched word (exactly as in Quick Search).

  • When entering multiple keywords and selecting the option ANY, you will create a subcorpus containing documents that include any of the specified keywords (logical operator: OR).

  • When entering multiple keywords and selecting the option ALL, you will create a subcorpus containing documents that include all of the specified keywords (logical operator: AND).
