Description

Language is more than just communication; it is a natural resource tied to power and vulnerability. In Language, Mind, and Power: Why We Need Linguistic Equality, a linguist and philosopher examine the social and political implications of how we use language. This book explores how access to language affects human rights and serves as a tool to prevent oppression and violence. The text makes a strong case for linguistic equality, focusing on both equality among different languages and equality in the access to and knowledge of language use. This book is designed to be an accessible, interdisciplinary resource for those studying the connections between linguistics, philosophy, and social justice. Whether you are a student or an instructor, this work provides a deep look into why language is so powerful in our modern world. It is an essential addition to academic collections exploring the intersection of language, society, and human rights.
