Abstract

The article examines the peculiarities of the implicit verbalization of the concept of PEACE in the diplomatic discourse of modern Chinese on the basis of the provisions on the political solution to the Ukrainian crisis put forward by China on the first anniversary of the RussianUkrainian military conflict, which made it possible to outline the multi-component structure of the studied concept. It is proved that in the context of Chinese-language diplomatic discourse, which is a type of political discourse, a number of concepts function, such as HARMONY, NONinterference, MUTUAL BENEFIT, etc., among which the concept of PEACE, which embodies the diversity of ideas about the highest moral value of each nation, imprinted in the Chinese-language consciousness, occupies a prominent place. It has been found that the studied concept is actualized primarily through the concept of 和平 hépíng «peace», each of the components of which is the minimum nominal unit of the analyzed universal human phenomenon: lit. 和 harmony; living in harmony with the world; benevolence; 平 calm; equal; prosperous; calm down. In addition, other definitions of the concept of «peace» embodied in concepts characteristic of both European culture (e.g, 和平鸽 hépínggē «dove of peace»), and purely Chinese (和平共处 hépíng gòngchǔ «peaceful coexistence», 和平共处五项原则 hépíng gòngchǔ wǔxiàng yuánzé «five principles of peaceful coexistence»), etc. These and other lexical items play an important role in the formation and functioning of the concept of PEACE in the modern diplomatic discourse of the Chinese language, the main characteristic of which is implicit or indirect expression at the linguistic level. Among them are twelve points on peace formulated and put forward by the Chinese government as the main position in interstate relations, including respect for sovereignty, ceasefire, guarantee of food supply, maintenance of nuclear power plant safety, etc
