Abstract

YUSZCZYK, Erica. The Coups d'état and the Media. Córdoba 1955: Los Principios in Front of the "Revolución Libertadora". Andamios [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.23, pp.329-356. ISSN 2594-1917.

In this work we show how the media play a fundamental role in the construction of historical "events" at the same time that "legitimize" and "conceal" their own political-ideological positions. Based on a contrastive analysis of three publishing houses of the catholic paper Los Principios, published in 1955, we found that its political position and the coup d'état are concealed in a religious speech, where the military action is shown as the duty to protect God's will in the educative spheres corrupted by the "dictadura". Thus, it was not a "chance" that the "ley de enseñanza libre" was announced in the months following the "revolución". This law authorized catholic universities from Argentina to issue university certificates.

Keywords : Ideological and Discursive Formations; Contractive Analysis; Coup d'état; Media; Córdoba.
