Исследования политических эвфемизмов в Китае

Abstract

The article presents a review of the studies of political euphemisms in China. Political euphemisms are used by officials in such spheres as diplomacy, military studies and economics, due to which their thematic groups can be singled out. Usage of political euphemisms is a part of verbal strategy organized in keeping with the principle of polite com-munication but contrary to the principle of cooperation. Euphemisation is studied in China mainly on the basis of the texts of the British-American English language area, and especially those of US politicians.
