| Title | The Image of the Father of the Nation in Contemporary Belarusian politics: the Case of A.R. Lukashenka |
| Summary | In my thesis I analyze the image of the father of the nation performed by the current Belarusian president A.R. Lukashenka. I try to show the complexity of this political image, pointing to the number of connections that this image has with the authoritarian power, patriarchal family model, militarism and hegemonic masculinity. I intend to study how the image of the father of the nation is constructed in contemporary post-socialist space through the analysis of the mass media and popular culture materials, dedicated to the political image of A.R. Lukashenka. I analyze the strategies that allow this image to exist in the assumingly democratic state, and I intend to indicate the specific traits of this image, which make it successful despite its oppressive nature. |
