El marco ideológico discursivo en crónicas periodísticas de femicidios: el crimen de María Soledad Morales como caso emblemático

Abstract

This work identifies some several discursive niches for naturalizing gender violence by analyzing a corpus on a leading femicide linked to the Argentinean political elite in the 1990s. Four journalistic chronicles were chosen, two published contemporary to the crime and two 20 years after, from three journals. The results indicate that the types of nominalisations have changed over time, but there is an enunciative matrix that remains. These results allowed us to recognise the functioning of discursive mechanisms of ideological formation and the socio-historical relations of continuity/discontinuity.
