Blair’s contribution to elaborating a new ‘doctrine of international community’

This paper examines the recent move towards a new regime of international relations and international security from a discourse analytical perspective, focusing on speeches by Tony Blair. I shall discuss how Blair has contributed to the emergence of a new hegemonic discourse of international relations and international security in speeches given between 2000 and 2003.

Keywords: discourse, emergence, hegemony, international community, texturing
