Weasel words... saying nothing but doing a great deal of damage 14.06.2019
For this episode we had a bit of fun while inviting donations to keep 3CR going. We discussed how certain words and phrases can be used by those in power to consolidate and extend their power, and to legitimise the harms inflicted on people in the name of efficiency and profit-for-the-few. Ref: Watson, D. (2004) Weasel words. Sydney: Knopf.
Relationality - our modus vivendi... 07.06.2019

(2009) Relational being. Oxford: Oxford University Press. Spretnak, C. (2011) Relational reality. Topsham: Oxford University Press.
