Antyimperialistyczne dyskursy polityczno-medialne w regionach Hiszpanii i państwach Hispanoameryki
Anti-Imperialist Political-Media Discourse in Spanish Regions and Hispanoamerica

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the political-media anti-imperialistdiscourses in various contexts within the Spanish-speaking world, that isin Spain and Hispanoamerica (the part of Latin America that was colonizedby Spaniards and where today Spanish is official language). Theanalyzed discourses appear in different media: in the case of Spain theproblem of the imperialism is present mainly in these regions where thecultural (regional) traditions are strong, like in Catalonia and BasqueCountry. In a political battle for independence Spain is treated as animperialist enemy that occupies old, formerly independent, countries.In the case of Hispanoamerica some political leaders (mainly leftist)use the media (like for example an international TV station TeleSUR,founded thanks to an initiative of Hugo Chávez) to their propaganda,although today the main imperialist enemy is the United States (and notSpain) with its “neoliberal”, “neocolonial” economic policy towards poorernations of Latin America.
