The book critically explores values in the State of the Union addresses delivered by George W. Bush. It examines pragmalinguistic tools applied in political legitimization, such as proximization, metaphor or assertion. The analysis reveals that prevalent are three values, invoked in the context of foreign policy: security, terrorism and freedom.
