Abstract
<jats:p>The article is devoted to the study of the mechanisms of implementation of integral linguistic rhetorical competence in the professional activity of a lawyer in Kazakhstan. Based on the consideration of the structure and tasks of the legal sphere of society, the principles and norms of Kazakh legislation and legal proceedings, the requirements for a lawyer as a professional linguistic personality, and the peculiarities of legal discourse, the necessity of developing linguistic rhetorical competence is substantiated. Defending the rights and freedoms of citizens and the interests of the state in court, a lawyer acts not only as an expert in legal matters, but also as a master of words, a speaker with judicial eloquence and able to have the desired communicative effect onparticipants in legal discourse. The purpose of the accusatory speech is to prove the guilt of the defendant in committing a crime and the danger of his actions to society based on the facts of reality. The purpose of the defense speech is to refute the point of view of the prosecution, to present evidence justifying the defendant or mitigating his responsibility. The article examines the judicial practice of a lawyer from the point of view of the embodiment of eight mechanisms for the implementation of integral linguistic rhetorical competence: predispositive-orientation, inventive-paradigmatic, dispositive-syntagmatic, elocutive-expressive, mnemonic,actional, psycho-rhetorical, editorial-reflective. The mechanisms developed within the framework of the Linguistic Rhetorical Paradigm, combining four stages of speech-thinking activity and five stages of the rhetorical canon, represent the process of creating a speech work, starting with preparation for writing a text, ending with reflection on the results of a speech. Each mechanism is responsible for certain qualities of text and speech, and serves as an indicator of the level of competence of a professional linguistic personality. The article presents the results of a study of the implementation of these mechanisms in the judicial practice of Kazakhstan. Based on the analysis of defensive and accusatory court speeches, verbal and non-verbal means,knowledge, skills, norms and rules are identified, through which these mechanisms are embodied in the speech-thinking activity of a Kazakhstani lawyer acting as a lawyer or prosecutor. In conclusion, it is concluded that in modern Kazakhstan, a lawyer is a highly qualified specialist with high moral responsibility, well aware of the national and cultural characteristics of a multinational people. Mechanisms for the implementation of linguistic rhetorical competence are important components of the professional activity of a Kazakhstani lawyer, which make it possible to identify and analyze the specifics of judicial practice in Kazakhstan. Studies of these mechanisms have prospects for identifying the features of the formation of professional linguistic personalities not only in the legal, but also in any other institution-oriented discourse of the country. </jats:p>
