Zborník z tretieho ročníka konferencie Jazyk a politika. Na pomedzí lingvistiky a politológie.
Predložený zborník predstavuje výstup z medzinárodnej konferencie, ktorá niesla názov Jazyk a politika: medzi lingvistikou a politológiou. Organizátorom konferencie boli okrem Fakulty aplikovaných jazykov Ekonomickej univerzity v Bratislave aj Ústav politických vied SAV a Slovenská spoločnosť pre regionálnu politiku pri SAV. Jednalo sa o interdisciplinárnu konferenciu s cieľom preskúmať fenomén politického jazyka očami odborníkov z viacerých vedeckých disciplín.

Politický jazyk je totiž spoločným objektom výskumu viacerých humanitných a spoločenských disciplín.
