In this reflection article, it is carried out an approach to the features of the State conditions: Institutional administrative device and Symbolic capacity of the State in order to describe the hegemonic discourse in Colombian politics. For doing so, and based on the theoretical and methodological proposal of the Political Analysis of Signification, the conceptual development about the theory of State, public policies and the structure of political are taken up for understanding the clutter in which the political actors move and implement government actions. Finally, the recent events of the political arena are analyzed and it is concluded that political lying (the one that frightens and the one that fires up the spirit) have promoted -for the first time in the State history- the open and rude use of Orwell's doublethinking for standing in the way for a counter- hegemonic discourse able to become in an alternative of power.

Palabras clave : State; political spectacle; political analysis of signification; double discourse; political lying.
