This comprehensive book delves into a critical examination of languages that play pivotal roles in describing, perpetuating, responding to, and resisting economic crises. Unlike many other volumes on economic crises, which primarily rely on economistic explanations or offer policy suggestions for their resolution, this collection takes a unique approach by exploring the diverse linguistic strategies employed to grapple with complex economic phenomena.
The chapters within this volume delve into a wide range of connections between language and crises, encompassing historical metaphors used to describe economic downturns, the languages employed during periods of crises and economic struggles, as well as the popular responses to these challenges, including political manifestations and worker-organized enterprises. Additionally, the book considers the implications for democratic participation and gender relations, as well as the lack of language to adequately express economic experiences among certain groups.
Featuring essays from seven contributors hailing from five different countries, this collection possesses global relevance in a time characterized by economic volatility and upheaval. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and individuals interested in the politics of language, economic discourse, and the epistemological complexities of economic crises.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Cultural Economy, further enhancing its significance and impact in the field.
