VEGA-RAMIREZ, Javier. Political discourse analysis. Methodological proposal for its use as a tool. Universitas [online]. 2023, n.38, pp.191-209. ISSN 1390-8634.  https://doi.org/10.17163/uni.n38.2023.08.

This article offers the results of a bibliographical research generated with the intention of offering a methodological proposal based on the epistemological perspective underlying the Political Discourse Analysis, whose origin is found in the work of Laclau and other authors. For this purpose, an exhaustive review of the conceptualisations surrounding Discourse, Hegemony and Politics is made in order to, subsequently, present in detail the possibilities offered by Political Discourse Analysis as a tool for social analysis. Finally, based on the authors reviewed, a proposal of methodological steps to develop Political Discourse Analysis applied to focused social phenomena is presented. It is concluded that Political Discourse Analysis as a perspective of analysis is fully valid for both large and small phenomena, and that the proposed methodology can be dynamically adapted to each of the requirements presented.

Keywords : Discourse analysis; political discourse analysis; hegemony; politics; Laclau.
