Sažetak
The field of public discourse is layered and heterogenous. Its dynamics shifts with every new public speech act. This paper analyses the discourse strategies employed by socially marginal interest groups (political and civil acitivists, NGOs, independent media, student organizations etc.) which enhance their subversive power The subversive discourse of the political Other (ethnical and sexual minorities, student body, workers, civil organizations) uses a number of rhetorical devices (paraphrase, parody, symbolism) to expose the hegemonial nature of the dominant discourse and turn its symbolic power against it. Based on the methodology of critical stylistics as well as critical discourse analysis, the paper attempts to expose the relationship between the dominant discourses of power (political discourse, discourse of administration, discourse of capitalism and globalization etc.) and the subversive speech genres (graffiti, slogans, pamphlets) as interdependant.
