El cronotopo barrial Vida cotidiana, argumentación y verdad en los discursos de una agrupación vecinal para la prevención del delito

the notion of "daily life" is both a sociological and an interpretative resource when decoding common and familiar practices. our aim is to examine how the notion of "daily life", along with the idea of "neighborhood", can become or be used as an argumentative common place (topoi) that plays a central role in a wider, more understandable expository strategy oriented towards the production of non-political effects. taking ducrot's argumentation theory and garfin-kle's ethnomethodology as our theoretical framework, we analyze a corpus of discourses produced by the members of a neighborhood's organization to prevent crime in la paternal, a neighborhood in the city of buenos aires, argentina.
