Resumen: El trabajo analiza la importancia de algunos ensayos fundacionales en la construcción de un discurso crítico latinoamericano y subraya los maridajes transatlánticos en sus planteamientos fundamentales, incidiendo en el impacto perturbador que lo europeo tuvo sobre la conciencia andina. Desde ese punto de vista se analiza en primer lugar la aportación de Alcides Arguedas, con Pueblo enfermo y en su debate con Tamayo. En segundo lugar se analizan los debates en torno a la obra de Carlos Montenegro y Jose María Arguedas y se contextualizan sus intervenciones en un proceso más amplio de construcción de la conciencia andina. En último lugar, se revisa la aportación de Mariátegui en sus Siete ensayos de interpretación de la realidad peruana, y su construcción de una ontología del presente capaz de redefinir las relaciones entre el tiempo y el espacio.Palabras clave: Ensayos fundacionales, Alcides Arguedas, José María Arguedas, Montenegro, Mariátegui.Abstract: The paper analyzes the importance of some foundational essays in the construction of a Latin American critical discourse and emphasizes transatlantic marriage in its fundamental approaches, emphasizing the disturbing impact that the European had on Andean consciousness. From that point of view, we first analyze the contribution of Alcides Arguedas, with Pueblo enfermo and in his debate with Tamayo. In the second place, we focus on the debates about the work of Carlos Montenegro and Jose María Arguedas and their interventions are contextualized in a wider process of construction of Andean consciousness. Finally, we review the contribution of Mariátegui in his Siete ensayos de interpretación de la realidad peruana, and its construction of an ontology of the present capable of redefining the relations between time and space.Keywords: Foundational essays, Alcides Arguedas, José María Arguedas, Montenegro, Mariátegui.

In this article, we analyze the use of the term ‘morsmål’ (‘mother tongue’) in official Norwegian documents and in media texts to identify if and how its conceptualization has changed in the era of increasing globalization. Our point of view is explorative. When examining our data, we highlight the importance of reflecting openly about the instability of powerful concepts. We highlight two partly conflicting conceptualizations that we name the ‘traditional use’ and the ‘novel use’, respectively. Building on critical discourse analysis and conceptual metaphor theory we explore how the conceptualizations reveal certain aspects of ideologies and the potential management of multilingualism in society. A broader understanding of how conceptualizations of mother tongue(s) are played out in the Norwegian context may contribute to the dialogue about multilingualism as it is understood and recognized across diverse contexts.

<p>The Javanese culture has a specific perspective on the ideal figure of women. This perspective is generally manifested in the classical texts, for example, in Serat Wulang Putri Adisara. Written by Nyi Adisara. Serat Wulang Putri contains the teachings for royal daughters in living their life as Javanese women based on Javanese teachings. In this manuscript, the readers can see the women figure portrayed from the perspective of a woman writer. This paper discusses the ideal women’s discourse in Serat Wulang Putri using the approach of critical discourse analysis from van Dijk. The analysis is conducted by considering the text’s microstructure, macrostructure, and cultural context. Through the analysis, we can see the ideal discourse of Javanese women based on Serat Wulang Putri. Furthermore, the text discusses women as figures who must pay attention to their attitudes and behavior, and can control their hearts, minds, and feelings. In this case, the author uses the male point of view to describe the characteristics of ideal Javanese women. Javanese women are also described as a weak figure and must obey what men command or expect from them.</p>

The term “critical”, as used by scholars writing under the banner of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), is in need of review in a new global intellectual environment in which diverse philosophical and political traditions are increasingly in contact with one another. This essay is particularly concerned with the question of how a shared understanding of the concept of the critical can be developed among Western and Chinese scholars. To this end the paper gives an overview of notions of critique in the historical traditions of China and the West, addressing issues of conceptualisation, discourse practice and translation. This leads us to consider, from a “critical” point of view, what the appearance of the “critical” approach may mean in the Chinese context. The need for continued dialogue oriented to a deepened understanding of existing ideas and approaches is highlighted.

The article discusses the main features of the Law of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) from the point of view of modern international law, its legal nature and place, and functions in the regulation of the Eurasian integration. The article investigates the importance of the Foundation agreement as the international legal basis of the Union and its legal system. The author conducts comparative law analysis of conceptual models of the integration law on the example of the European legal theories of the European Union and Latin American theories of law on regional economic integration. This article gives comprehensive international law characteristics of regulatory definitions and conceptual framework of the EAEU law. The author classifies contractual sources of the Union’s Law and reveals the relationship between them. The author shows the role of secondary sources of the Union’s Law — acts of intergovernmental bodies. The author does not only list the sources enumerated in the EAEU Treaty, but also makes a forecast about the role of other international law acts and norms in the development of the EAEU Law concept. The author draws the conclusion that the Union’s Law is of an international law nature.

A MOOD OF DISILLUSIONMENT APPEARS TO BE SWEEPING THE FIELD of comparative politics and political development. This comes after almost two decades of rather impressive accomplishment, both from a qualitative and quantitative point of view. From small beginnings in the first years after the second world war, there is now a quite impressive literature in this field. Each area of the world has something like a ‘five-foot shelf’ of monographic studies of political processes, patterns and developmental tendencies. Some of these shelves are smaller than others. The Latin American shelf, for example, has lagged in growth but is in process of rapid improvement. The Middle Eastern shelf leaves much to be desired, but even here there are signs of stirring and of potential productivity. In addition to these ‘area shelves’ which show increasing signs of cumulativeness, of drawing on each other for perspective and for hypotheses, there is a ‘super shelf’ of comparative and theoretical studies which draws upon the area shelves and which contributes frameworks, approaches and hypotheses for monographic studies.

The author uses Critical Discourse Analysis to compare two legal documents of critical relevance for the rights of children in conflict with the law in Argentina: the current law no. 22,278, called Régimen Penal de la Minoridad, and the project named Sistema de Responsabilidad Penal Juvenil which was under consideration by the National Congress during 2019. This project was proposed by the government so as to stablish a new juvenile justice system in Argentina, following a widely spread tendency in the Latin American region. The purpose of the article is to show that, even though the language of human rights is used in official discourse and in the legal text submitted to Parliament, many of its features represent a clear backlash to a more conservative regime.

Resumo: A proposta aqui apresentada é proveniente de algumas tensões possibilitadas pela leitura de José María Arguedas, aos 50 anos de sua morte, a partir dos debates de autores da “virada ontológica” e do “giro epistemológico” na produção do conhecimento antropológico. Neste sentido, retomo o livro Los Ríos Profundos (1958) de Arguedas e coloco em diálogo com preocupações acerca dos Earth Beings. Tomo, também, a metáfora do Pachachaca de Rômulo Monte Alto (2011) e as inquietações epistemológicas, portanto políticas, da teoria crítica anticolonial latino-americana, em especial a categoria ch’ixi de Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui. Meu objetivo, deste modo, é evidenciar as ressonâncias entre as preocupações ontoepistemológicas (DE LA CADENA, 2015) da antropologia com a produção de uma narrativa literária arguediana.Palavras-chave: antropologia; ontoepistemologias; literatura; José María Arguedas.Abstract: The proposal presented here stems from some tensions made possible by the reading of José María Arguedas at the 50 years of his death, from the debates of authors of the “ontological turn” and the “epistemological turn” in the production of anthropological knowledge. In this sense, I return to the book Los Ríos Profundos (1958) by Arguedas and put in dialogue with concerns about Earth Beings. I also take the metaphor of Rômulo Monte Alto’s Pachachaca (2011) and the epistemological, therefore political, concerns of Latin American anticolonial critical theory, in particular Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui’s ch’ixi category. My goal, therefore, is to highlight the resonances between anthropology’s on-epistemological concerns (DE LA CADENA, 2015) with the production of an arguedian literary narrative.Keywords: anthropology; ontoepistemologies; literature; Jose Maria Arguedas.


The present study analyzes the narratives by Russian bloggers on the 2008 South-Ossetia conflict. This analysis of political discourse is underpinned by the principles of cognitive linguistics, developed on the basis of bodily experience of human beings. The combination of different approaches leads to a more comprehensive analysis and concise interpretation of events taking place in society. This cognitive-discursive perspective differs from traditional studies of mass media narratives which mostly base on Discourse Analysis (DA) and/or Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), i.e., language in use is studied from the perspective of meaning on/ above the level of sentences and through the relationship between language and society, as well as language and power. Methodologically, this study was conducted on the basis of integrative speech analysis, critical discourse analysis, and cognitive linguistics. From the cognitive point of view, bloggers’ discourse is based on concepts evaluated positively (BENEFIT, FAIRNESS/HONORABLE CASE), negatively (CONQUER, PROBLEM, VANDALISM, NEGOTIATED MATCH), and neutrally (DEMONSTRATION, TEST). From the linguistic point of view, in their discourse, bloggers extensively use metaphors, which belong to the most effective ways of expressing opinions and are widely used by the media to create vivid images of the events described. A qualitative generalization of the data of content analysis proves that the attitude of Russian bloggers to the conflict is quite diverse, there is no consensus about how the war was fought, about its results, about the current situation and future prospects for the region.
