We inscribe the present work within the framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) (Fairclough 1992, 2003, 2014; Hart 2014). We detected that certain themes and topics -conceptual frameworks, in terms of Cognitive Linguistics (Lakoff 2002, 2010)- were repeated throughout all the analyzed discourses. We grouped them into five categories 1) Argentina as a country of European migrants / immigrants since the beginning of the 20th century; 2) business relationships, investments; 3) drug traffic and terrorism; 4) refugees; 5) dissimilation between the in-group, Argentines, and the out-group, foreigners. En este trabajo, analizamos la manera en que el ex presidente argentino Mauricio Macri conceptualiza a les migrantes en sus alocuciones públicas durante el primer año de su mandato (diciembre 2015-diciembre 2016). Inscribimos el presente trabajo dentro del Análisis Crítico del Discurso (ACD) (Fairclough 1992, 2003, 2014; Hart 2014). Detectamos que ciertos temas o asociaciones -marcos conceptuales, en términos de la Lingüística Cognitiva (Lakoff 2002, 2010)- se reiteraban a lo largo de los discursos. De esta manera, pudimos agruparlos en cinco marcos: 1) Argentina como país de migrantes/inmigrantes europeos de principios de siglo XX; 2) relaciones comerciales, inversiones; 3) narcotráfico y terrorismo; 4) refugiados; 5) disimilación entre el in-group, los argentinos y el out-group, los extranjeros. Neste trabalho, analisamos o modo como o ex-presidente argentino Mauricio Macri conceitua os migrantes nos seus discursos públicos durante o primeiro ano do seu mandato (dezembro de 2015-dezembro de 2016). Inscrevemos o presente trabalho na perspectiva da Análise Crítica do Discurso (ACD) (Fairclough 1992, 2003, 2014; Hart 2014). Identificamos que certos temas ou associações - frames, em termos da Linguística Cognitiva (Lakoff 2002, 2010) - foram reiterados ao longo dos discursos. Dessa maneira, fomos capazes de agrupá-los em cinco marcos: 1) Argentina como um país de migrantes / imigrantes europeus desde o início do século XX; 2) relações comerciais, investimentos; 3) narcotráfico e terrorismo; 4) refugiados; 5) diferenciação entre o in-group, os argentinos, e o out-group, os estrangeiros.
