THE POLITICAL DEBATE OF GOVERNOR AND VICE GOVERNOR CANDIDATES (Anthropolinguistic Approach: Analysis Study Of Language Use)

In the term of politics political debate is the place for the few performers who have contradictions opinions each other in order to find out a better solution and also to show their abilities in arguing something. According to Bakhtin (1986 in Lunsford 2006: 5) any utterance is a link in a very complexly organized chain of other utterances. In this case, A Bakhtin means that all texts are dialogic. D In doing this research, the writer will examine the politicians use their language in front of public related to their cultural function. Through the utterances which are held by politicians expecially the candidates of governor and vice governor, the writer will know their cultural competence. The Interpretation criteria are based cultural values that can be seen through the functioning of various forces in the utterance by politicians which is used for their political interests.

Based on the dialogism concept of utterance by Bakhtinians overview, the problem of this research is further elaborated into research questions as follows: How is the political debate carried out among the governor and vice governor candidates in South Sulawesi? What are the features of the debate among the three governor and vice governor candidates? How does the dialogism exist in the political debate among the three governor and vice governor candidates.

Based on the research questions above, the objective of this research is specified into three items which are: To know more deeply about political debates situation among the governor and vice governor candidates in South Sulawesi related to their language use To find out the features of the debate among the three governor and vice governor candidates To examine the dialogism exist in the political debate among the three governor and vice governor candidates

 This

research will give the reader a knowledge of the relation of culture and language used by politician in the term of anthropolinguistic field. This study can give the clearly explanation about the language used by politician as a part of cultural existence and also this study can give an additional analysis of language in political issue. The research will enhance our concept of dialogism as used in the political concept.

 For

the students who learns or want to learn linguistics, this research hopefully can be used as the reference of language studies. For increasing societys awareness in responds to the language use by politicians

 The

scope for this research is antropolinguistic approach through using functional semiotic analysis. The analysis will focus on various features of language used in politicians utterances related to the cultural performance. The additional theory is Bakhtins dialogism theory.

This research is related to previous researches. First, Lunssford (2006) researched about the authority in debate through an intertextuality, or utterance, of other authorities, and that conflict within blind discourse communities. Halim (2010) revealed the construction of power, and the controversial aspects of intertextual references in the two speeches of SBY. Sandarupas article (KOMPAS, 2009:1) which is entitled the loss of poetic political language made his interpretation about the language used of politicians performances in order to responsible his cultural ability in front of public. Sandarupa (2013) analyzed the voice of a child constructing a moral society through poetic performance in Toraja.

Antropolinguistics Antropolinguistic is a sub-discipline of linguistics that studies the relationship of language and culture of human cultural fields. Functional Semiotics Silverstein (2001) gave a new idea in analyzing the text through the complex analysis of semiotic which is indexical analysis. Silverstein in Sandarupa (2013:1) described that functional semiotic text study is the theory to understand the text as a language used.

Denotational Text
Denotational text is concerned on communicating the information of what is being talked about from the utterance. Sandarupa (2013:4) In order to indicate those various kinds, Intuitions of topicality can be the formal machinery which can indicate the language.
