Abstract

In this article, my aim is to study how objects of discourse are co-constructed in the political broadcast interview from two perspectives: the dialogical that is how the other-orientation emerges in the interview, and the sociopragmatic.Objects of discourse emerge in discursive practices in a sociocultural context. They are taken up and transformed in different social contexts. In this article, they consist of issues or topics in political, social or media life which are constantly reproduced in different media texts. In the interview, the objects of discourse are recontextualized by the interviewer and it is the politician who is invited to state an opinion, offer an evaluation, give a piece of information, etc. regarding them. Their construction is regulated by the different goals of the speakers in this genre in mediating political or social information to the public.
