Abstract

The article is an analysis about the category of social discourse on social inequality in Costa Rica using a qualitative methodology. With this category we rebuilt, from group narratives (the government elite, the parliamentary opposition and the unions) what has been created on social inequality based on their interactions. It has been taken in consideration four periods of government that go from 2006 to 2022. Containing two political parties being government, each in a consecutive period; first Liberación Nacional Party and then Acción Ciudadana party. For  this first part of the study, the period 2006-2014 is considered. Among the most important conclusions there is that social inequality has created a climate of injustice that has allowed new government elites to emerge, as well as new social leaders, among which a conservative religious leadership has emerged with social-political interests.
