Abstract. The paper investigates the use of gaze in political communication. A study is presented on the electoral debates of two politicians in Italy and France. Fragments of their verbal discourse were analysed in terms of their hierarchy of goals, and their gaze communication was described and classified in terms of the persuasive strategies they pursue, logos, ethos or pathos. The results show that the pattern of gaze persuasive strategies is coherent with the hierarchy of goals pursued in the verbal discourse.

Abstract: Humans depend massively on communication with others, but this leaves them open to the risk of being accidentally or intentionally misinformed. We claim that humans have a suite of cognitive mechanisms for epistemic vigilance to ensure that communication remains advantageous despite this risk.
