Expert approach
An examination of meaning and context rather than a political judgement
Political science examination must not replace the court, an advocate or legal assessment. Its task is to describe the material's content, social and political context, orientation, concepts, symbols, slogans and communicative purpose.
In complex cases, the examination may be interdisciplinary: a political scientist, linguist, historian, sociologist, religious studies scholar or media communication specialist each analyses the material within their competence.
- Materials:
publications, texts, videos, leaflets, programmes, public appeals, reports and case materials. - Context:
political circumstances, addressee, genre, communicative purpose, symbols, slogans and terms. - Conclusions:
orientation, signs of political campaigning, political content and limits of competence. - Court proceedings:
questions for an expert, a specialist opinion, including one based on a report review, and attendance at a hearing by agreement.
