Living Speech: Resisting the Empire of Force
James Boyd White
Language is our key to imagining the world, others, and ourselves. Yet sometimes our ways of talking dehumanize others and trivialize human experience. In war other people are imagined as enemies to be killed. This book examines the ethics of human expression - in the law and in the rest of life.
