This paper compares participants in the process of imposing obligation in the press release of Greenpeace Korea and Greenpeace UK. Since deontic modal expressions in discourse provoke assumptions about social positions between interlocutors, it has been argued that there are two participants in this process: ‘the obligation-imposer’ and ‘the obligation-imposed’(Kim and Thompson, 2010). The present analysis shows that there are roughly four different types of entities functioning as these two participants: environmental NGOs, nations(or governments), ordinary people, and companies. In addition, it is found that each corpus has its own preferred entity for the two participants. In line with the premise of critical discourse analysis, it can be argued that these contrasting results recontextualize the situations of how environmental campaigns are differently undertook in both discourse communities.
