RESEARCH OVERVIEW
Abstract
The extralinguistic aspects of Uzbek political speech are investigated in this paper together with the ways in which social, historical, and cultural factors affect the political message delivery. The research shows how important these extralinguistic elements—such as gestures, facial expressions, and cultural references—are in establishing authority, changing public opinion, and preserving cultural values by contrasting Uzbek political communication with its English counterpart. Based on qualitative content analysis of eminent speeches given by political leaders from Uzbek and English-speaking backgrounds, the study offers closer understanding of how context shapes political language and efficacy.
