[Harold Schiffman]

Language of Aggression and Conflict

 Forwarded From:: languse at hum.aau.dk




Dear colleagues,



In the context of the *8th **International Conference on (Im)Politeness*,
which will be held at the University of Huddersfield (9 - 11 July 2014) (
http://www.hud.ac.uk/research/researchcentres/cipr/calls/8thinternationalconferenceonpoliteness.php),
we are organizing an invited panel on the language of aggression and
conflict.



Language studies have for years tended to concentrate on the analysis of
harmonious interactions. However, more recently, the study of acrimonious
interaction has started gathering momentum. We would like to invite
contributions that explore the language of aggression and conflict from
various perspectives, such as pragmatic, discursive, sociolinguistic,
cultural and cognitive, and focus on but are not restricted to the
following areas:



- Language aggression and conflict among family members

- Language aggression and conflict in work/academic settings

- Language aggression and conflict in political discourse

- Language aggression and conflict in the (digital) media.

- Language aggression and conflict in inter/cross cultural communication

- Language aggression and conflict in service encounters

- Language aggression, conflict and identity

- Gender differences in language aggression and conflict

- Emotional communication and conflict



Please send your (300-word) abstracts to the organizers:

Pilar Garcés Blitvich (pgblitvi at uncc.edu) and Maria Sifianou (
msifian at enl.uoa.gr)

by February 15, 2014. You will be notified of the reviewers' decision by
the end of February 2014.



Please disseminate this information among any colleagues you think might be
interested.



With best wishes,



Pilar and Maria
