    The persistence of authoritarian structures within the educational system has generated processes of control, discipline, and homogenization that limit critical thinking and individual autonomy. In this context, cultural products emerge as spaces for the representation and questioning of these power dynamics. This study analyzes how the song Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 2 by Pink Floyd constructs a narrative of resistance against such structures, from the perspective of critical discourse analysis. A qualitative descriptiveinterpretative methodology was employed, based on discourse and semiotic analysis, as well as a review of the socio-historical context of the work. The results show that the educational system is represented as a space of control and homogenization, where both students and teachers reproduce relations of domination. The music video reinforces this critique through symbols of dehumanization, mechanization, and loss of identity. The discussion suggests that the work not only reproduces these relations but also challenges them, promoting a critical reading and possibilities for symbolic resistance. It is concluded that the song constitutes a cultural product with strong ideological content that makes visible structures of social control.

    The objective of this research is to establish a discussion on women's fashion as a communication and power device with its historical perspective from the corset as a body regulation mechanism to the purple scarf as a symbol of resistance in the 21st century. The study was developed within an Interpretative-Critical paradigm, which conceived social reality as a symbolic construction mediated by discourses, practices and power relations, through a level of qualitative research, since they interpreted meanings and symbolic configurations through interpretation and analysis. On the other hand, the need arose to use a non-experimental research design of a historical-interpretive nature, with which phenomena that had already occurred were analyzed within a comparative timeline that allowed us to examine the evolution of women's clothing from the corset (16th–19th centuries) to the purple scarf (21st century). The results showed that fashion pursues certain ideals, marking values in each era, becoming a means to express personality, belonging to groups and even rebellion against social norms, while the purple scarf becomes a symbol of resistance that fights for the reconstruction of the new role of women in society. Concomitant with the above, the conclusion has been reached that both the corset and the purple scarf have been transformed into cultural signs with different messages, the corset as a body discipline and the purple scarf pursues the fulfillment of rights, sisterhood, collective struggle and dignity.

    This thesis conducts a film analysis of John Carpenter's They Live (1988) to show how it portrays ideas of media power, social control and consumption as forms of contemporary subjectification. Using a qualitative approach, a procedure was followed that looks at key frames. The research shows that They Live combines visual resources, symbols and narrative to present an ideological critique that unmasks how power is normalised and alienated subjects are produced in a culture dominated by consumerism and the media. Thus, the study demonstrates that film analysis, when supported by a rigorous theoretical framework and a precise methodology, can contribute to the understanding of contemporary communication and cultural processes.

    The present research work aims to analyze the impact of power on decision-making related to justice in the commune. This research is part of a research project approved by CONIN: UTA-CONIN-2023-0234-R. The main objective of the research is to determine how power influences justice decisionmaking in the Huapante Grande Commune, addressing concepts such as the distribution and types of power present in the community context, as well as the predominant type of justice in conflict resolution. To achieve these objectives, a mixed methodological approach was adopted, which combined quantitative and qualitative techniques. In the quantitative field, a structured 22-item questionnaire was applied to the inhabitants of the commune, evaluating dimensions such as power and justice using a Likert scale. In the qualitative field, in-depth interviews were conducted with community leaders. These tools made it possible to collect information on the inhabitants' perception regarding community participation, transparency and equity in conflict resolution. Among the main results, it was identified that power in the Huapante Grande Commune is concentrated in certain key actors, including community leaders and influential families. Likewise, it was observed that, although the community values community justice mechanisms, perceptions of inequality and lack of transparency in some processes persist. The research also revealed a significant influence of cultural and social factors in the administration of justice. The conclusions highlight the need to promote more inclusive and participatory practices to guarantee an equitable justice system that reflects the needs and values of the community. In addition, the importance of strengthening the capacities of community leaders to administer justice in a transparent and effective manner is underlined. This study represents a significant contribution to the understanding of the interactions between power and justice in community contexts, offering guidelines to improve local justice systems and foster social cohesion.

    This study focuses on analyzing the narratives, representations and critiques of capitalism present in the Netflix series "The Squid Game" (2021). In a context where capitalism has found in cultural industries, such as streaming platforms, an effective way to expand globally, this research proposes to understand the messages that the series transmits through its dialogues and images and how they present " The Squid Game" as a space not only for entertainment for those who watch it, but also criticizes the dynamics of contemporary capitalism, since the series reveals how the economic system subjects individuals to situations where they are dehumanized, turning them into pawns. In a sinister game, it also allows audiovisual productions to be approached as a reflection on the social and economic sphere that they present daily. The research adopts a qualitative descriptive approach to examine the capitalist discourses present in the series, which is based on a theoretical and practical analysis, where undergraduate and graduate theses were used as a reference point, as well as an exhaustive bibliographic review that provides the theoretical framework. necessary with authors such as César Bolaños, Omar Rincón, Guy Debord and Jesús Martín-Barbero, who are fundamental in the methodological construction, since they provide criticism of capitalism that enriches the understanding of the dynamics represented in the series. The discourse analysis in "The Squid Game" focuses on understanding how the series addresses the crises of capitalism at an individual and collective level. With this approach, the actions of the characters and events can be interpreted within the contemporary global socioeconomic context to thus being able to contribute to the understanding of how contemporary audiovisual narratives can function as tools for social criticism and reflection on the economic systems that dominate the world

    Without a doubt, the political and economic model of capitalism has a significant component in media seduction, as Max Horkheimer and Theodor Adorno (1998) proposed in the cultural industries. This is how the audiovisual industries create powerful communicational products intended to seduce the population within the imaginaries of capitalism. However, among these productions, there are several aimed at creating a critique of capitalism without losing the element of seduction, such as the Netflix series La Casa de Papel (2017), which denounces banking abuses, the geopolitical situations the world faces, and the economic policies of states. It creates a story where the robbers become the heroes and the governments the culprits, giving a twist to the narrative. Research in audiovisual narratives is necessary not only to understand the quantity of stories present but also to analyze the discourses within them to reflect on the societies we inhabit. Hence the interest in investigating these seductive narratives present in TV and streaming series. This research is significant and relevant due to the lack of internal analysis given to the content consumed, where the internal meaning is not examined. In this case, direct messages criticizing capitalism are analyzed. The objectives allow for an extensive and deeper analysis of the series through chosen variables such as political Manichaeism and all that geopolitical context entails. The methodology, through narrative analysis and the aid of matrices, allows for a graphical analysis, detecting symbols. On the other hand, the narrative is analyzed through contexts and dialogues, including flashbacks and the series' songs, which, upon analysis, reveal that these elements also carry messages and critiques

    A total of 11 days shook the economic, social and political base of Ecuador, during the days of mobilizations of October 2019, because of its composition I have called it indigenous, social and popular uprising; a scenario where the ruling classes assembled all the machinery of the large mass media in the production and reproduction of discourses around power, to influence the subjectivity of the population. For this reason, the present work proposes to analyze the production and reproduction of hegemonic discourses of the daily media La Hora in relation to the government around power; The methodology used focuses on the functionalist paradigm of critical discourse analysis through statements and the bibliographic descriptive one as a qualitative methodology. The research has attempted to characterize La Hora as an interest group on a daily basis, as a company that affirms the economic dynamics of capitalist accumulation. Its board of directors identifies ideologically and politically with Liberalism as part of the ruling classes that influence its editorial line; This interest, when related to the speech of former president Lenin Moreno in the Message to the Nation of October 7, 2019, demonstrates the significance of the speech and its position as part of the super structure of society to make visible the relationships of power
