We believe that this project has only scratched the surface of the issue of offensive humour in interaction.
Our first immediate goal is to apply for further funding that will allow us to bring together researchers from all involved areas: pragmatics, humour and comedy studies, Critical Discourse Studies, sociology and politics. So watch this space!
Over the last two years, we have established a wide array of UK-based and international connections, joining existing networks but also creating new ones. Our international connections include:
Forum for Humor and the Law (ForHum)
Humour and Conflict in the Digital Age (HACIDA)
