| Summary: | The object of the investigation is modern political discourse. The research is focused on the sociological, cultural, epistemological and linguistic bases of formation of political correctness in the modern political discourse. It is proved that the sociological base of the formation of political correctness in the political discourse is determined by the process of social development. The basis of political correctness formation is represented by the opposition "us / them" in political discourse. The most important role in the political discourse is played by an epistemological, cognitive opposition "true / false", where the truth is an adequate reflection of the objective reality of the knower, and the lie is a deliberate substitution of the truth by a misconception. The linguistic bases of formation of political correctness are based on the interpretation of the bilateral nature of the linguistic sign that performs a crucial function of designation. The asymmetric duality of the linguistic sign, as well as the arbitrary nature of the relationship of the signified and the signifier allows the ideologists of political correctness to create different names for one and the same extra-linguistic content, or denotation, that is socially unacceptable, for some reason. |
