Yemeni political discourse

By Hesham Ali Abdullah Hamzah

Given the major interest of discourse in political action, and especially during political unrest and crises, and given that any discursive production is governed by contextual conditions specific to it alone that distinguish it from others, this book aims to study the discursive specificities of Yemeni political communication via the analysis of a corpus composed of five speeches drawn from the General National Dialogue Congress, held in Sanaa, between March 18, 2013 and January 25, 2014. This Conference, moreover, represents a model of the status of Yemeni political discourse in the Post-Arab Spring era. This work constitutes a semio-linguistic study, essentially qualitative, taking as its general theoretical framework discourse analysis and mobilizing precisely theoretical approaches and models from enunciative linguistics, text semiotics, argumentation and textual semantics. The analytical approach focuses in particular on highlighting the specific features of discursive mechanisms in the communication of Yemeni political actors at three levels: enunciative, isotopic and argumentative.
