The Language of Politics

This course examines linguistic approaches to studying politics, focusing on ordinary language use, speech acts, metaphor, linguistic relativity, and genealogy. These approaches share a recognition that language is constitutive of social reality?including the reality of politics. This starting point opens up exciting possibilities for analyzing politics through language and provides new insights into the language used to study politics.

Why are some countries wealthier and more prosperous than others? What is the role of the state in the economy, market, and development?
