This piece focuses on systematizing and exploring key issues for the study of how digitalization has impacted the concept, structure, and effects of discursive violence. By delving into the interplay between language, power struggles, and societal legitimization, the proposed discussion centers on the challenges posed by the digitalization of discourse, particularly within the context of inequalities. The examination of this specific issue is crucial for establishing a foundation for future research and interventions aimed at fostering healthier online communication.
