| Abstract | ||||
| From a critical discourse analysis (henceforth CDA) viewpoint, the current research has illuminated solidarity in the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz AL Saud’s (May Allah Almighty protect and preserve him) speeches regarding the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Health Care System. Lo Bianco (2010) discusses the challenges faced by policy sciences in balancing objective science, data collection techniques, and decision-making, highlighting the importance of insider experience and subjective experiences. These results suggest that policy can be made in novel ways by combining data and dialogue. Persuasion, and therefore language, is critical. Persuasion relies on a mixture of evidence and argument, occasionally supported by facilitated debates (Majone, 1989). Research on rhetoric, evidence persuasion, and narrative is crucial for understanding policy and building democratic models. Policy sciences are shifting from efficiency to conviction and credibility, focusing on problem framing and understanding. Language plays a significant role in policy, with modern democracy primarily influenced by persuasion. Fairclough (1995) defines media analysis as examining economic, political, and cultural contexts, emphasizing market nature and state relations, and arguing that professionals and institutions heavily control mass media. Critics argue that media, not directly controlled by the West, serves as a tool for the powerful, utilizing hegemony to gain public consent and maintain domination. Policy studies focus on rhetoric, evidence persuasion, narrative, and problem framing, with language influencing modern democracy and media analysis examining economic, political, and cultural contexts. | ||||
