| description | Applied linguistics has experienced significant growth in the domains of justice, security, and law. The development of forensic and legal linguistics varies across legal contexts and depends on the relationships between universities and institutions, prompting critical considerations within applied linguistics. This Special Issue gathers pertinent contributions on the current state of forensic linguistics, documents potential outcomes and contexts of study and collaboration, and emphasizes future challenges for the discipline. Researchers present recent advancements, particularly those linked to contemporary cases, explore new research avenues, and discuss the diversity of theories and methodologies employed. Various approaches—including corpus linguistics, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and terminology—are utilized, and examining their issues and implications from an applied perspective proves beneficial. This Special Issue encompasses a range of topics, including forensic linguistics, authorship attribution, language and law, language as evidence, courtroom and police interview discourses, and cyberviolence. |
