Description

Explore the complex relationship between language and authority in Courtroom Talk and Neocolonial Control. This academic work, part of the Language, Power and Social Process (LPSP) series, provides a deep investigation into how legal communication affects social outcomes. Through a detailed study of the cross-examination of three Australian Aboriginal boys, the text examines a specific legal case involving six police officers charged with abduction. By applying critical sociolinguistic analysis, the book reveals how courtroom talk and specific assumptions about language function can legitimize neocolonial control over Indigenous populations. This text is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of linguistics, law, and social justice, offering a clear look at how power operates within legal structures.
