집단 차별어의 의미론과 화용론

초록

This study adopts research methods from the philosophy of language to present the categorical properties of slurs and to compare and evaluate the various arguments raised by competing theories. Slurs belong to the subtypes of unethical or hate speech that have been studied in the literature, but they have distinctive characteristics that make them an independent category. First, slurs are characterized by the fact that it targets a homogeneous group of people. While profanity, which falls under the category of unethical expression, shows discrimination or hatred regardless of the individual or group, slurs are limited to a single group. Because the group they refer to is clear, slurs are paired with neutral correspondents that refer to the same audience. In addition, the negative attitudes contained in slurs are directed at a specific group, rather than at an individual. Other important characteristics of slurs include scopelessness, appropriation, and autonomy of attack. In this study, I examine the features, advantages, and disadvantages of various semantic, hybrid, and pragmatic approaches. The significance of this study is that it broadens the horizon of research on theoretical trends in the study of slurs based on the perspectives of linguistic philosophy and semantics.
