Hate Speech Acts: Hate, Disparagement and Discrimination from a Pragmalinguistic Perspective | Lecture

University guest lecture by Sebastian Zollner

Kurt-Wolters-Straße 5

Room 0020

 

Hate speech is omnipresent in digital and analog spaces and poses a serious threat to social cohesion and democratic values. Debates about it often focus on the derogatory content or legal boundaries. But how exactly does the linguistic production of hate and exclusion work? What actions are carried out when hate is "spoken"? What effects and impacts can be described? The (interactive) lecture shows how hate speech can be described and categorized based on criteria.
