Abstract:

In this edited volume, language weaponization — or the weaponization
of language — is used to describe the process in which words,
discourse, and language in any form can be used to inflict harm on
others. The term harm is of vital importance because it refers to how
specific groups of people are affected by ideologies and practices
that normalize inequity and injustice in their environments. The
contributions in this book explore how language ideologies, practices,
and policies can physically, emotionally, socially, and/or
economically disadvantage or harm minoritized individuals, as well as
their cultures and languages.

Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics
