Abstract

This research is a pragmatic study which investigates impolite acts performed in Vice Presidents’ Debate by three candidates: Muhaimin Iskandar, Gibran Rakabuming, and Mahfud MD. It aims to describe the types and functions of impoliteness strategies and to identify the candidates’ responses toward the impoliteness strategies performed in the debate. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method in which the data were in the form of utterances. The data source was taken from the debate video of the 2nd Debate of Vice President candidates from YouTube. Drawing on Culpeper’s (2011) theory on impoliteness strategies, the results of this research reveal that all five types of impoliteness strategies are used by the three candidates with Bald on Record Impoliteness as the most dominant type used in the debate with 12 occurrences (30%). This finding indicatesthat the candidates mostly attack their candidates in a direct, clear, unambiguous, and concise way. Moreover, Positive Impoliteness, Negative Impoliteness, Sarcasm and Mock Impoliteness have the same numbers with 9 occurrences (22.5%), and Withhold Politeness is only used 1 (2.5%). Regarding functions, three functions of impoliteness strategies are discovered; namely Affective Impoliteness with 21 occurrences (52.5%), Coercive Impoliteness with 16 occurrences (40%), and Entertaining Impoliteness with 3 occurrences (7.5%). The most dominant function used by the candidates is Affective Impoliteness. This suggests that the candidates aim to make emotional explosions to each other. As for responses, the most frequently used response by the candidates is Countering the Face Attack (75%). All the candidates used this response because they responded to another candidate’s attack to defend their face from the face attack. In conclusion, this research has demonstrated that the use of impoliteness strategies in debate can impact citizens whether to vote for politicians or hate the politicians due to their performance on the debate stage. Keywords: Debate, Functions of Impoliteness Strategies, Impoliteness Strategies, Responses, Types of Impoliteness Strategies
