DI PASQUALE, Mariano. Between Political Experimentation and the Circulation of Knowledge: the Administration of Bernardino Rivadavia in Buenos Aires, 1821-1827. Secuencia [online]. 2013, n.87, pp.51-65. ISSN 2395-8464.

This article seeks to analyze the relationship between political action and intellectual climate during the administration of Bernardino Rivadavia in Buenos Aires, 1821-1827. Within this framework, the author considers the emergence of a sphere of political experimentation that seeks to modernize culture as a whole in order to eliminate colonial practices and imaginaries. It also identifies a strong presence of interpersonal contacts with foreign thinkers and a process of intensifying the circulation of knowledge that proved useful to the government project. In this respect, the author seeks to prove that attempts are made to construct legitimization from the constant interaction between the practices introduced by the new political model and the knowledge disseminated close to the Republican matrix.

Palabras llave : Rivadavia group; political experimentation; circulation of knowledge; republicanism; Buenos Aires space; Argentina; 19th century.
