- IN OTHER WORDS. A Contextualized Online Dictionary to Problematize Otherness.
This project develops an online dictionary of keywords which have been/are shaping the narratives of different forms of Otherness and are juxtaposed to some creative proposals to reverse such a perspective – e.g., visual elements, works of art, ads, poems, etc. Its aim is to develop and share critical and intercultural awareness to challenge the (re)production and the dissemination of dehumanizing, stigmatizing, and stereotyping language. It is structured as an online web application to be used for free in different social and educational contexts by students, teachers, scholars, educators, and activists. The project is both a product and a process, being conceived as a work-in-progress open to diverse contributions and aimed to bridge theoretical reflections and practice. Some of the keywords already identified are: age, borders, class, disability, foreignness, gender, invasion, knowledge, language, margins, multiculturalism, power, racism, stereotype, tolerance, tradition, violence, war, xenophobia. Other keyword/s can be proposed and added by contributors. There is also a special section for COVID-19 which analyses critically how, in different countries and different contexts, words have been used and mobilized to create specific narratives of the pandemic – and different forms of Otherness. The web application is still in a reserved area since the first keywords discussed are under final revision. As soon as the collaborative revision is completed, the web application will be visible online, disseminated in several international networks, and open to contributors. The project is being carried out by a consortium of researchers from Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, UK, Ukraine, Brazil. Member of the research team: Assistant professor Ioanna Vovou. -
