Language is more than a tool for communication?it is also a mechanism through which social hierarchies, ideologies, and authority are constructed and maintained. Understanding this dynamic helps reveal how discourse can empower or marginalize groups within society. Language and Power Relations explores the intersection of linguistics, politics, and social theory, examining how language reflects and reinforces power structures. The book discusses critical discourse analysis, language policy, and media representation. It also addresses issues of gender, race, and institutional authority in communication. By combining theoretical insights with realworld examples, it provides a framework for understanding how linguistic choices shape power and resistance in everyday life.
