Ethnocentrism, nationalism and post-nationalism in the tales of subcomandate Marcos

A discourse analysis shows that the literary passages in subcomandante Marcos' press releases (Relatos de el viejo Antonio, Chiapas, CIACH, 1998 and Don Durito de la Lacandona, Chiapas, CIACH, 1999) express both the ethnical, national and post-national demands of the EZLN. The analysis reveals three tensions in the discourse, which seem to reflect the divergent pressures on the EZLN. ©2004 Regents of the University of California. All rights reserved.status: publishe
