Description

Explore a deep investigation into how language shapes political reality in Discourse and Democracy. Published by Routledge as part of the Critical Studies in Discourse series, this book provides a critical examination of how democracy is conceived and practiced within contemporary advanced liberal nations. Farrelly problematizes traditional views of democracy by combining close discourse analysis with critical theories of the State. The text addresses a central paradox: while liberal governments frequently use the concept of democracy to legitimize their political actions, there is a simultaneous weakening of actual democratic practice in the liberal world. This study builds upon the foundational work of Fairclough and other scholars to offer a rigorous look at the relationship between political language and state power. It is an essential resource for those studying political science, linguistics, and critical discourse analysis.
