description This paper is a discursive analysis that applies the anthropological frame of linguistic ideologies (Woolard & Schieffelin 1994, Schieffelin et al. 1998) to the comprehension of the socio-political indexicalities of the Spanish and Galician languages. I will analyze three different and almost opposite projects of nation-building (Spanish vs. Galician) in a key institutional context as the university, through the analysis of the linguistic choice, the linguistic usages and the metalinguistic discourses contained in three propaganda leaflets of three student parties vying for the elections at the senate of the Universidade da Coruna (2006). In this context, as in general in Galicia, language is an object of highly relevant political dispute: the mere choice of using one language or another constitutes an ideologeme, an element of politicalideological distinction and opposition. Language is also indexical of political positioning. The analysis will show that the discourse of the leaflets rearticulate old discourses of nation-building with new discourses related to neoliberal ideology, either from acceptance, or from rejection, within a frame of a post-nationalism process (Heller 2011)
