Universidad de AntioquiaAbstract
La explotación de la Amazonía se sostiene bajo los discursos de la civilización y colonización. Para ello, el aparato ideológico racista construye una imagen negativa de los aborígenes amazónicos. En este artículo, se estudia el discurso del expresidente Alan García como ejemplo de los discursos políticos antiamazónicos. Se demuestra que su discurso está basado en dos creencias discriminatorias: 1) Entre dos clases de ciudadanos, los amazónicos son ciudadanos de segunda clase y 2) El crecimiento económico es obstaculizado por grupos primitivos como los amazónicos. Para ello, desde el análisis crítico del discurso, se examinan las estrategias léxicas y discursivas presentes en un texto del citado mandatario. Finalmente, se concluye que el discurso de Alan García es una manifestación de una práctica social que reproduce discriminación en el país.The exploitation of the Amazon is based on civilization and colonization discourses. For this, the racist ideological apparatus constructs a negative image of the Amazonian aborigines. In this paper, the speech of the former President Alan García is studied as an example of antiamazonic political discourses. It showed that his discourse is related to two discriminatory beliefs: 1) Between two classes of citizens, the Amazonians are second-class citizens, and 2) Economic growth is hindered by primitive groups such as the Amazonian. Therefore, from the Critical Discourse Analysis, the lexical and discursive strategies are examined. Finally, it is concluded that his speech is a manifestation of a social practice that reproduces discrimination in the country.
