Comparative Analysis of Rhetorical Moves in Student and Professional Project Proposal Abstracts
Business and Professional Communication Quarterly. 2024. Vol. 87. No. 1. P. 60–73.
Currently, the analysis of rhetorical moves is extensively applied to business genre
conventions. This paper adopts a corpus-assisted genre approach to compare three
major rhetorical moves in corpora of students’ and professionals’ project proposal
abstracts to elicit evidence-based recommendations for the pedagogy of business
communication. The findings indicate that, while overall features in the proposal
abstracts written by actual business professionals and those by students of business
vary quantitatively but not qualitatively, students focus more on the aim of the
project, and professionals tend to evenly highlight all sides of the project and position
it within the context.

The paper is devoted to the variable number marking in Shughni

factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,
or syntactic position may determine the presence or absence of number marking.

Developments across it increasingly reshape political, economic and social relations far beyond its borders. Understanding these dynamics is therefore both intellectually urgent and analytically demanding, requiring an interdisciplinary approach capable of moving beyond established categories and fragmented national perspectives.

Dezi A., Sesto San Giovanni: Mimesis, 2026.
This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

The success of Russia's integration initiatives in the post-Soviet space is often associated with Russia's soft power, namely Russia's ability to align its foreign policy objectives with the socio-economic interests of its regional partners.
