El discurso en la estrategia autoritaria de Alberto Fujimori

Abstract

This article aims to show how president Fujimori progressed, from a democratic victory in 19W, in an ambiance of great publicity, to a progressive authoritarian control of the political arena featured by an increase of secrecy. This "authoritarian transition" has left a public evidence, in spite of his making policy, in his speeches where the president addresses to the nation every 28th of July, day of the Independence. In those 11 speeches, we can find Fujimori's marks of his policies: consolidation of his image as savior of the nation by popular anuence; increase of executive power without political or judicial balance; and the polarization of the political identities, supposedly creating a direct link between the majorities of Peru and his president. Making a systematic analyze of these presidential speeches, it is described how Fujimori has used the political discourse as an active device for legitimating his power without political deliberation.
