La bibliografía sobre el discurso yihadista se ha centrado en los procesos de propaganda y captación y en el uso de medios digitales para su difusión. En la primera sesión del juicio por los atentados de Barcelona y Cambrils del 17 y 18 de agosto de 2017 (conocidos como 17A) se exhibieron tres grabaciones en que algunos de los jóvenes responsables comunican sus intenciones mientras manipulan explosivos. Este estudio analiza su interacción desde la lingüística pragmática y explora las identidades que construyen para sí mismos y para otros mediante el modelo analítico de Stamou (2018). Como resultado del análisis, se desgranan los mecanismos lingüísticos utilizados por los hablantes para construir identidades para sí mismos y para otros, así como las relaciones que establecen entre ellas y las ideologías en que basan su discurso. Se concluye que las herramientas de análisis empleadas en este estudio pueden resultar de gran relevancia en la perfilación lingüístico-discursiva con fines forenses de presuntos implicados en actos terroristas.

The literature on jihadist discourse focuses on the processes of propaganda and recruitment and on their dissemination through digital media. On the first session of the trial for the Barcelona and Cambrils attacks of August 17 and 18, 2017 (known as 17A), three videos were screened in which some of the young men who would later become responsible for the attacks convey their intentions while manufacturing explosives. This study analyzes their interaction from the perspective of pragmatic linguistics and examines the identities that the young terrorists construct for themselves and for others through the analytical model put forward in Stamou (2018). The results of this analysis scrutinize the linguistic resources used by the speakers to construct identities for themselves and others, as well as the relations established between these and the ideologies that support their discourse. We conclude that the analytical tools applied in this study may become very relevant for the discoursive and linguistic profiling of alleged terrorists for forensic purposes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
