| Description: | The aim of this article is to explore the construction of Italianness through the discursive elaborations of the Italian-San Vito population from the first to the third generations of Italian immigrants and their descends, in the southern region of Costa Rica. Research questions being investigated are: What it means to be Italian for the studied population? Do they consider themselves Italian, or Costa Rican (or both)? Which are the Italian elements of identity? This analysis follows the guidelines on the ideologies of Teun van Dijk (2000), and the conceptualizations about Italianness of Ernesto Galli (1998). It is considered that behind each collective self representation (positive or negative), there is the need to establish bonds of belonging. |
