Abstract

This research focuses on textual analysis of the official transcript of President Barack Obama's speech at University of Indonesia, published by the White House. Speech is an interesting case to be analyzed. It is because the messages contained in the speech show the speaker’s demeanor. A policy, especially a foreign policy is absolutely identical to a country's political outlook. It portrays how a state imposes their policy to other countries. Thus, a speech of a country leader may be used as a reference of the country's political gesture on its foreign policy Hence, I am interested in analyzing the speech of President Barack Obama at University of Indonesia in order to comprehend the messages which attempt to be conveyed by President Barack Obama towards Indonesia. The theory used in this research is Critical Discourse Analysis of Teun A. van Dijk. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is a type of discourse analytical research that primarily studies the way social power abuse, dominance. In addition, Critical Discourse Analysis pays much attention to power relation and ideology, which are precipitated in discourse, and force the reader or listener to perceive reality in a specific, biased way. However, in this project, I do not analyze the whole dimensions. The concentration is only on the text analysis. Text analysis consists of multiple structures or levels that every part is supporting one another. Henceforth, there are three levels of text analysis: macro structure, superstructure, and micro structure. The method used in conducting this research is a method of qualitative which is a procedure of the research which produces the descriptive data in the form of written words or oral from people and the behavior can be watched closely.
