【 摘 要 】

The author analyses conventions of electoral victory speeches. The concession and victory speech is a reciprocal ritual in the US politics, in which both candidates at the end of an election agree on the outcome, lend the legitimacy of the process, and start the political transition. Because of globalization of political life the ritual of victory speech is being spread onto many countries of the world. The article projects conventional topics of American victory speeches onto the discourse of the Russian Presidents. Though of a ritual character, they nevertheless have acquired a personal touch of the Russian Presidents. The author comes to the conclusion that such topics are of universal character and recur in the Russian Presidents’ victory speeches.
