Abstract:

This article analyzes the creative contributions to counterrevolutionary criticism in Venezuelan popular music (2002–2018). I examine how these musical productions reclaim discourses previously controlled by political power. From the working-class neighborhoods of cities such as Caracas and Maracay—Chavista territories par excellence—the emergence of a radical street consciousness bluntly attacks the symbolic apparatus of the Revolution. In this context, these cultural products question the government’s fight for social justice and equality. In the study of the musical representation of political dissent, I focus on denunciations of a failed state, portrayals of socioeconomic tribulations, and possible solutions to the national crisis.

摘要：

本文分析了委内瑞拉流行音乐（2002-2018年）对反革命批评的创造性贡献。我研究了这些音乐作品如何恢复以前由政治权力控制的话语。从加拉加斯和马拉凯等城市的工人阶级社区（Chavista领土卓越），激进的街头意识的出现直截了当地抨击了革命的象征性手段。在这种情况下，这些文化产品质疑政府为争取社会正义和平等所做的努力。在研究政治异议人士的音乐表现形式时，我专注于对失败国家的指责，对社会经济灾难的刻画以及对国家危机的可能解决方案。
