Abstract

This article is based on a discursive analysis that proposes, from the framework of a doctoral thesis, a study of the discursive construction of freedom present in the lyrics of Argentine rock-pop from the period 1982-1989, from the end of the Malvinas War until the resignation of former President Raúl Alfonsín in 1989. To these effects, the construction of freedom in the lyrics is understood as a theme of diverse discussions: 1) there is reference to libera­tion in relation to military withdrawal; 2) a playful approach to life is presented, and 3) an individual manifestation is seen in a framework of democratic coexistence. In this regard, this paper will empha­size the last reference, based on the analytical expo­sition of four lyrics that will allow us to understand two relevant positions: the evasive perspective and the isolated observation of the real and libertarian.

Keywords:
