A comprehensive approach to the study of discourse and conflict, this book explores how opposing communities construe discourse worlds which appear to reflect the existence of “paradoxical realities”. Adopting a novel method for the study of conflict, framed
in the cognitive linguistic tradition within Critical Discourse Studies, the book explains how conflict may be discursively created by relying on the study of four main construal operations. Grounded in examples specific to Northern Ireland, each chapter also
highlights how the method used could be applied to other conflictual contexts. In doing so, it demonstrates how language and representation in conflict situations may stem from a combination of different layers in conflictual relations and the existence of
both overt and covert conflict. It also provides a comprehensive list of linguistic cues upon which researchers can rely for analysing and explaining the role of discourse in conflictual situations. </div>

<b>Hong Kong Studies: The Culture and Politics of Realignment</b> <br>
<i>Magdalen Ki and Wayne Wen-chun Liang (eds.)</i> <br>
This interdisciplinary volume provides a multifaceted exploration of the kaleidoscopic transformation of Hong Kong. It examines the region's diverse historical developments, the challenges of digital surveillance, the impact of Orientalism, the power of individual
agency, minor literature, films, popular culture, and the trajectories of creative writing programs. Featuring contributors from various disciplines, including history, literature, and media studies, this volume offers scholarly insights into the dynamic relationships
among domestic helpers, immigrants, refugees, and Hongkongers. It presents an essential overview of the complex evolution of Hong Kong as a continually changing Special Administrative Region of China. </div>

The edited collection <i>Unlearning Languages That Control the Mind </i>(ULCM) is to be read as a continuous multi‑voiced work on what takes place when we forget that unlearning is a part of our existence as much as learning. As the world as we know it finds
itself at a critical juncture yet again, how we talk about the continuously amassing genocidal invasions and authoritarian occupations of our minds, thoughts, bodies and environments will affect how we experience, process and counter them on a day‑to‑day basis.
Based on this, ULCM offers its readers a singular interdisciplinary blueprint of the inner and outer workings of motivated language use when in service of mind engineering and engineered acting. As such, it is a valuable enabling resource for anyone looking
to identify and unlearn the languages that mask belief traps and cognitive distortions set up by various antisocial actors to keep our day‑to‑day cognition and acting confined to society as engineered laboratory. With its interdisciplinary breadth and engaging
multimodal content, this handbook breaks new grounds in actionable application of science as accessible community‑enabling tool for seeing through, i.e. dismantling belief traps and mental distortions that turn language use into mindbody abuse. </div>

Speech act theory has been foundational in establishing pragmatics as an independent field of inquiry; yet, recent pragmatic research appears to have drifted away from the theoretical investigation of speech acts. This Element explores the reasons why this
is so, focusing on the difference of perspective that emerges when the scope of the discipline is viewed through a narrow versus a broad lens. Following an overview of the initial exposition of speech act theory by Austin, it tracks its evolution, through
subsequent Searlean and Gricean elaborations, to the currently received view. This view is then found to have diverged substantially from Austin's original vision, largely due to its alignment with the narrow conception of pragmatics. Against this backdrop,
it is suggested that embracing the broad take on the discipline can allow for a reintegration of Austin's vision into the way we theorise about speech acts. </div>
