Description

In this course, we explored the general field of discourse ethics and the strategies of communicative action. Our goal was to problematize the norms that inform our ordinary and unreflective modes of interaction and to reflect on how we can transform our relational modes in a way that affords greater reciprocity. The third and final paper was a revision and expansion of the second essay assignment, which was a reflection on the experience of linguistic injury and possible modes of prevention.
