Populismo en América Latina : Desde la teoría hacia el análisis político. Discurso, sujeto e inclusión en el caso argentino

Los procesos actuales han revitalizado el debate en torno al populismo en América Latina; no obstante, el estatus teórico de la categoría está lejos de ser clarificado. En este contexto, el artículo propone una contribución a la teoría política del populismo a partir de la perspectiva abierta por Ernesto Laclau, a la vez que avanza en la definición de campos funcionales al análisis político: el populismo como discurso, como construcción del sujeto político y como inclusión de lo excluido en el orden social. A partir de estos desarrollos, en la segunda parte del artículo se utilizan estos aportes para analizar el proceso político actual en Argentina, a saber, el fenómeno del kirchnerismo

Variação entre os pronomes tu e você na função de sujeito na fala de Natal (RN): uma abordagem sociofuncionalista

In this dissertation, under the light of a sociofunctionalist approach (TAVARES, 2003; 2013; GORSKI; TAVARES, 2013), I analyze 378 data of pronouns tu and você extracted from 12 conversations belonging to Natal Conversational Data Base (CUNHA, 2010). I have the following objectives: (i) mapping linguistic and extralinguistic specialization trends of second person singular subject pronouns tu and você in the speech of Natal (RN); (ii) assessing the role of the principle of persistence (HOPPER, 1991) as a possible motivating factor of specialization trends of pronouns tu and você; (iii) identify in which of the six pronouns subsystems proposed by Scherre et al. (2009) is situated the speech community of Natal portrayed in this study. In order to achieve the proposed objectives, I submitted the data to multivariate statistical analysis, which have provided frequencies and relative weights.I obtained, as relevant factor groups, according to the statistical analysis, the nature of the relationship between the interlocutors (if the relationship is asymmetric, less intimate, and more formal, the use of você is favored; if the relationship is symmetrical, intimate and informal, the use of tu is favored); the degree of formality of the environment in which the conversation takes place (in more informal environments tu was favored; in more formal environments você were favored); and the type of discourse (reported / not reported) (tu was favored in not reported discourse and você was favored in reported discourse). Based on results regarding to these factors groups, I organized a panorama of specializations of pronouns tu and você, noting that tu seems specialized for more informal contexts of use than those for which você seems specialized. The motivation underlying these trends of specialization may be the principle of persistence, since along its historical development, você carries a trace of greater formality or, at least, less intimacy, when contrasted to tu. Finally, I concluded that, of the six pronoun subsystems proposed by Scherre et al. (2009), the speech community of Natal can be framed in the fifth, characterized by variable use of subject pronouns tu and você, with more frequent use of você than tu, and rare occurrence of agreement of tu with second-person singular verb.

institucionalização de pessoas com paralisia cerebral: a difícil relação sujeito - OUTRO - linguagem

Na Fonoaudiologia há trabalhos que exploram uma gama de questões relativas ao atendimento de pessoas com Paralisia Cerebral. Praticamente todos são orientados por vertentes organicistas ou sócio-cognitivas. A ausência de oralização, muito frequente em casos graves, talvez tenha um papel nesse caso: pesquisadores e profissionais concluem que se não há fala, a pessoa está fora da linguagem. Supõe-se a pessoa, contudo, capacidades perceptuais e cognitivas, mas não linguísticas. Sob esse raciocínio, a linguagem e seus efeitos sobre o sujeito são ignorados. É exceção neste quadro tradicional uma discussão que teorize de modo consistente sobre linguagem e sobre sujeito (Vasconcellos 1999 e 2010; Dudas 2009). Em outras palavras, são raríssimas as pesquisas que se distanciam do discurso organicista e do sujeito epistêmico. O presente artigo toma a direção da exceção mencionada para refletir sobre a institucionalização de pessoas com Paralisa Cerebral e sobre efeitos subjetivos e clínicos

Vagabundos e criminosos: o trabalho como mecanismo de poder e índice de criminalização no discurso jurídico-penal de reinserção social dos apenados

This study was a critical investigation of the configuration of discourse on work in the Brazilian criminal legal discourse. We problematized the discourse of an alleged reintegrative social function proposed by the criminal legal system and analyzed the role of such discourse in the core of disciplinary power strategies that impose on individuals the honest worker condition as a major criterion for their rehabilitation and return to society as citizens. This critique is our starting point to build the argument that discourse on work as it appears in current criminal legal texts operates more as a criminalization index of those who do not have a lawful occupation than a guarantee of legitimate social transit for convicts and recognition of their dignity. For this purpose, we used as corpus the main sources of Law, namely the Federal Constitution of 1988, the Penal Code, the Penal Execution Law, the Brazilian criminal doctrine and an extensive, more recent penal jurisprudence with regard to techniques of resocialization through work. This critical line enabled us to recognize complexity and plurality of discourses - antagonistic, at times - that build the world of work as portrayed in legal texts. We also sought reference in the discussion on the centrality of work as a formative category of the social being as well as theories that defend the non-centrality of work. Throughout our investigation, we sough to question the very condition of such centrality and to understand the ways in which it was possible to produce a legitimating discourse on work as a model of emancipatory social conduct defended and demanded by the Brazilian punitive system. In a context of precariousness, unemployment and flexibilization of the world of work in contemporary society, convicts hardly ever succeed to resume the identity of honest, hard-working citizens - and no longer offenders. In this context, we also questioned the formulation of a discourse that speaks about human labor as the essence of man and criticizes the Marxist vision that is based on work centrality, and we approached the concept of Michel Foucault, our theoretician of reference, who understands work more as a mechanism of power that promotes the individuals’ submission and adaptation to a goods-producing society than the natural activity of man. We ascribe our study to the field of questions that tackle the political conception of the body as subject to labor imposed as productive and political force. It is about the issue of political technology of individuals, a technology of power, as named by the French author. The intended analysis has not dismissed the material existence of labor relations but sought to discuss the validity of a discourse that considers work the main resource for convict rehabilitation and index for the recognition of dignity and honesty. The Foucauldian discourse analysis was the foundation for the investigation of our object, especially if we understand discourses as social practices with power to institute knowledge and produce truths.

Aprendizagem de um gênero de discurso e de atividade de autoconfrontação em ações de formação docente continuada na educação superior

The objective of this text is to discuss a central question in a doctorate study, in progress, about the learning of the speech genre in self-confrontation situations. This consists of a procedure, which a worker observes your own images, video recorded at the time it performs activities related to their craft; It requests that he comment on what he was doing on the images in order to clarify matters for himself and another - be it a intervenant (simple self-confrontation) or a coworker (crossed self-confrotation). (CLOT, 2008/2010). In the context of this research, the confronted workers are university teachers and students who participate in an action of teacher continuing education. The object of the research is the process of speech genre of learning self-confrontation situation, having as subject a person who conducts self-confrontations training, which initially observed the conduct of dialogues and reflections, and will gradually participating in the self-confrontation activity and becoming also forming another. The theoretical foundations of the research seeks an articulation between sciences such as the Psychology of Labor, the Cultural-historical Psychology and Linguistics. The concepts that are employed come from Clot´s theory of the Psychology of Labor, that is, from the Clinic of Activity and from the activity genre studies (CLOT, 2008/2010); they also come from the Vygotskian theory of human development, with the concepts of thinking and speech (VIGOTSKI, 1934/1998); and from the Bakhtinian dialogic principle (BAKHTIN, 1979/2011). We believe that the formation of the person conducting self-confrontation occurs through learning a gender of speech and a genre of activity.

Constatou-se na pesquisa empírica a dificuldade em induzir os indivíduos a revelaram sua verdadeira disposição de pagar pelo patrimônio ambiental, em razão da responsabilidade individual do entrevistado, frente à questão e a possibilidade de aproveitamento coletivo advindo da conservação ambiental.

¿Feminismo indígena? : Un análisis crítico del discurso sobre los textos de la mujer en el movimiento zapatista 1994-2009

This work analyses texts on indigenous women´s participation in the Mexican Zapatista Army, Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional. The EZLN came to public attention after ten years of clandestine organization in 1994 in Chiapas, a southern state of Mexico neighboring Guatemala. Along the invasion of various municipalities in Chiapas, the Zapatista Army published their own Revolutionary Laws, directed to the Mexican government that included a section on women´s own laws. The indigenous women´s participation in a guerrilla movement in the economically poorest area of Mexico raised many questions among Mexican feminists and some of them fiercely criticized the laws for not being liberating or feminist at all. The question is, did the indigenous women want the laws to be feminist? To answer the main research question How is the position of women constructed in the Zapatista discourse? I analyze texts by various actors in the discourse within the theoretical framework of critical discourse analysis and the feminist theories of intersectionality. The connecting point in this interdisciplinary framework is the question of power and hegemony. The actors in the discourse are the women commanders themselves, the men commanders, the Zapatista spokesperson, subcomandante Marcos and the Mexican feminists. The texts analyzed are the letters of the EZLN to the media and discourses in public reunions, first published in Mexican newspapers and international discussion lists on the Internet and after 2005, on the Zapatista´s own webpage. The results show that instead of discussing whether the Zapatista women´s participation is feminist or not, the action itself provoked such wide discussion of the diversity within the feminist movement that it is a contribution itself. The work also shows that the use of language can be one tool in the quite recent paradigm of intersectionality in feminist theories.

Propuestas para un análisis del discurso de Naufragios, de Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca

Prólogo: "El objetivo del presente trabajo es entroncar un texto de la colonización y descubrimiento de América con la tradición humanista. El relato denominado Naufragios del tesorero de la expedición de Pánfilo de Narváez, Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, debe ser visto, a nuestro entender, desde esta tradición alimentada por las vertientes grecolatina y judeocristiana y la continuidad de un corpus literario al cual pertenecen autores como Dante Alighieri, el Inca Garcilaso de la Vega o Cervantes...

Libertad y democracia en el discurso de Monseñor de Andrea : (1932-1946)

Resumen: Los conceptos de “libertad” y “democracia” que se presentan en los discursos de Monseñor Miguel de Andrea durante los años 1932 y 1946 fueron fundamentales para elaborar una estrategia comunicacional orientada a combatir el comunismo y defender los valores republicanos. Se parte de la premisa de que el discurso es una herramienta primordial para difundir ideas y pensamientos, formar opinión y movilizar a la acción. El carácter excepcional de Miguel de Andrea en el mundo eclesiástico e intelectual de su tiempo lo convierten en una figura clave en la defensa de la Constitución y la democracia del período de entreguerras.

Hermeneútica jurídica y comunión en la fe católica. (Apostillas al discurso de Benedicto XVI a la Rota romana, el 21 de enero de 2012)

La convocatoria a recorrer un “Año de la fe” permitió a Benedicto XVI centrar su alocución de 2012 a la Rota romana en ese próximo acontecimiento eclesial. La extrema importancia que el Pontífice atribuye a su llamada a renovar la fe católica se puso de manifiesto en las palabras que dirigiera unos días más tarde a la plenaria de la Congregación para la Doctrina de la Fe...

Análisis del discurso científico: una nueva organización categorial

Resumen: En el presente ensayo abordamos el tema del análisis del discurso científico presentando nuevas categorías y formas de organización para la descripción del mismo. Su aplicación facilita la transmisión de las prácticas metodológicas y clarifica la comprensión de los conceptos involucrados en la producción de propuestas de investigación, tesis y artículos científicos. Se hace uso principalmente de adverbios de posición en lengua latina ya que los mismos dan una indicación clara de la relación entre las partes del discurso propio de este género.

Discurso y praxis contra el fraude : consideraciones sobre la política reformista de Roberto M. Ortiz (1938-1940)

Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la estrategia política del presidente Roberto M. Ortiz durante el período en actividad (1938-1940) para combatir el fraude electoral y normalizar las prácticas electorales e institucionalidad democrática de la Argentina de fines de los años treinta. Se presume que el presidente orientó su proyecto político de una manera aperturista y de diálogo sincero con la Unión Cívica Radical (UCR). Para ello promovió dos estrategias claras: lograr el apoyo de los sectores liberales del Ejército, e intervenir las provincias con prácticas fraudulentas. Su política contra el fraude provocó una situación inédita de erosión de la coalición de partidos oficialistas, base de sustentación del Poder Ejecutivo. Sin apoyo partidario, Ortiz quedó aislado y en clara confrontación con el Senado, dominado por grupos conservadores.

“Queremos los medios en manos de empresarios nacionales” : un análisis del discurso de Néstor Kirchner en la prensa escrita

Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar comparativamente el modo en que la prensa gráfica de circulación nacional construyó en noticia el discurso pronunciado por el ex presidente Néstor Kirchner en ocasión de la promulgación de una medida de política de comunicación. Se trata del decreto firmado por el ex primer mandatario el 20 de mayo de 2005, que dispuso la suspensión del cómputo de todas las licencias de radio y televisión del país por un plazo de diez años. El estudio de las noticias se aborda desde una perspectiva interdisciplinaria que combina el análisis del discurso con herramientas metodológicas propias de las teorías sobre el periodismo.
