Abstract

Discussion on the relationship between language and violence is normally motivated by the will to controll, or at least, to anticipate the negative impac of symbolic violence to the mans' physical world. This seems to be reasonable whenever mass media is full of violence news, and unfortunately, also reported in the spirit of horror journalism. It has been forewarned that the presentation of violence in various media, does not only reflect what really happens in a society, but also tend to include violence elements that does not happen yet, especially if the media frequently holds up these values. As pointed out by Buchori (Kompas, May 10, 2001) there are two kinds of violence, physical and symbolic. In symbolic form, violence is not realized in aggressive behavior, but expressed in language praxis. This kind of violence will result in socio psychological injury. The victims of symbolic violence may feel threatened, insecure, or vulnerable. When the symbolic world is full of violence, the real world is likely to be perceived as an acceptable and effective means to realize man's desirable ends. The relationship between language and violence, however, remain questionable. By examination of what foucalt (1972) calls discursive structure, this article discusses the domains of its theoretical dispute, identifies the types of discourse, and tries to develop a tentative theoretical model.
