Language and Politics

John E. Joseph

"John Joseph brings together issues that are often kept apart, draws on insights from a range of disciplines and thinkers, and offers perspectives on such topical questions as linguistic imperialism and the global spread of English, hate speech and politically correct language, and the 'manufacture of consent' through political propaganda." — Deborah Cameron, University of Oxford
