Description
Summary:A part of an ongoing project that aims to explore the political language of the democratic transition, centered on political and cultural journals, in this article we will explore the latinoamericanism in the peronistjournal TestimonioLatinoamericano. Published in the Spanish exile in between 1980 and 1983 by Hugo Chumbita, Alvaro Abós and Jorge Bragulat, the journalaccompanied and positioned in relation to the most important debates of those years while constructing its Latin American identity. We ask ourselves, what does Latin America mean for the journal, how does it appear in its pages? How does Latinamericanism relate to the editorial project? And to exile? Our hypothesis is that during the exile years many publications as part of their struggle against dictatorship and supporting democracy, constructed, with its particularities, a unity myth around Latin America. In this preliminary exercise we will analyze the changes in latinamericanism in the pages of Testimonio.
