Apologie de la polémique
Abstract
Que nous apprennent les débats sur le statut des femmes, ou encore sur les bonus en temps de crise ? À travers de tels cas de figure, cet ouvrage montre que la polémique publique tant dépréciée joue un rôle capital dans nos démocraties pluralistes. Elle n’est pas un désordre de la communication, mais une modalité argumentative. Axée sur l’opposition irréductible, la division en groupes antagonistes et le discrédit de l’autre, elle exacerbe les différends. Cependant, la gestion du conflit dans le dissensus crée du lien social et remplit d’importantes fonctions identitaires, protestataires, pragmatiques, etc. Mais surtout, la polémique qui se construit dans la circulation des discours autorise une coexistence dans le dissensus. Celle-ci est indispensable dans la démocratie pluraliste où le conflit est de règle et le triomphe de l’accord illusoire. Soutenu par des analyses concrètes et encadré par une réflexion théorique, ce livre, rédigé par l’auteur de L’argumentation dans le discours et de La présentation de soi, éclaire l’un des aspects essentiels de notre modernité.

“This demonstrates that conflicting discourses exist if and only if there is an opponent that delimits and frames them.”

In the citing paper
“This is a zero-sum logic where only one's own point of view must be imposed, while that of the adversary must be disqualified, delegitimized, and erased.”

In the citing paper
“This implies that the agonistic debate within the framework of an ideological opposition moves to another plane, where the contender is transformed into an antagonist whose position and existence is excluded.”

In the citing paper
“In this regrouping by identification, adversaries are disqualified to strengthen the identity of the group; the opponent is invalidated or presented pejoratively; and denigration maneuvers are used to discredit them and pigeonhole them as biased and ill-intentioned.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“Authors such as Amossy (2014), Charaudeau (2005), and Mouffe (2011, 2014) have described this strategy of disqualifying the adversary or constructing the enemy as one of the main causes of the current global crisis of democracy.”

In the citing paper
“This is how enemy camps are established, more as a relational phenomenon than as an abstract division of antagonistic theses.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“The adversary is used and referred to solely to transform them into a negative version and the nemesis of one's own discourse.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“The author posits that controversy gives rise to a two-pole discursive scenario, which is reduced to two semantic categories distributed in a binary opposition.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“Thus, in each debate, each party incorporates the opposing discourse into their own, inverting its sense and meaning.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“Amossy (2014) links political polarization with polemical discourse, characterized by three modes of violent conflict management: dichotomization, polarization, and disqualification of the other.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“It does not imply the disqualification, delegitimization, or elimination (either symbolic or real) of the adversary.”
From La ideología política, las creencias sociales y la polarización como obstáculos psicosociales para la democracia y la paz en Colombia, 2016-2020 (2024) · cites this paper as Amossy, 2014
In the citing paper
“This negative reduction of conflict (Spillmann & Spilhminn, 1991) is expressed at the discursive level in dichotomization (Amossy, 2014), that is, in the use of antagonistic semantic categories that radicalize and divide society into irreconcilable poles.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
