El sujeto extranjero en el discurso de la directiva de retorno¿Más allá de la dicotomía del yo y del otro?

Abstract

The epistemological framework that has been proposed in this Doctoral Thesis research is circumscribed within the domain of Discourse Analysis as a tool for interpreting the selected Corpus. The text of the Return Directive 2008/115/CE that legalizes the deportation of ‘irregular’ immigrants in European territory, constitutes the background of the analysis Corpus. The theoretical assumptions of phenomenology, sociolinguistics and psychology, support the problematization of the analysis of the discursive arguments of the parliamentarians of the European Union for and against the approval of the Return Directive that reconstructs the historicity of the foreign subject, reincorporating symbolic processes. from the social (economic, political and cultural) and ideological imaginary of a segregationist political system that does not consider immigrants as subjects of its own history, revealing an instituted racism, through a benevolent discourse of "safe deportation". The analysis of the images disseminated on the official interactive network of Parliament associated with the advertising text of the approval of the law is decisive to reflect institutional discrimination, when they only record images of “racialized” people that invites to contextualize different angles of analysis of the phenomenon legal-social. From Latin America, the sender of the speech -Evo Ayma Morales- is based on the historical memory of the invasion and colonization of native peoples, he appropriates history, reaffirming Europeans as responsible for the exploitation of the lands of America and, as a seal of collective memory attributes a founding seal to them and imputes an unpayable debt. The Return Directive, which also proposes to harmonize migration policies in the Member States of the European Union, is shown as a new-old cycle of dominant discourses, which reproduce exclusion, masked through a social duality; the historical dichotomies and stigmas that indicate that deportation marks the difference that serves to define "who is from within" and "who is from outside". It is the power of the law that makes them succumb to the deportation that has legitimized the politically (in)correct discourse of the political elite. The deported immigrant is the one who dies every day as a (non) autonomous being who went in search of the land that he has built in his imaginary as a place of opportunities. He is the one who truly represents all foreigners, in their utopian condition of being subjects of themselves within the society of exclusion. Without the ability to take their own decisions for their lives, they are subjects symbolically dead!
