The Force of Language illustrates how the philosophy of Language,
if differently conceived, can directly incorporate questions of
political thought and of emotionality, and offers the practical
case of defensive strategies against the abusive speech. This
follows a broad consideration of the inner voice or inner speech as
a test case for a new approach to language, in particular as a way
of radically rethinking the usual contrast between inner and outer
through furnishing an account of how we internalize speech. The
book's core offers a substantial critique of orthodox approaches to
the philosophy of language form Chomsky and others; drawing on
European political thought from Marx to Deleuze, it will move
beyond this inheritance to explain and demonstrate its fresh
conception of language at work.
