Resumo: This article aims to analyze the configuration of discursive antagonisms in the hashtags #bolsolão and #marqueteirosdojair during the context of the 2018 presidential elections in Brazil. In contribution to the theoretical and methodological challenges of the Digital Sociology, we started from an interdisciplinary perspective, approaching Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe’s Theory of Discourse to the Social Network Analysis on the internet. We collected a total of 26,548 tweets from the Twitter API through the software NodeXL Pro. Thus, the two hashtags selected were investigated using a contingency analysis, according to the metrics of modularity and degree of intermediation. By doing so, we verified the elements linked to the formation of the two hashtags, describing how they are articulated according to the logics of equivalence and difference. In conclusion, our theoretical-methodological proposal enables the observation of the political polarization as a dynamic, contingent and socially contradictory phenomenon, associated with the emergence of discursive antagonisms.

En la contribución a los desafíos teórico-metodológicos de la Sociología Digital, partimos de un enfoque interdisciplinario, llevando la Teoría del Discurso de Ernesto Laclau y Chantal Mouffe al Análisis de las Redes Sociales en Internet. A partir de esto, recogimos un total de 26.548 tweets del API de Twitter a través del software NodeXL Pro. Por lo tanto, investigamos los dos hashtags seleccionados a través de un análisis de contingencia, de acuerdo con la métrica de la modularidad y el grado de intermediación. De esta manera, verificamos qué sentidos están encadenados en la formación de los dos hashtags, describiendo cómo se articulan según las lógicas de equivalencia y diferencia. Llegamos a la conclusión de que nuestra propuesta teórico-metodológica permite observar la polarización política como un fenómeno dinámico, contingente y contradictorio en la sociedad, asociado a la aparición de antagonismos discursivos.Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a formação de antagonismos discursivos nas hashtags #bolsolão e #marqueteirosdojair, no contexto polarizado das Eleições de 2018 no Brasil.
