    El discurso en la canción "This is not America" y sus connotaciones sociopolíticas
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Comunicación, 2025-03-06) Llerena Chinachi, Tamara Aracelly; Viteri Torres, Walter Francisco
    The present thesis analyzes the sociopolitical connotations in the song This is Not America by Residente, identifying how its discourse denounces historical oppression, economic exploitation, and the cultural invisibilization of Latin America. The main objective is to describe these sociopolitical connotations, addressing elements of cultural resistance and criticism of imperialism. The research is primarily based on Van Dijk's Critical Discourse Analysis theory, complemented by Wittgenstein's concept of the language game to interpret the song's lyrics. The methodology employed is qualitative, utilizing the technique of critical discourse analysis. The analysis matrix was the main instrument used to break down the content into sociocultural, political, and linguistic dimensions. The analysis identified recurring themes, such as the resistance of indigenous peoples, symbolized through historical and cultural Latin American references. The results highlight that the song articulates a discourse that brings to light the struggles of marginalized groups in South America, while also redefining the concept of "América" from an inclusive perspective and celebrating the cultural diversity of the continent.
