Abstract

Following the 20th CPC National Congress, China has emphasized strengthening discourse systems, prompting deeper study of its political narratives. The study employs Critical Discourse Analysis and Sociocognitive Linguistics. Applied diachronically within a multicultural paradigm, it examines the evolution of Chinese political discourse and its interaction with global linguacultures. Despite initial borrowings, core Chinese political concepts gained unique meanings. The study identifies five key stages: emergence of concepts in the 1840s, formation of modern linguaculture in the early 20th century, rise of socialist discourse after 1949, incorporation of Chinese characteristics post-1978, and global promotion of the Chinese narrative. By revealing historical continuities in Chinese political discourse, these insights support policy formulation, advance discourse studies, enrich translation studies, and improve cross-cultural communication.

历时性的中国社会政治话语：中国政治语言文化演变的新视角

党的二十大以来，中国强调加强话语体系建设，推动了对中国政治叙事的深入研究。本研究运用了批评语篇分析和社会认知语言学。运用历时的多元文化范式，它考察了中国政治话语的演变及其与全球语言文化的相互作用。尽管最初是借用，但中国的核心政治概念获得了独特的含义。该研究确定了五个关键阶段：19世纪40年代概念的出现、20世纪初现代语言文化的形成、1949年后社会主义话语的兴起、1978年后中国特色的融入以及中国叙事在全球的推广。通过揭示中国政治话语的历史连续性，这些见解支持政策制定，推进话语研究，丰富翻译研究，促进跨文化交流。

期刊介绍： This journal is unique in that it provides a forum devoted to the interdisciplinary study of language and communication. The investigation of language and its communicational functions is treated as a concern shared in common by those working in applied linguistics, child development, cultural studies, discourse analysis, intellectual history, legal studies, language evolution, linguistic anthropology, linguistics, philosophy, the politics of language, pragmatics, psychology, rhetoric, semiotics, and sociolinguistics. The journal invites contributions which explore the implications of current research for establishing common theoretical frameworks within which findings from different areas of study may be accommodated and interrelated. By focusing attention on the many ways in which language is integrated with other forms of communicational activity and interactional behaviour, it is intended to encourage approaches to the study of language and communication which are not restricted by existing disciplinary boundaries.
