McGee December 1979 Chairman: David Bushnell Major Department: History Students of the Argentine right wing have generally focused on its political ideas and roles in the years since 1930. In this study I trace the origins of counterrevolutionary movements from 1900 to 1932 and explore tlie social conditions and motivations which led to their formation. Counterrevolution is defined as antagonism to the emancipatory process which found its philosophical expression first in liberalism and then in Marxism; here it does not mean suppression of or opposition to any particular revolution. The membership, views, and activities of the Liga Patriotica Argentina, Liga Republicana, Legidn de Mayo, Accidn Republicana, and Legi6n Civica Argentina are examined, along with La Nueva Rcptiblica and its writers. I classify these groups according to their members' social status and ideas as conservatives, reactionaries, or counterrevolutionaries. The roots of counterrevolution lay in the tensions associated with the rapid economic growth of the period 1880 to 1914. Development of the export sector, immigration, urbanization, and industrialization greatly altered the social structure, creating the conditions for labor unrest and mass politics. Members of the political class responded to a perceived radical threat by repressing the labor move- ment, organizing yellow unions, restricting immigration, and wooing labor away from leftism. The social Catholic movement encouraged class conciliation by bringing workers and entrepreneurs together in the same organizations and establishing confessional unions and social projects. Social Catholics and other conservative reformers joined Socialists in advocating social legislation and mutualism. A conserva- tive ideology which encompassed economic nationalism, hostility toward immigrants and workers, traditional anti-Semitism, and support for social measures gained adherents before 1919. These elements of counterrevolutionary thought and action coalesced in the Liga Patriotica Argentina, founded in 1919. Vigilante squads and military officers who had repressed workers in the Semana Tragica formed the Liga's core. In 1922 the Liga boasted 1500 brigades throughout Argentina and a cohesive organizational structure. Brigade members were largely recruited from the middle sectors and national leaders from the upper class. From 1919 to 1921 the Liga mainly suppressed union activities; afterwards it established social welfare programs, which female ligui stas helped administer. With these programs ix the Liga hoped to convince workers that class struggle was unnecessary. Manuel Carles, the Liga's longtime president, and other members also discussed broader means of class conciliation. The social backgrounds and views of liguistas characterize them as conservatives, primarily concerned with maintaining the status quo. In contrast, the right-wing groups active in the Revolution of 1930, or nationalists, as they called themselves, exhibited both reactionary and counterrevolutionary traits. Except for the Legion de Mayo and Legion Civica Argentina, these groups were small and elitist. Nationalists tended to be young members of interrelated landholding families which had been prominent in the past and at least had retained social prestige. Displaced from decisionmaking roles by the Radical party, they constituted a defunctionalized segment of the political class. Counterrevolutionaries have usually come from such groups doomed by economic and political modernization. Like European counter- revolutionaries, nationalists desired sweeping change and activism, and some were ideological anti-Semites. By the early 1930's some national- ist intellectuals demanded the end of foreign economic domination. In their militant Catholicism, ties to the land, the unwillingness to form a popular base, however, nationalists also resembled reactionaries. Like reactionaries elsewhere, they hoped to re-establish a rigidly hierarchical society buttressed by the Church, local communities, landed estates, and corporatist groups. INTRODUCTION One of the most distinctive features of twentieth-century Argentina, viewed in its Latin American context, has been the pro- minence of the right wing. The revolution of 1930 transformed its government from that of a liberal republic to a corporatist-leaning dictatorship. The conservative and antidemocratic regimes of the 1930's, military and Peronist rule in the 1940's, and the activities of fervent nationalists from these decades to the present have demonstrated the weakness of liberalism and leftism and the ascendancy of the right. Right-wing extremism in Latin America is not peculiar to Argentina; one may cite the Brazilian integralistas , the Mexican cristeros and sinarquistas , and the National Socialist party of Chile, among others. In general, however, such movements have enjoyed periods of importance and then have faded from view, whereas the Argentine right, although rarely large in number, has managed to exert influence on leading intellectuals, politicians, military officers, and priests for over sixty years. Also noteworthy is the fact that the Argentine right lias appropriated the term "nationalism" to refer to its ideas and membership. Nationalism has been a significant factor in the political evolution of many Latin American countries, and yet it has been predominantly leftist-oriented in some of these settings, in contrast to its best-known manifestations in Argentina. A major element in contemporary Argentine history, the right wing clearly merits extensive study. The literature dealing with

  • Film, Photojournalism, and the Public Sphere in Brazil and Argentina, 1955-1980
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: MODERNIZATION AND VISUAL ECONOMY: FILM, PHOTOJOURNALISM, AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE IN BRAZIL AND ARGENTINA, 1955-1980 Paula Halperin, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Directed By: Professor Barbara Weinstein Department of History University of Maryland, College Park My dissertation explores the relationship among visual culture, nationalism, and modernization in Argentina and Brazil in a period of extreme political instability, marked by an alternation of weak civilian governments and dictatorships. I argue that motion pictures and photojournalism were constitutive elements of a modern public sphere that did not conform to the classic formulation advanced by Jürgen Habermas. Rather than treating the public sphere as progressively degraded by the mass media and cultural industries, I trace how, in postwar Argentina and Brazil, the increased production and circulation of mass media images contributed to active public debate and civic participation. With the progressive internationalization of entertainment markets that began in the 1950s in the modern cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Buenos Aires there was a dramatic growth in the number of film spectators and production, movie theaters and critics, popular magazines and academic journals that focused on film. Through close analysis of images distributed widely in international media circuits I reconstruct and analyze Brazilian and Argentine postwar visual economies from a transnational perspective to understand the constitution of the public sphere and how modernization, Latin American identity, nationhood, and socio-cultural change and conflict were represented and debated in those media. Cinema and the visual after World War II became a worldwide locus of production and circulation of discourses about history, national identity, and social mores, and a space of contention and discussion of modernization.

  • SARGENTO VIEJO La Militancia Revolucionaria Y El Exilio De Ernesto
    SARGENTO VIEJO La militancia revolucionaria y el exilio de Ernesto Jauretche Por Guillermo Paileman 1- Comienzos Desde que vio cómo mataron a su superior, Miguel “el Colorado” Zabala Rodriguez, Ernesto Jauretche casi no salía de su casa, y solo una gripe de su hija Soledad le dio valor para pisar la calle y llevarla hasta el Hospital de Niños Ricardo Gutierrez. Él hacía tres años que vivía de forma clandestina, sumergido bajo la superficie, y la caída del Colorado lo hundió aún más. Quedó a la deriva, totalmente desenganchado de su organización: Montoneros. Cada tanto aún creía verlo en el reflejo de alguna vidriera mientras compraba zapatillas para su niña, pero no, él lo había visto morir, al Colorado y a su esposa, cuando este llegaba a su casa de Capital Federal en Lambaré 1080 con su hijita, y un grupo de tareas lo sorprendió. Zabala Rodriguez pidió tregua, que no dispararan, que le permitieran dejar a su hija que llevaba de la mano dentro de la casa, que él se entregaría. Se lo permitieron, le dijo unas palabras al oído a la nena, le dio una palmada y la dejó caminar hasta que se resguardó. Cuando él se dio vuelta, solo y aun rodeado, hizo un ademán para sacar su pistola pero lo acribillaron desde todos los ángulos. SARGENTO VIEJO | 2 A partir de allí, su relación con la organización casi se había esfumado, seguía siendo una figura pública y debía andar con cuidado, pero el malestar de su hija Soledad, que veía una o dos veces al mes, lo convenció de ir al hospital.

  • PERONISM and ANTI-PERONISM: SOCIAL-CULTURAL BASES of POLITICAL IDENTITY in ARGENTINA PIERRE OSTIGUY University of California
    PERONISM AND ANTI-PERONISM: SOCIAL-CULTURAL BASES OF POLITICAL IDENTITY IN ARGENTINA PIERRE OSTIGUY University of California at Berkeley Department of Political Science 210 Barrows Hall Berkeley, CA 94720 [email protected] Paper presented at the LASA meeting, in Guadalajara, Mexico, on April 18, 1997 This paper is about political identity and the related issue of types of political appeals in the public arena. It thus deals with a central aspect of political behavior, regarding both voters' preferences and identification, and politicians' electoral strategies. Based on the case of Argentina, it shows the at times unsuspected but unmistakable impact of class-cultural, and more precisely, social-cultural differences on political identity and electoral behavior. Arguing that certain political identities are social-culturally based, this paper introduces a non-ideological, but socio-politically significant, axis of political polarization. As observed in the case of Peronism and anti-Peronism in Argentina, social stratification, particularly along an often- used compound, in surveys, of socio-economic status and education,1 is tightly associated with political behavior, but not so much in Left-Right political terms or even in issue terms (e.g. socio- economic platforms or policies), but rather in social-cultural terms, as seen through the modes and type of political appeals, and figuring centrally in certain already constituted political identities. Forms of political appeals may be mapped in terms of a two-dimensional political space, defined by the intersection of this social-cultural axis with the traditional Left-to-Right spectrum. Also, since already constituted political identities have their origins in the successful "hailing"2 of pluri-facetted people and groups, such a bi-dimensional space also maps political identities.

Durante el siglo xx, el principal referente del movimiento monárquico Action française repre- sentó para ciertos círculos nacionalistas argentinos una fuente de recetas para interpretar e in- tervenir en el escenario político local. Tras una primera recepción en las décadas iniciales de dicho siglo, luego de su muerte fue recuperado en un renovado clima de ideas donde el catálogo de lecturas del universo naciona- lista se actualizó al calor de la guerra fría y el posperonismo. Es dicho momento el que nos interesa analizar aquí. Nuestra puerta de entrada será el aniversario de su desaparición física celebrado en 1972. La “Comisión Argentina de Homenaje a Charles Maurras en el xx aniversario de su muerte”, encargada de organizar las actividades, contó con la participación de un conjunto de figuras cuyas trayectorias mostraban heterogéneos recorridos y, para la época, apuestas políticas di- vergentes.
