Sažetak
Based on a concrete research of public political discourse in Croatia (which produces fear by means of explicit and implicit speech of exclusion and often also hate speech) and the research of personal narratives of fear and anxiety of marginalized groups, this presentation aims at providing answers to three basic research questions. Firstly, how is hate narratively shaped, in public discourse and personal narratives, that is, how is hate affected by the narrative or how hates enables the narrative to be affective? Secondly, how the language of hate affects those who are designated as objects of hate? Thirdly, can and to what degree the subject of anxiety/fear (i.e. the explicit object of hate) narrate their experience and emotional response to hate? In order to examine the conditions of narrating fear and the effects produced by fear, I will primarily focus on the places of absence or reduction of verbalization – on the silence present in the contact zone between the terrifying, hating object and/or the terrified, anxious subject. I will be interested in the places in which hate generates fear and silence, the places in which hate erodes the subject’s need for intersubjectivity and leads to a deep sense of isolation and being silent. In other words, I will focus on the relationship between hate and the spatial reorganisation of fearing bodies, entailing not only an emotional experience and social exclusion, but sometimes also articulated resistance.
