Abstract

The social actor is defined through the use of language, so to speak, creates portions of the world in which to identify and act, words are not empty labels or containers, but define, denote relationships with others. There is a dynamism between the use of language and society, both in the sense of the action of society and of social facts about language, both in the opposite sense, of the action of language on society and on social facts. In this sense the relationship between language and speaker is a complementary and dialogic type of link that can be revealed or manifested also as a conflicting action, since the language creates worlds of meaning that can also impose itself on the speaker distorting the reality. The article highlights how in the specific case of Hate speech, the ana-lysis cannot focus only on the final outcome of the offensive linguistic action, but must break down the entire system of choices that guide the linguistic act.
