  The initiative of the Clear Writing Movement (Kimble 1992), targeting the democratization of communication by simplifying legal documents, has influenced the presentation of law globally. By uniting diverse philosophies of Plain Language and Easy-to-Read under the broad umbrella of text clarity and accessibility (Maaß 2020), this movement has particularly influenced the European Union’s linguistic policy (Foley 2002; Nerelius 2014; Seracini 2019). Notwithstanding this progress and the accelerated shift towards digital transformation during the Covid-19 pandemic, the European Union’s efforts to enhance its communication for vulnerable groups (European Union 2013) remains under-examined. This research, leveraging corpus linguistics and multimodal analysis, aims to systematically uncover foundational values and thematic clusters embedded in EU legal and policy documents related to the social inclusion and rights of vulnerable populations. It explores how these are dynamically communicated through easy-to-understand multimedia resources produced by Inclusion Europe and the European Commission (Bernabé 2020). Findings underscore the pivotal role of digital technology in revolutionizing the creation and interpretation of legal documents, reflecting the European Union’s proactive efforts to forge new avenues for multimodal legal communication marked by innovative signifying practices. The research concludes by emphasizing the socio-semiotic and context-specific dimensions of legal discourse. Far from being merely universal and abstract, it can be adapted and reshaped to reflect societal and political stances on regulated issues. This can foster a sense of belonging, empowerment, and inclusivity within vulnerable communities, while also nurturing broader societal cooperation and understanding.;
  DECIFRARE IL CAMBIAMENTO NEL LINGUAGGIO GIURIDICO DELL’UE: PRATICHE SIGNIFICATIVE PER UN INCLUSIONE DIGITALE DELLE PERSONE VULNERABILI   Sinopsi: Il Movimento globale per la Scrittura Chiara (Kimble 1992), incentrato sulla democratizzazione della comunicazione attraverso la semplificazione dei testi giuridici, ha significativamente influenzato la politica linguistica dell’Unione Europea (Foley 2002; Nerelius 2014; Seracini 2019). Attraverso l’utilizzo di metodi di linguistica dei corpora e di analisi multimodale, questo studio intende esplorare come i documenti giuridici istituzionali dell’UE, rivolti alle popolazioni vulnerabili (Unione Europea 2013), vengano trasformati in materiali facilmente accessibili e comprensibili attraverso l’adozione del Linguaggio Semplice (Maaß 2020). La ricerca mette in luce il ruolo cruciale della tecnologia digitale e gli sforzi proattivi dell’UE nell’innovare la comunicazione legale visuale, evidenziando una nicchia specifica non ancora pienamente esplorata: l’analisi della comunicazione multimodale del discorso giuridico. Tale esplorazione offre nuove prospettive sulle dinamiche socio-semiotiche e sul contesto specifico della comunicazione istituzionale, proponendo nuove vie per rafforzare l’inclusione e promuovere una cooperazione sociale più ampia. Emergono l’importanza di adattare e plasmare l’articolazione del diritto per rispondere efficacemente alle esigenze delle comunità vulnerabili e la necessità di un continuo impegno nella ricerca per sviluppare strategie comunicative che siano al contempo inclusive, precise e capaci di preservare l’integrità del linguaggio legale, nel rispetto dei valori fondamentali dell’Unione Europea.
