Description

At War with Words explores how language shapes global conflict in an era of non-state actors and mass violence. This collection brings together internationally recognised contributors who present original research and fresh perspectives on the pivotal roles that text and talk play in constructing enemy identities, justifying violence, and disseminating propaganda across diverse global contexts. From analysis of inflammatory radio rhetoric to examination of the semantic limitations in weapons vocabulary, this volume illuminates the intricate connections between linguistic expression and violent conflict, offering readers critical insights into how communication shapes the genesis, conduct and consequences of warfare in the modern world.
