This book explores the linguistic patterns of conflict, crisis and
threat generation in Polish political rhetoric that have been at
the heart of state-level policies since the Law and Justice (PiS)
Party came to power in October 2015. Analysing a vast corpus of
speeches, statements and remarks by prominent Law and Justice Party
politicians, this book sheds light on internal parliamentary and
presidential discourse against opponents of the government, before
widening its lens to Poland's strained relations with the EU
regarding refugee distribution and immigration. Drawing on theories
from contemporary critical discourse studies and critical-cognitive
pragmatics, the book shows how the crisis, conflict and threat
elements in these discourses produce public coercion and strengthen
the Party's leadership. Piotr Cap extends his argument further to
examine discursive examples from Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria,
Austria, Italy and the UK, highlighting the correlation between the
Law and Justice Party and broader socio-political and rhetorical
trends in contemporary Europe. The result is an authoritative
panorama of the mutual dependencies and shared discursive
strategies of European right-wing groups.
