Settler colonialism in vegetal worlds: Exploring progress and resilience at the margins of the Anthropocene
This paper explores the intersections of vegetal ontologies and contemporary practices of settler colonialism. The rising popularity of the concept of the Anthropocene fails to give account to nonhuman encounters that shape contemporary sensibilities. As such, this paper explores the role of vegetal being in settler colonial practices to disrupt the efficacy of anthropocentric representations of the world. In concepts like ‘invasive species,’ ‘bl…
Crypto-coin hierarchies: Social Contestation in Blockchain Networks
In this article, I discuss the role of crypto-coins (CCs) as an explicit response to the 2008 economic crisis. Drawing on networked social movement theory, I outline the tension between blockchain based currencies promoted as horizontal markets of technological innovation and the persistence of hierarchical authority within these networks. By examining the assumptions about authority and regulation that underpin the creation of CCs I argue that t…
Face(t)s of self and identity in interaction
Combining (meta-)theoretical extension and practical application of models of politeness, the collected works of this special edition promise to make a significant and lasting contribution to the field as well as signalling an important milestone in interactional and pragmatics research more generally. Focussed to a greater or lesser extent on the ‘impact’ of the research on the social, occupational, or legal world around us, the collected papers…
Racialized Hearts and Minds: Emotional Labor and Affective Leadership in the Teaching/Learning of IR
International relations (IR) is traditionally taught from a detached standpoint, as the international realm is conceptualized as distinct from normative, emotional, and embodied realities. We challenge this abstraction and focus on emotions to examine the intersection of race and international relations in how we teach and how students learn. Focusing on emotional labor, we maintain that students are taught and learn about the presence and absenc…
Revisiting Cyber-Diplomacy: Canada–China Relations Online
This paper situates Canada–China relations in the context of recent internet developments and debates about information and communication technologies (ICTs) infrastructure. I argue that protest events in Hong Kong surrounding the #occupycentral movement help us understand the tension between internet access, technological innovation and state centric forms of internet governance. By foregrounding the tension between the horizontal exchange of id…
Stylistics, speech acts and im/politeness theory
The study of stylistics can be an enigmatic, alluring and eclectic one. Stylistics, as originally envisaged and practiced, explored the linguistic construction of the style of writing of literary authors, ostensibly as an approach to ascertain whether it was possible to assign authorship definitively to unattributed or questionably attributed literary works. With regards to fictional characters, the style (or way) in which characters are describe…
Face in conflict
Studies of conflict and conflict resolution rarely concern themselves with the ways in which conflictive situations are triggered. Corsaro and Rizzo (1990), in considering interpersonal conflict and aggression do suggest that conflict begins with one antagonist taking challenging opposition to an ‘antecedent event’. Further, within linguistics, even those studies which take a perspective on the role of language in the genesis, conduct, and conseq…
Canadian Foreign Policy in an Era of New Constitutionalism
This article historically assesses Canada’s role in developing new constitutional mechanisms in the global economy. Drawing on the literatures of International Political Economy and analyses of Canadian foreign policy, a reassessment of Canada’s position in the international economic order is proposed. As a consequence of the geostrategic advantages afforded Canada between successive global hegemons, Canada’s path-dependent development has situat…

The “False Choice” of Liberal Democracy: Participatory Assessment in the International Relations Classroom
This article discusses practical forms of participatory assessment in the international relations (IR) classroom to examine the relationship between teaching and practicing democracy. These techniques include a series of exercises that allow students to explore the links between IR course content and classroom pedagogy. Drawing on the work of Slavoj Žižek, this study examines the ways in which participatory teaching methods challenge students to …
Introduction. Politeness research: Retrospect and prospect
Chapter 1. Introduction: Impoliteness and power in language
This collection of papers on impoliteness and power in language seeks to address the enormous imbalance that exists between academic interest in politeness phenomena as opposed to impoliteness phenomena.
Impoliteness in Interaction
This study concerns the nature of impoliteness in face-to-face spoken interaction. For more than three decades many pragmatic and sociolinguistic studies of interaction have considered politeness to be one central explanatory concept governing and underpinning face-to-face interaction. Politeness' "evil twin" impoliteness has been largely neglected until only very recently. This book, the first of its kind on the subject, considers the role that …
Chapter 6. Impoliteness in the struggle for power
Impoliteness in Language: Studies on its Interplay with Power in Theory and Practice
The volume addresses the enormous imbalance that exists between academic interest in politeness phenomena when compared to impoliteness phenomena. Researchers working with Brown and Levinson's ([1978] 1987) seminal work on politeness rarely focused explicitly on impoliteness. As a result, only one aspect of facework/relational work has been studied in detail. Next to this research desideratum, politeness research is on the move again, with altern…
Impoliteness: Eclecticism and Diaspora An introduction to the special edition
Impoliteness, preference organization and conducivity
Traditional approaches to politeness (e. g. Brown and Levinson 1987) and impoliteness (e. g. Culpeper 1996 and Lachenicht 1980), rarely consider the effects of their face-oriented strategies outside of the context of a single turn. While Culpeper, Bousfield and Wichmann (2003) do consider both how impoliteness pans out in extended discourse and the role of prosody in conveying impoliteness, what's not considered are the effects that manipulating …
