Beschreibung

The struggle over language has become the defining battleground of contemporary democracy. From debates on migration to conflicts over national identity, rhetoric has grown sharper, more divisive, and more destructive. Divided Voices is a timely analysis of how words—weaponized in the culture wars—reshape public opinion, fracture communities, and undermine the principles of democratic dialogue.

With a professional, evidence-driven approach, this book examines the roots of toxic discourse, the political strategies that amplify polarization, and the consequences for democratic institutions worldwide. At the same time, it offers a pathway forward: frameworks for rebuilding trust, fostering dialogue, and reclaiming language as a tool for constructive engagement.

Essential for professionals, academics, and policymakers, Divided Voices provides clarity and depth in a moment when public conversation itself is under siege.
