Abstract:
Now available in paperback!
Discourse since September 11, 2001 has constrained and shaped public
discussion and debate surrounding terrorism worldwide. Social actors in the
Americas, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and elsewhere employ the language
of the "war on terror" to explain, react to, justify and understand a broad
range of political, economic and social phenomena. Discourse, War and
Terrorism explores the discursive production of identities, the shaping of
ideologies, and the formation of collective understandings in response to
9/11 in the United States and around the world. At issue are how enemies
are defined and identified, how political leaders and citizens react, and
how members of societies understand their position in the world in relation
to terrorism. Contributors to this volume represent diverse sub-fields
involved in the critical study of language, including perspectives from
sociocultural linguistics, communication, media, cultural and political
studies.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
