Abstract
Previous works of discourse analysis have highlighted the environmentalist-anthropocentric frame employed by Rafael Correa in his speeches vis a vis the ecologist ones, characterising the discourse of two of his primary social opponents (Environmental and Indigenous groups). The present work expands the existing literature in two ways: through 1) the addition of populist and left-wing frames to interpret Correa's justifications of extractivist policies and 2) by observing issue (environmental preservation) saliency variations according to the audience addressed by the former president, and the year in which the speech was given, rather than assuming a static narrative. A systematic analysis of more than 600 speeches by Rafael Correa allowed for the visualisation of these justificatory patterns, which have been later contextualised in the light of the existing theoretical literature and explained through process tracing.
