Abstract:

Through critical discourse analysis (CDA) and the discourse-historical
approach (DHA), this book probes into political discourse imbued with
historical legacies, with particular focus on explicating the structure and
function of AKP stories and its relationship with Turkish politics. It offers
an alternative way of reading the transformation in such politics via the
pattern of "deconstruction", "reconstruction", and "policymaking". It
systematically delineates how President R. Tayyip Erdoğan’s political
discourse evokes dialog that embodies the grand legacy of history,
deconstructs the mentality of the opposition, reconstructs an alternative
dialog, and converts discourse into policy. The book breaks a new ground by
introducing a theoretical framework on the relationship between political
discourse and policy. It traces how political stories sourced largely by
appropriated historical themes and figures enable rhetoricians to weave simple
yet good and influential stories to legitimize potential political action, by
beguiling people’s hearts and minds.
