This paper tries to research how the political discourse performs. The moral judgement is suspended, in an attempt to develop the anatomy of this field. The fundamental question is how power is conquered by the political discourse. In other words, who is more succesfull: the cooperative use of language or the contrary? The research is important on three dimensions. Firstly, explanatory, we want to answer the question: how could we justify the performative action of the political discourse? In other words, the true, relevance, nonambiguity are more succesfull than there contraries? Then, instrumentally:which are the mechanisms and the strategies of the political discourse? Finally, more generally, to the basis of the language: does non-cooperation exit or it is just a discoursive pathology? The methodology is based on the identification of two ways to use the language: the cooperative manner and the non-cooperative one. For both of them, we will analyze the operating mechanisms and strategies.
