국문 초록

Peace linguistics (PL) intersects the fields of peace studies and applied linguistics, and peace linguists have recently begun to research, raise awareness about, advocate for, and teach linguistic aspects of peace. However, PL is still emerging. With this paper, we attempt an explicit rapprochement between the disciplinary fields by uniting Galtung’s work on peace and violence with linguistics. We begin by defining key concepts related to applied linguistics and peace studies and contributing a holistic model of peace, which serves to situate approaches to comprehensive PL, positive and negative, along a continuum. We then expand Galtung’s typology of violence to propose a corresponding typology of peace, linking his types of violence to peace equivalents as well as linguistic phenomena. For illustrative purposes, we next provide examples of positive and negative PL activities corresponding with linguistic phenomena. In doing so, we highlight connections with other disciplines, showcasing the transdisciplinary nature of this field. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of the value of these contributions while acknowledging the limitations of this theoretical paper and propose directions for future research. In trying to avoid a violentology perspective, this paper also foregrounds peace, both in word and deed.
