Acknowledgments This book was defended as a doctoral thesis in 2014 at the Institut für Sozialwissenschaften, Philosophische Fakultät III, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. It is the result of several years of interest in the relationship between language and politics, which has its origin in my studies of political science and Slavonic linguistics at Univerzita Karlova v Praze (Prague). The completion of the project would not have been possible without the outstanding scholarly and moral support provided to me by my academic advisors Prof. Herfried Münkler and Prof. Silvia von Steinsdorff, which I am most grateful for. I would also like to express my gratitude to Prof. Pavel Barša and Prof. Jürgen Mackert, who provided me with important insights on the subject at the very beginning of my research.

I also thank my editors, who helped me polish it in the end. In the course of the years, I very much benefited from the infrastructure provided to me by the Berlin Graduate School of Social Sciences and its
