O’Connell Abstract The following article applies both quantitative and qualitative methods of research to markers of perspective in a TV interview of Colin Powell on the CNN LARRY KING LIVE program from November 26, 2001. Perspective is well established in phenomenology and social psychology; its starting point is the conviction that every utterance expresses a point of view. From previous research, we accept the dialogical nature of perspective (see O'Connell & Kowal 1998) and further argue that perspective can be observed through measures of orality and literacy and through referencing (name and pronoun reference). The following measures of orality and literacy are examined: Back channeling hesitations, interruptions, contractions and elisions, first person singular pronominals, interjections and tag questions, and turn transitions from interviewer to interviewee and vice versa. We argue further that Colin Powell's perspective stresses the division between "we" and "they" with regard to the then imminent involvement in Iraq. Theoretical implications are discussed. Key words: Perspective, Television political interview, Dialogism, Orality/literacy, Referencing, The Middle East. Introduction This paper examines perspective in a television interview of Larry King with Colin Powell. Our perspectival approach assumes that every utterance expresses a point of view. The term is well established in phenomenology and social psychology. Earlier research on perspective and the political television interview emphasized the dialogic nature of perspective (see O’Connell & Kowal 1998). It also investigated indicators of perspective through markers of orality and literacy (see Alber, O’Connell, & Kowal 2002).

Policy shifts of the post-apartheid period not only necessitated new visions for the future but also new structures. The creation of a value-based new identity in foreign policy needed to be accompanied by a transformation of institutions relevant for the decision-making process in foreign policy. Looking at foreign policy in the era of President Mbeki, however, it becomes obvious that Max Weber’s observation that “in a modern state the actual ruler is necessarily and unavoidably the bureaucracy, since power is exercised neither through parliamentary speeches nor monarchical enumerations but through the routines of administration”,* no longer holds in the South African context.

  • Business Leaders Call for Dialogue to Address Global Talent Deficit at Davos
    PRESS RELEASE Business leaders call for dialogue to address global talent deficit at Davos • Public-private-academia collaboration required • Adaptability key skill for workers of the global economy London, UK, February 09 2006: Availability of global talent is emerging as the single most important factor for the long term sustainability of organizations. This opinion was voiced by global business leaders in a debate organized by Infosys Technologies at The World Economic Forum 2006. The leaders called for increased dialogue between public, private, academia and the community to prepare students for a multi-cultural and adaptable working environment. The group also deliberated on topics such as the rapidly globalizing world and the role India and China play. Participants in the debate included David Arkless, Manpower Inc, Suzanne Johnson, Goldman Sachs, Professor Jagdish Bhagwati, Columbia University, Tom Glocer, Reuters, Juan Somavia, International Labor Organization and Nandan Nilekani, Infosys Technologies. The discussion was moderated by Tim Sebastian, ex - Hard Talk presenter, BBC. “The world is in flux and it is impossible to forecast where a skills shortage will arise,” commented Professor Jagdish Bhagwati, Columbia University. “We need to do a better job of getting each stakeholder deeply involved to have a sense as to where society is going.” There was a strong acceptance that globalization is here and India and China are at the centre. Although these economies have doubled the global resource pool, competition has increased globally for jobs and significant investment is required to ensure high quality supply for the knowledge economy. Nandan Nilekani, CEO, Infosys stated, “In high growth economies companies have to take on the responsibility to invest in the education system and to provide long term training initiatives, as the external market is not delivering the right skills at the pace of change.” Some of the other challenges highlighted included the ageing population in the west.

  • Two Years of Euromaidan and Strategic Perspective of the Ukrainian Crisis
    „Ante Portas – Studia nad Bezpieczeństwem” 2015, nr 2(5) Vadim Volovoj Mykolas Romeris University TWO YEARS OF EUROMAIDAN AND STRATEGIC PERSPECTIVE OF THE UKRAINIAN CRISIS Summary: Question of the future of Ukraine is globally important and requires answer before it is closed in order to be ready for final result. Ukrainian crisis has an internal and external dimension. First part of the article analyzes the conse- quences of Euromaidan. Two years is a period of time, which makes possible some preliminary conclusions about the development of Ukraine. It can be said that political and economic system of the country is deteriorating. At the same time disappointment of the people about the course of the state is growing. Therefore theory of expectations and reality discrepancy can be applied to pre- dict the future of the today’s political regime in Kiev. The conclusion is that next social explosion (revolution) in Ukraine is highly possible in a short term, because unacceptable gap between expectations of Ukrainians and reality they live in has almost reached critical margin. Still situation in the country is strongly dependent on the position of two big external actors – the West (the United States and the European Union) and Russia. On the one hand, they sta- bilize the conflict – the West helps the government of Petro Poroshenko to sur- vive politically and economically and manages social protest potential in the state; Russia supports separatists of Donbass, but holds them from further mili- tary aggression, accentuating implementation of Minsk deal. On the other hand, Ukraine definitely is a hostage of “great geopolitical game“ between Washington, Brussels and Moscow and is not a subject, but object in it.
