Abstract

Politicians often use discourse to strengthen their positions, power and political ideologies. Critical Discourse Analysis investigates political discourse with the aim to reveal the connection between discourse and power (Fairclough, 2015). Using a Critical Discourse Analysis approach, this study compares the discursive strategies of Turkish presidents Mustafa Kemal Ataturk and Recep Tayyip Erdogan to highlight ideological differences in their language use through the Ideological Square Model. The Ideological Square Model indicated that Ataturk’s out-groups are other countries, while Erdogan extends the set of out-groups to include the media and his political opposition. Results demonstrate how ideologies and power relations are represented and created using various linguistic tools and in different ways in political speeches.
