Description
Summary:This article tries to clearly analyze the way driven by the linguistic studies of language and discourse showing how much language has become an instrument of social inclusion and exclusion. Through this optic, in order to elucidate the route taken by language, the body of this work was built based on the 20th Century Linguistic study of Saussure, Chomsky e Bakhtin. It is important to call attention to the first linguists mentioned above as major proponents of the excluding face of language. It happened because they did not consider the importance of speech and other functions of language as well as the presence of the enunciator and the meaning of the subject. Bakhtin, on the other hand, is responsible for the inclusion, the presence of meanings, ideological, historical and social eminence; therefore, a place of interaction.
