Análisis de contenido de los discursos políticos de Rafael Correa, Jaime Nebot y Mauricio Rodas en el periodo electoral 2013 - 2014

Abstract

This paper examines the official speeches of Rafael Correa, Jaime Nebot and Mauricio Rodas given between 2013 and 2014. The small number of studies on the discourses of local and national political actors cause a lack of knowledge in this area, so this exploratory investigation uses the content analysis of contingency to break the text superficiality, reach its meaning and to gain knowledge about how the social representations of the electorate are built through the political discourse of these characters. For this, a review of the possession speeches held by the three political players was performed, by extracting the most relevant discursive fragments of each intervention and coming to find that either Rafael Correa, Jaime Nebot and Mauricio Rodas create more social representations based on ideology aspects.
