Resumen

The ultimate goal of this paper is to perform a quantitative and qualitative analysis to show how the ways in which laws on gender and domestic violence in Spain and the UK are verbalised from a lexical standpoint are closely related to the political or sociological goals sought by the law in question. It examines what Garofalo (2017: 56) dubs “axiological items” or evaluative lexical units that express emotional engagement in laws and how differences arise due to the particular legal culture involved. The corpus analysed is made up of Spain’s Organic Law 1/2004, on Integral Protection Measures against Gender Violence and the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004 of England and Wales. A two-stage analysis is provided. Stage One performs automated processing using Antconc 2.0 (Anthony, 2014) to obtain a listing of keywords indicative of importance and frequency in each law of the terms belonging to the legal sphere and those fashioning the conceptual framework for domestic and gender violence, respectively. The second stage examines them from the perspective of sentiment analysis, specifically using the Lingmotif v.1.0 software package (Moreno Ortiz, 2017) in order to study the polarity (positive, negative or neutral) and the intensity of sentiment in these two legislative texts, by means of a detailed lexical analysis carried out by said application
