Slippery Words explores how language subtly shapes societal decline by influencing our actions and perspectives. It examines how seemingly small changes in terminology can create "slippery slopes," leading to negative outcomes in areas from public policy to individual ethics. The book argues that recognizing the potential for linguistic manipulation is key to reversing these trends.
The book delves into three core areas: the manipulation of language in political discourse, the erosion of ethical standards, and the unintended consequences of well-intentioned interventions. For example, the strategic framing of issues by political actors can significantly sway public opinion. Using case studies and historical examples, Slippery Words offers critical analysis of how rhetoric and propaganda impact our world.
The book progresses systematically, first introducing the concept of slippery slope arguments, then dedicating sections to each of the core topics. By the conclusion, readers are equipped with strategies for identifying and mitigating the effects of manipulative language in their own lives and communities. This approach blends rhetorical analysis, social scientific research, and historical context to empower readers to think critically and make responsible decisions.
