Abstract

Political discourse analysis (PDA) is an inter-and multidisciplinary research that focuses on the linguistic and discursive dimensions of political text and talk and on the political nature of the discursive practice. It indicates unity of communicative intentions which are always intentional and the public speaker has three primary goals when delivering his message: to inform, trigger and arouse an emotional response and to persuade his audience. Hence, the discourse analysis cannot operate solely within a linguistic and discursive framework and must draw upon methods, frameworks of other disciplines to analyze adequately its object of study. It is multidisciplinary as it brings together multiple disciplines to investigate socio-political issues and phenomena pertinent to various areas of scholarship. Political discourse is also regarded as a process of real-life verbal communication where the systemic characteristics of language, the degree of spontaneity and completeness, thematic coherence and clarity of ideas are of special importance.
