\n\nWords matter. The language we use shapes our political discourse and can be used both to liberate and to oppress. New words and concepts have helped galvanise positive political change whilst slurs\, dog whistles and other negative linguistic devices have contributed and continue to contribute to the existence of discrimination. Our language does not exist in an ethical\, social or political vacuum.
\nThe Vienna Forum for Analytic Philosophy (WFAP) welcomes submissions of abstracts for its 10th annual graduate conference: Just Saying? On the Social and Political implications of Language and its Philosophy. The conference will take place either virtually or in hybrid format from the 5th to the 7th of July.
\nWe welcome submissions on any topic related to our theme including but not limited to:
\nThe Ethics of Language
\nHermeneutical Injustice
\nThe Philosophy of Language with respect to marginalised groups (e.g. gender\, race\, sexuality or ability and language)
\nHate Speech (e.g. slurs and dog whistles)
\nThe semantics and pragmatics of value-laden language.
\nSubmission information:

\nCovid statement: The conference will either take place virtually or in a hybrid format\, depending on how the situation develops across Europe.
