Abstract
This study examines how the “Community with a Shared Future for Mankind” (CSFM) is recontextualized in Singaporean and Pakistani media, utilizing a Discourse-Historical Analysis framework and a Discourse-Conceptual Approach. It investigates the thematic features, argumentative topoi, and discursive strategies that shape the media’s representation of CSFM. The findings show that Singaporean media primarily frame CSFM within a discourse of pragmatic internationalism and regional stability, highlighting economic interdependence and geopolitical tensions. In contrast, Pakistani media emphasize CSFM as a transformative vision for mutual prosperity, focusing on solidarity, economic sovereignty, and development. The study demonstrates how the identified thematic categories correlate with specific semantic fields, creating key topoi that either legitimize or contest CSFM based on each country’s geopolitical positions and policy priorities. This research offers valuable insights into the discursive construction and recontextualization of political imaginaries within global public discourse.
