This work focuses on the public polemic over nuclear power in Argentina. We identify and analyze processes of rebuttal and re-signification of arguments held by promoting sectors of nuclear power in the article The nuclear crack.

We identify and analyze processes of rebuttal and re-signification of arguments held by promoting sectors of nuclear power in the article The nuclear crack. Departing from an instrumental use of discourse analysis, and paying particular attention to the argumentative function of the topoi, we study a key dimension of the dichotomization mechanism conformed by the processes of rebuttal and re-signification of arguments that constitute the `nuclear speech´.

En este trabajo se aborda la polémica pública por la producción de nucleoelectricidad en Argentina a partir de la identificación, descripción y análisis de procesos de refutación y resignificación de argumentos sostenidos por sectores promotores de la energía atómica en el artículo periodístico La grieta nuclear. Implementando un uso instrumental del análisis del discurso, y prestando especial atención a la función argumentativa de los topoi, se estudia una dimensión central del mecanismo de dicotomización conformada por los procesos de refutación y resignificación de argumentos que constituyen la denominada “monserga nuclear”. En este sentido, se sostiene que la refutación y resignificación de las conceptualizaciones de la tecnología nuclear como limpia, segura y barata en el caso de estudio permite identificar la emergencia de un “discurso contra” que proponemos denominar en términos de antinuclear.
