Aspectos teóricos para el estudio del discurso y la representación estatal de la vivienda popular en Venezuela.

This paper is a study of the theoretical framework employed in the study of the social representation of lower class housing constructed by the Venezuelan government, and refers to institutional discourse. In the study, the importance of the rationality of the capitalist state in relation to the construction of these social representations is considered. In the same vein, the theory of representations related to social representations of construction on the part of social subjects is examined, specifying this concept in relation to the social representation of housing on the part of the Venezuelan state. Theoretical references are constructed as to public policy, associating it with capitalist rationality and the theory of social representations. In this manner, a theoretical review of the principal authors who touch on these aspects is made. The conclusion is that the social representation of lower class housing and public policy is profoundly related to the capitalist rationality inherent in the Venezuelan government.
