Linguostylistic Peculiarities of Political Journalism on the Example of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's Book “A Fairer World is Possible!”

This article analyzes the linguo-stylistic features of political journalism on the example of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's book “A Fairer World is Possible!”. The study reveals that the style of presentation in this book has expressiveness and detailing, which makes the text more attractive to readers. Erdoğan uses exclamations and rhetorical questions, which makes his speech dynamic and allows him to emphasize important points. The images used by the president are based on folkloric and romantic paradigms, making them accessible and emotionally rich. Erdoğan in his book does not seek to simply win over the audience, but rather offers important and acceptable solutions to the pressing international problems of the early twenties of the twenty-first century. The structure of the text is simple, but with certain metaphorical images and political emphases, which helps convince readers of the validity of the proposed solutions. An important finding of the article is that Erdoğan, while avoiding complex structure and religiously colored vocabulary, uses moderate expressiveness and reductionism in proposing concrete measures to harmonize world political environment overloaded with conflicts. This study contributes to the understanding of the structure and stylistics of political publicity as well as analyzing the communicative strategies of political leaders in Turkey. The results of this study are of interest to researchers in political rhetoric, linguistics and international relations.
