This book examines the relations between the material and political
bases of contentious politics and the construction, diffusion and
endurance of contentious language. Beginning with the language of
revolution developed from the seventeenth to the nineteenth
centuries, it examines contentious language at work, in gender and
race relations and in nationalist and ethnic movements. It closes
with an examination of emotions in contentious politics, reflecting
on the changes in political language since 9/11 and assessing the
impact of religion and recent innovations in electronic
communication on the language of politics.
