MUNOZ TORRES, Carlos Arturo  y  JIMENEZ MARIN, Jorge Enrique. Analysis of Neologisms Using the Root -Política: Connotations and Notions. Núcleo [online]. 2014, vol.26, n.31, pp.123-145. ISSN 0798-9784.

In this article we describe neologisms with the root -política (parapolítica, farcpolítica, narcopolítica and yidispolítica), considered as constructions which extend word limits. These neologisms are described from contextual connotations to notions of the root -política, preceded by the affixes para, farc, narco and yidis. The method involved the identification of these neologisms, their selection (previously validated by the Colombian Neological Antenna between 2009 and 2011), and the selection of the entire context in which they appeared. The next phase was to carry out a comprehensive reading of the contexts of these neologisms, based on the contextual and phenomenological approach proposed by Van Dijk (2000a) and Van Manen (1990), respectively. The analysis consisted of five steps: 1) initial reading in order to identify contextual elements in the entire news report (participants, roles, and social acts); 2) in-depth reading in order to differentiate and group the variety of the previously identified contextual elements; 3) determination of themes by means of a selective reading approach; 4) definition of contextual connotations through the analysis of themes and a detailed reading approach; and 5) definition of a notion for each neologism by means of the analysis of contextual connotations and a holistic reading approach. This methodological proposal allowed us to conclude, in general, that certain contextual aspects help produce specific notions with a political effect for each neologism.

Palabras clave : neologisms created by composition; context; root -política; affixes.
