The political discourse of the Cold War period disintegrated and gave way to competing alternatives. The contributors to this book are linguists, discourse analysts and social scientists, from all corners of the continent, whose tools of analysis shed light on the crucial two years of transition during which political concepts and political interaction changed in dramatic and sometimes violent ways.Pragmatics & beyond ;new ser. 36.Discourse analysisPolitical aspectsEurope, EasternEurope, EasternPolitics and government1989-Discourse analysisPolitical aspects401/.41/0947Chilton Paul A(Paul Anthony)254099Ilinskii Mikhail Mikhailovich1757163Mey Jacob1599908MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824273103321Political discourse in transition in Europe, 1989-19914194861UNINA
