<\/div>What I find exciting about this research initiative<\/h4>\n<\/div>The concept of social cohesion plays an important role both in everyday communication, mass media and online hate speech. It is important to understand how different members of society define the coherence of their lives, their resilience in times of crisis in order to grasp the mechanisms of discrimination, conspiracy phantasies and processes of ingroup-outgroup constructions. Investigating empirically the way how people interact, how they define themselves as members of a community helps to understand how civil society can exist and prevail as a democratic institution.<\/p>\n<\/div>
<\/div>What my discipline can contribute to this research initiative<\/h4>\n<\/div>Linguistics, and Cognitive linguistics, in particular, sees language as a street into the mind, into human cognition. Understanding the way how people communicate about themselves, their lives, their problems and feeling during a time of crisis helps to understand the symbiosis of language, emotion and cognition that fundamentally dominates all human cooperation. Coded emotions, textual metaphors and specific patterns of verbal evaluation play an essential role in this process.<\/p>\n<\/div>
