«La parole manipulée» is the philosophical essay by Philippe Breton, published by La Découverte in paperback (220 pages, in French).
Breton analyzes how certain communication and manipulation techniques condition opinions and behaviors without the receiver perceiving it. With examples from politics, advertising, psychotherapy and the media, he questions the legitimacy of certain debate methods and proposes freedom of reception to restore the democratic function of speech.
Originally published in 1997, this 2004 edition belongs to the La Découverte/Poche collection (no. 88). In 1998 the work received the Prize for Moral Philosophy from the Academy of Moral and Political Sciences.
