ABSTRACT

Articulating politics and discourse involves considering a sphere of social activity (where the exercise of public speech is regulated by defining legitimate places, themes, styles and subjects, and at the same time a variety of power strategies are confronted) and the discourses produced within it, as well as how and where they circulate, with their inherent restrictions. It also involves addressing the ideological orientation revealed by the linguistic options used in discourses associated to different social practices and linked to certain positions within their respective social fields.
