Description

Explore the complex relationship between language and social power in this essential academic study. Linguistic Stereotyping and Minority Groups in Japan serves as the first full-length English study to examine the use of discriminatory language within Japanese society. This book addresses the ongoing debate regarding the public use of language that is considered demeaning to specific groups. It examines the tension between minority rights and freedom of speech, providing a new dimension to the study of language and society. By looking at how language functions in social hierarchies, the text reveals the dissent that exists beneath the officially promoted ideology of a harmonious Japanese society. Part of the Routledge Contemporary Japan Series, this work offers a revealing examination of how linguistic choices impact social dynamics. It is an important resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in Japanese linguistics, sociology, and the study of minority rights.
