This book focuses on values and valuation in the State of the Union
addresses delivered by the former U.S. President George W. Bush.
What values are invoked in the speeches? How are these values
constructed? How can they be classified? How are particular
construals of values conducive to the actions the speaker wants to
legitimize? Drawing on Critical Discourse Studies, the book
examines pragmalinguistic tools applied in political
legitimization, such as proximization, metaphor or assertion. The
analysis reveals three ideological values used in the context of
foreign policy making: security, terrorism and freedom.
