Wielki łańcuch bytu – reaktywacja. Język opresji jako zagrożenie dla zrównoważonego rozwoju

Języki publikacji

Abstrakty

With far right-wing ideologies coming to prominence in both Europe and the USA, we should ask to what extent the process is stimulated by the right-wing media whose discourse is based on Strict Father morality, grounded in the ancient concept of the Great Chain of Being. The application of such morality in politics and politically-biased media leads to the emergence of language of oppression, with the Other being stigmatised just for being the Other. This is seen as a threat to sustainable development, which aims at reducing inequalities based on disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion.

Nawrót popularności ideologii skrajnie prawicowych po obu stronach Atlantyku skłania do refleksji nad tym, w jakim stopniu proces ten jest stymulowany przez dyskurs prawicowych mediów, których oceny oparte są w dużej mierze na moralności Surowego Ojca. Ideologia ta ma korzenie w starożytnej koncepcji Wielkiego Łańcucha Bytu, na którym miała opierać się wszelka hierarchizacja świata. Zastosowanie takiej moralności w polityce i politycznie nastawionym dyskursie prowadzi do powstania języka opresji, skierowanego przeciwko Innemu, i stanowi zagrożenie dla idei zrównoważonego rozwoju.
