Abstract

This article is aimed at proposing a new kind of discourse analysis based on the Complexity Theory. Its method is founded on a systemic conception focused on the emerging and adaptable properties that compose it. The analysis was applied to a case study: the discourse of the political power in the Soviet Union from 1985 to 1991 based on the main topics that resulted from the reforms made by Mijail Gorbachov. The sample analyzed includes the speeches given by the Soviet leader and other important leaders as well as the reports of the state controlled press agency Novosti. Maps and graphics were also made with software VenSim PLE. With these, a model that allowed us to see among apparent discursive contradictions an entire coherent structure emerged. This enhanced the study and provided new epistemic clues to the theoretical development.
