Book launch

On May 26th, 2021, at 10 a.m., at the opening session of our event, we launched the book “Discurso e (pós)Verdade” (“Discourse and (Post)Truth”), a topic we covered at the V CIAD – International Colloquium on Discourse Analysis, held in 2018 at UFSCar. We hope you have shared this very special occasion with us!

There are different and fundamental relationships between discourse and truths. The multiple relationships between the order of discourse and truths, whether they are affirmed outright, criticized or partially adhered to, or rejected outright, can both liberate and subject. They can be inscribed in conservative positions and give rise to reactionary and even fascist discourses, but they can also derive from progressive positions and produce emancipatory thoughts, acts and words. This is what this book is about, with the participation of recognized researchers from different areas and fields, who have approached this subject from specific points of view.
