| dc.description.abstract | The present research on Warren's All the King's Men tries to explore the inherent and underly in gparadoxes of American sense of democracy from the prospective of Foucauldian concept of power and discourse.This research gives a general introduction of disordered, in stable and anarchic experience of American political culture and also tries to unveil the maladies inherent in American political system which have been masked with strong cocoon of democracy.It further deals with the analysis of how people's needs are politicized to garner power. In this way, it is clear that the promise of democracy, good governance, equality, liberty, individuality and justice has turned into a mirage that common people hardly realize in their real life. The third chapter is the conclusion of the work that recapitulates the gist of the whole project.So, the dominant discourse of American democracy oscillates within the nexus between power and truth | en_US |
