ROJKIND, Inés. "Street Government": Newspapers, Mobilizations and Politics in Buenos Aires in the 1900s. Secuencia [online]. 2012, n.84, pp.99-123. ISSN 2395-8464.

This study analyzes the link between the press, political opposition and street mobilization in Buenos Aires in the early 1900s. It explores the forms and meanings of a dynamic of political protest created during this period, which contributed to questioning the legitimacy of the conservative regime established in 1880. This dynamic was based on the campaigns launched in the newspapers and was expressed in the form of popular demonstrations and protests that included the use of physical and verbal violence. The aim is to provide a fresh perspective on the politics of the time, by analyzing not only the construction from the top of a hegemonic political system but also the characteristics of a political life that developed at the bottom in a far more vigorous, varied manner than classical interpretations suggested.

Palavras-chave : Conservative regime; political life; Buenos Aires; press; street demonstrations.
