MURCIA GOMEZ, VERÓNICA  y  MORENO MARTINEZ, ÓSCAR. The Position of Representation and Discourse: Reversing the Nation's Hackneyed Metaphor. Signo pensam. [online]. 2008, vol.27, n.53, pp.38-58. ISSN 0120-4823.

This article takes a critical look at the discursive and hegemonic relationships that work behind the production of what is understood as the representation of the nation; that is, a social, symbolic, and discursive construct. In this sense, it raises issues such as power, perspective, exclusion, conflict, and struggle which play a role when building or defining what should be understood as "national".

Palabras clave : Nation; representation; power; discourse; hegemony.
