Abstract
The dictatorships of Brazil (1964-1985) and Argentina (1976-1983) were institutional dictatorships of the Armed Forces, characterized by their appeal to the National Security Doctrine (NSD) as an ideological foundation. The NSD postulated the defense of the nation and national identity. The emphasis on these two elements becomes significant to study the representations of the nation under these dictatorships.
The proposal of this thesis is to make a comparative socio-historical interpretation of the representations of the nation made by dictatorships in Brazil and Argentina. Those representations helped legitimize the dictatorships in their quest to create a new order through a modernization from above. In this sense, we intend to work from historical sociology. We identify the problems to be studied from the dual perspective of sociology -take the sociological problem from certain conceptual machine- and historiography -anchor and derive the historical problem of the logic of events and processes occurring in a place and a given time.
We take as reference points the patriotic celebrations, focusing on the celebration of the Proclamation of Independence (September 7, 1822) in Brazil and the Revolution of May (May 25, 1810) in Argentina. These two moments were foundational milestones in the constitution of the nation in each country. We also study the representations of the nation taking as corpus, references to the patriotic celebrations in the newspapers O Estado de São Paulo (OESP) and Jornal do Brasil (JB) in Brazil and La Nación (LN) and Clarín in Argentina.
Based on the identification of a common way of representing the nation in both dictatorships (the nation as opposed to all the evils attached to the "enemy"), the thesis aims to show differences in the subject defined as enemy (communism in Brazil and subversion in Argentina) (Chapter 1); regarding the uses of history (future and greatness in Brazil and past glory in Argentina) (Chapter 2); and regarding the logic of exercise of power prevailing in each case (the logic of negotiation in Brazil and the logic of negation in Argentina) (Chapter 3).
