What offers novel, within the field of critical studies on political discourse in Argentina, the proposal of the word infamous. Discursive clashes in the Argentine political arena between 1932 and 1938?

How to approach analytically the discursive practice of a collective agent, as is a political party? What is the role played by corporations in the orientation of government policies during the period 1932-1938? These are some of the questions that cross transversely The infamous word.
