It examines the functions of the categories ‘strength’ and ‘weakness’ in discursive representations of states as political actors. The research draws on assumptions of social constructionism and CDA. The data include recent speeches by Russian and Polish Ministers of Foreign Affairs. The paper argues that the opposition ‘strength vs. weakness’ is essential in the construction of IR in discourse. We focus on how nation states and their qualities are represented in foreign policy discourse, and which of these qualities conceptualise the categories of strength and weakness. We demonstrate that the two categories constitute a relational pair; however, the category of strength is expressed more explicitly than that of ‘weakness’, and the axiological charge of ‘strength’ changes depending on the actor that it represents. An array of linguistic tools is employed in constructing the opposition, and, consequentially, the IR between the political actors. The paper suggests that social actors and their qualities can be viewed as social categories that are perpetually constructed and re-constructed in discourse. The research develops the theory of discourse and demonstrates how discourse analysis contributes to the study of social practices and helps interpret current social phenomena.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Настоящая статья подготовлена в рамках реализации проекта, направленного на выявление дискурсивных механизмов конструирования межнациональных отношений. Цель данной части исследования состоит в том, чтобы определить функциональную ценность категорий «сила» и «слабость» в дискурсивных репрезентациях политических акторов-государств. Работа базируется на положениях социального конструкционизма и критическом дискурс-анализе. Материалом исследования послужили выступления глав внешнеполитических ведомств России и Польши. Результаты анализа показали, что оппозиция «сила vs. слабость» играет существенную роль в конструировании межнациональных отношений во внешнеполитических практиках. Мы рассматриваем репрезентации национальных государств и их качеств в политическом дискурсе, а также выявляем, какие качества концептуализируют «силу» и «слабость». Анализ показывает, что две рассматриваемые категории состоят в отношениях взаимообусловленности, однако «сила» получает более эксплицитное выражение, чем «слабость», а аксиологическая нагрузка «силы» меняется в зависимости от репрезентируемого актора. Целый ряд языковых средств задействован в конструировании оппозиции и, как следствие, межнациональных отношений между политическими акторами. Из анализа следует, что социальные акторы и их качества можно рассматривать как социальные категории, которые находятся в состоянии постоянного конструирования и ре-конструирования. Проведенное исследование развивает теорию дискурса, а также наглядно демонстрирует, как дискурсивный подход обогащает изучение социальных практик и дает ключ к пониманию происходящих социальных процессов.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>construction</kwd><kwd>foreign policy discourse</kwd><kwd>international relations</kwd><kwd>Polish</kwd><kwd>Russian</kwd><kwd>strength</kwd><kwd>weakness</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>внешнеполитический дискурс</kwd><kwd>конструирование</kwd><kwd>межнациональные отношения</kwd><kwd>польский</kwd><kwd>русский</kwd><kwd>сила</kwd><kwd>слабость</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Александров-Деркаченко П., Ауров О.
