Language of War - Ukraine

Kyiv鈥檚 answer to the Kremlin鈥檚 warspeak.

Kyiv鈥檚 answer to the Kremlin鈥檚 warspeak. The linguistic tug of war between Russia and Ukraine gets powered by collective historic memory. We looked at Russia鈥檚 case in part one of this miniseries, to see through the Kremlin鈥檚 war propaganda: its purpose and linguistic building blocks. In this episode, we turn to the Ukrainian side, and here we find that language itself is at the heart of this conflict, inducing Ukraine鈥檚 鈥渓inguistic decolonisation鈥.
