What role does language and communication play in conflict? Why do
people engage in or get drawn into quarrels? How can our awareness
of the social rules of language use prevent disputes? In this
illuminating and accessible guide, Karol Janicki takes the reader
on a tour through the field of conflict in language. Using
real-life examples, the book examines how language usage influences
conflict, and what people can do to avoid or resolve it. Language
and Conflict - Ends each chapter with a story that neatly
summarizes the key discussion points in a clear, digestible format
- Provides useful 'hands-on' tips and further reading
recommendations for those who want to explore the subject further.
This book is ideal reading for undergraduates studying discourse
analysis, language and communication, sociolinguistics, or applied
linguistics, and for general readers new to the subject of language
and conflict.
