Defiant Discourse: Speech and Action in Grassroots Activism: The Politics of Language
Autor Tamar Katrielen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 oct 2020
Viewing activism as a globalized cultural formation that gives shape and meaning to grassroots organizations' struggles for political change, this book explores the relations between the cultural categories of speech and action as constructed and evaluated in activist contexts. It focuses on the specific empirical field of defiant discourse associated with the soldierly role in Israeli culture, using it to offer an in-depth exploration of the cultural underpinnings of defiant speech. Katriel interrogates discourse-centered activism as part of social movements' action repertoires on the one hand, and of the local cultural construction of speech cultures on the other.
This is critical reading for all students and scholars studying activism and social movements within linguistics, Middle Eastern studies, peace studies, and communication studies.

Recenzii
In Defiant Discourse Katriel unpacks the complex relationship between speech and action in a case study of anti-war activists in Israel. Along the way she gives us an emotionally powerful textual ethnography, a mini-history of Israeli politics, and a theoretically engaging account of the ways speech is and is not action.
