«Imagine, c’est le socialisme et personne ne s’en va» : l’intelligentsia littéraire est-allemande et la chute du mur de Berlin

En 1989, la Pologne, la Hongrie, la Tchécoslovaquie et la République démocratique allemande (RDA) furent secouées par des mouvements de protestations qui précipitèrent la dissolution de leur régime communiste. Il est souvent admis, dans l’historiographie comme dans la mémoire populaire, que les intellectuels, dont plusieurs écrivains, ont joué un rôle déterminant lors de ces bouleversements. Or, l’analyse de la révolution en Allemagne de l’Est et des prises de position de son intelligentsia littéraire démontre qu’une telle conclusion s’applique mal à cet État : les auteurs phares de la RDA, qui se sont pourtant présentés pendant et après la révolution comme des victimes et des opposants au régime, n’ont jamais partagé les revendications anticommunistes de leurs concitoyens et ont conservé un discours socialiste. Ce mémoire entend expliquer cette réaction particulière des écrivains les mieux établis de l’Allemagne de l’Est – soit Christa Wolf, Heiner Müller, Stefan Heym, Volker Braun et Christoph Hein. En étudiant leurs textes non fictifs et en analysant la relation qu’ils entretenaient avec le régime, la population et l’idéologie promue en RDA, nous démontrerons que ces auteurs avaient développé, avant l’ouverture du mur de Berlin, une stratégie d’action alliant loyauté socialiste et critique de l’autoritarisme, ce qui leur avait permis de cumuler un important capital social et culturel. À l’automne 1989 et lors du processus de réunification allemande, l’intelligentsia littéraire a en fait agi en fonction de cette même stratégie ; celle-ci, toutefois, n’était pas adaptée aux nouvelles conditions sociales.

Teatteri liikkeessä : Työväenteatterit Suomen teatterikentällä ja työväenliikkeessä kaksiteatterijärjestelmän syntyyn asti vuonna 1922

Workers' theatres in Finland until 1922 The topic of this dissertation is the workers' theatres in Finland before the year 1922. The main question is: why did these amateur theatres within the workers' associations become part of the professional theatre field in the 1910s by getting state subsidy as local theatre institutions? How is it possible that they received this status even after the civil war in 1918 when new professional theatres were founded all over the country? The study also asks, what kind of position did workers' theatres have in the workers' associations and in the workers' movement, what did the Social Democrats and Communists think of theatre and in particular of workers' theatre, and what kind of repertoire did the workers' theatres perform? It is a particular feature of Finland that the professional theatre field was not organised and that the workers’ movement had a relatively strong political position. The study concludes that some workers' theatres were the only steady theatre institutions in their surroundings, and thus functioned as local popular theatres performing to all social groups. Although amateur-based, they started to resemble professional theatres. Even though the Social Democratic Party did not have a specific theatre policy, the leaders of the Party appreciated and supported the workers' theatres as educational institutions and worked for their artistic improvement. The workers' theatres were also largely approved of and seen as people's theatres thought to unite and educate the nation and the working class. This reveals the need for national consensus, in the 1910s against the Russian government who worked to dissolve the autonomous position of the Finnish state, and after the civil war (1918) against the threat of a communist revolution. A wave of agitating proletarian theatre was felt in Finland in the early 1920s but it was marginalised by the large anti-communist majority.

Kirkko, Kekkonen ja kommunismi poliittisina kriisivuosina 1958-1962

This study explores the relationship of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland to communism and political power during the period of crises in Finnish foreign relations with the Soviet Union from 1958 to 1962. During this period the USSR repeatedly interfered in Finland´s domestic affairs and limited her foreign political freedom of action. The research subjects for this dissertation are the bishops of the Church of Finland and the newspaper Kotimaa, which can be regarded as the unofficial organ of the church at the time. A typical characteristic of the Church of Finland from the beginning of the twentieth century was patriotism. During the interwar years the church was strongly anti-communist and against the Soviet Union. This tendency was also evident during the Second World War. After the war the Finnish Church feared that the rise of the extreme left would jeopardize its position. The church, however, succeeded in maintaining its status as a state church throughout the critical years immediately following the war. This study indicates that, although the manner of expression altered, the political attitude of the church did not substantially change during the postwar period. In the late 1950s and early 1960s the church was still patriotic and fear of the extreme left was also evident among the leaders of the church. The victory of the Finnish People's Democratic League in the general election of 1958 was an unwelcome surprise to the church. This generated fear in the church that, with Soviet support, the Finnish communists might return to governmental power and the nation could become a people's democracy. Accordingly, the church tried to encourage other parties to set aside their disagreements and act together against the extreme left throughout the period under study. The main characteristics of the church´s political agenda during this period of crisis were to support the Finnish foreign policy led by the president of the republic, Urho Kekkonen, and to resist Finnish communism. The attitude of Finnish bishops and the newspaper Kotimaa to the Cold War in general was generally in agreement with the majority of western Christians. They feared communism, were afraid of the USSR, but supported peaceful co-existence because they did not want an open conflict with the Soviets. Because of uncertainties in Finland's international position the Finnish Church regarded it as necessary to support the Finnish policy of friendship towards the USSR. The Finnish Church considerer it unwise to openly criticize the Soviet Union, tried resist the spread of communism in Finnish domestic policy. This period of foreign policy crises was principally seen by the church as a time when there was a need to strengthen Finland's unstable national position.

O traidor vermelho: O Jornal e o discurso anticomunista (1935-1937)

O objetivo central dessa dissertação é investigar como se configurou o discurso anticomunista nos editoriais e colunas políticas de O Jornal entre 1935 a 1937. A quarta década do século XX foi um período marcado pelo crescente aumento do autoritarismo governamental de Getúlio Vargas, culminando na outorgação do Estado Novo, em novembro de 1937. Busca-se, portanto, através da análise das colunas políticas e dos editoriais do matutino, perceber os principais temas utilizados pelos articulistas na criação de uma imagem maligna do comunismo e dos seus adeptos, e como o periódico legitimava as ações repressivas do governo de Getúlio Vargas. Logra-se também apreender a constituição do mito político da conspiração comunista e do herói salvífico, percebido em Getúlio Vargas e da desconstrução do mito do Cavaleiro da Esperança, encarnado na figura de Luiz Carlos Prestes, principal líder comunista da época. Também se objetiva compreender o momento histórico da imprensa brasileira entre os anos 1920 e 1930, estudando, especificamente, a trajetória histórica de O Jornal e do pensamento do seu proprietário, o Sr. Assis Chateaubriand.

Construção do pensamento autoritário anticomunista no Exército brasileiro nas páginas da revista Nação Armada (1939-1947)

Através da análise da revista Nação Armada, publicação de caráter civil-militar dedicada a Segurança Nacional, publicada pelo Exército brasileiro entre 1939 e 1947, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo compreender o processo de construção de um pensamento autoritário e anticomunista no Exército brasileiro neste período, e medir a contribuição do periódico Nação Armada neste processo. Utilizando a Nação Armada como fio condutor, procuramos remontar as formas de pensamento dos homens da época, tendo o mesmo cuidado em analisar conceitos como o de autoritarismo. Metodologicamente, adotamos primeiramente uma abordagem hermenêutica, quando todos os dados relacionados à publicação da Nação Armada (editores, tiragem, formato, autores, artigos, etc.), foram exaustivamente levantados e organizados, e em seguida passamos a uma abordagem heurística, quando passamos à crítica interna do conteúdo da Nação Armada, analisando os conceitos e discursos mais recorrentes. Contextualizamos nossa circunscrição temporal e temática à Era Vargas, e ao momento internacional. Trouxemos à discussão fatos históricos pontuais e locais, cronologicamente anteriores à publicação de Nação Armada, como a Intentona Comunista de 1935, bem como processos mais abrangentes e internacionais como a crise do sistema político liberal, a Segunda Guerra Mundial e o comunismo. Autores como Azevedo Amaral, Francisco Campos e Oliveira Vianna nos forneceram um arcabouço primordial para o entendimento de uma ideologia autoritária no Brasil na primeira metade do século XX. Dentre as várias ramificações que o presente trabalho apresentou, em virtude de período tão rico e transformador da história nacional e mundial, adotamos uma hipótese principal, que vai ao sentido de um processo contínuo de elaboração de ideário anticomunista e autoritário no Exército brasileiro através de construções simbólicas, e de tradições inventadas.

LISA SERGIO: HOW MUSSOLINI'S "GOLDEN VOICE" OF PROPAGANDA CREATED AN AMERICAN MASS COMMUNICATION CAREER

In 1937 Lisa Sergio, "The Golden Voice" of fascist broadcasting from Rome, fled Italy for the United States. Though her mother was American, Sergio was classified as an enemy alien once the United States entered World War II. Yet Sergio became a U.S. citizen in 1944 and built a successful career in radio, working first at NBC and then WQXR in New York City in the days when women's voices were not thought to be appropriate for news or "serious" programming. When she was blacklisted as a communist in the early 1950s, Sergio compensated for the loss of radio employment by becoming principally an author and lecturer in Washington, D.C., until her death in 1989. This dissertation, based on her personal papers, is the first study of Sergio's American mass communication career. It points out the personal, political and social obstacles she faced as a woman in her 52-year career as a commentator on varied aspects of world affairs, religion and feminism. This study includes an examination of the FBI investigations of Sergio and the anti-communist campaigns conducted against her. It concludes that Sergio's success as a public communicator was predicated on both her unusual talents and her ability to transform her public image to reflect ideal American values of womanhood in shifting political climates.

Les impacts des stratégies patronales antisyndicales sur l’organisation des travailleurs

L’utilisation de stratégies antisyndicales est un phénomène de plus en plus préconisé par l’acteur patronal (Bronfenbrenner, 2009b). Une piste d’explication de cette croissance serait liée à l’idéologie de gestion se basant sur une amertume inhérente à l’idée de partager le pouvoir avec une tierce partie représentant des travailleurs (Dundon et al., 2006). Dans le but de faire régner cette idéologie et de conserver un environnement de travail sans présence syndicale, des multinationales se sont même positionnées ouvertement contre la syndicalisation, que l’on pense à Wal-Mart, Mc Donald’s ou Disney (Dundon et al., 2006). Avec cette puissance que les multinationales détiennent actuellement, il ne fait nul doute qu’elles exercent une influence auprès des dirigeants des plus petites entreprises (Dundon et al., 2006), ce qui pourrait expliquer ce recours accru aux stratégies antisyndicales, que ce soit avant ou après l’accréditation syndicale. Mais qu’en est-il de l’antisyndicalisme de l’acteur patronal en sol canadien? Pour certains, les employeurs canadiens pratiqueraient davantage une stratégie d’acceptation du syndicalisme comparativement à nos voisins du sud à cause notamment de la plus forte présence syndicale historique dans le système des relations industrielles canadien, des tactiques syndicales canadiennes différentes (Thomason & Pozzebon, 1998) et des lois encadrant davantage les droits d’association et de négociation collective (Boivin, 2010; Thomason & Pozzebon, 1998). Des travaux montrent cependant une réelle volonté de la part des employeurs canadiens à avoir recours à des stratégies d’opposition à la syndicalisation (Bentham, 2002; Martinello & Yates, 2002; Riddell, 2001). Selon les auteurs Martinello et Yates (2002), six pour cent (6 %) des employeurs ontariens couverts dans le cadre de leur étude n’auraient adopté aucune tactique pour éviter ou éliminer le syndicat : quatre-vingt-quatorze pour cent (94 %) des employeurs couverts ont ainsi utilisé différentes tactiques pour s’opposer au syndicalisme. C’est donc dire que l’opposition patronale face au mouvement syndical révélée par l’utilisation de diverses stratégies antisyndicales est aussi présente chez les employeurs canadiens. Peu d’études canadiennes et québécoises ont pourtant enrichi la littérature au sujet de ce phénomène. De manière générale, les travaux effectués sur la question, anglo-saxons et surtout américains, font principalement état du type de stratégies ainsi que de leur fréquence d’utilisation et proposent souvent une méthodologie basée sur une recension des décisions des tribunaux compétents en la matière ou l’enquête par questionnaire. Face à ces constats, nous avons visé à contribuer à la littérature portant sur les stratégies antisyndicales et nous avons construit un modèle d’analyse nous permettant de mieux cerner leurs effets sur les travailleurs et les syndicats. Notre recherche se démarque également de la littérature de par les démarches méthodologiques qu’elle propose. Nous avons en effet réalisé une recherche de nature qualitative, plus spécifiquement une étude de cas d’une entreprise multiétablissement du secteur du commerce au détail. Notre modèle d’analyse nous permet de dégager des constats quant aux effets de l’utilisation des stratégies patronales antisyndicales auprès des travailleurs visés et du syndicat visé, que ce soit sur les intérêts individuels, les intérêts collectifs ainsi que sur les intérêts du syndicat tels que proposés par Slinn (2008b). Également, nous cherchions à comprendre dans quelle mesure les stratégies antisyndicales contribuent à diminuer (effet paralysant) ou à augmenter (effet rebond) la propension à la syndicalisation des travailleurs visés par les stratégies, tout en tenant compte de la propension des travailleurs d’autres succursales qui n’étaient pas visés directement par cette utilisation (effet d’entraînement). Pour atteindre nos objectifs de recherche, nous avons procédé en trois phases. La phase 1 a permis de faire la recension de la littérature et de formuler des propositions théoriques à vérifier sur le terrain. La phase 2 a permis de procéder à la collecte de données grâce aux entrevues semi-dirigées réalisées à deux niveaux d’analyse : auprès de représentants syndicaux et de travailleurs. Au cours de la phase 3, nous avons procédé à la retranscription des entrevues effectuées et nous avons analysé les principaux résultats obtenus. La méthode de l’appariement logique (Yin, 2009) a été utilisée pour comparer les phénomènes observés (données issues du terrain) aux phénomènes prédits (constats de la littérature et propositions théoriques). À la suite de la réalisation de la phase 3, nous constatons que la campagne de peur a été celle qui a été la plus utilisée en réaction à la menace de présence syndicale avec les tactiques dites coercitives qui la composent : la fermeture de deux succursales, un discours devant un auditoire captif, la diffusion d’une vidéo interne, etc. De ce fait, un sentiment de peur généralisé (86 % des répondants) s’attaquant aux intérêts collectifs a été perçu à la suite de l’utilisation des tactiques antisyndicales. Par conséquent, nous avons pu observer l’effet de ces tactiques sur les travailleurs visés et sur le syndicat : elles auraient en effet gelé la propension de travailleurs d’autres succursales à se syndiquer (64 % des répondants) et donc freiné la campagne syndicale en cours. Nous constatons également que bon nombre de tactiques ont été déployées à la suite de l’accréditation syndicale en s’attaquant aux intérêts individuels. Mentionnons, pour n’en citer que quelques-uns, que les travailleurs feraient face à une plus forte discipline (72 % des répondants), qu’ils seraient victimes d’intimidation ou de menaces (80 % des répondants) et que ces tactiques provoquèrent des démissions à cause de l’ambiance de travail alourdie (50 % des répondants).

Influencia de las migraciones protestantes estadounidenses en los partidos políticos PAN y ARENA. Caso: México y El Salvador

La presente investigación, tiene como objetivo analizar a partir de la segunda oleada migratoria de misiones protestantes norteamericanas hacia el centro y sur de América a finales de los 80s, la incidencia de estas en la organización interna, las estrategias para acceder al poder y el proyecto político de los partidos políticos, Partido de Acción Nacional (PAN) de México y Partido Alianza Republicana Nacionalista (ARENA) de El Salvador. Esta investigación pretende determinar la influencia de estas migraciones en la construcción, consolidación o transformación de los partidos políticos anteriormente mencionados, llegando así a una notoria tendencia derechista de estos en la actualidad, partiendo de que ambos partidos como ideología política son conservadores, y cuentan con una fuerte influencia republicana, sin dejar de lado una democracia cristiana y un propósito anticomunista.

Tres experiencias para pensar la educación en derechos humanos en Colombia

A lo largo de esta investigación se analizaron comparativamente tres experiencias auto-definidas como de Educación en Derechos Humanos, a saber, una organización no gubernamental, la Escuela de Derechos Humanos de Cinep; un colegio oficial de la ciudad de Bogotá, la IED Eduardo Umaña Mendoza; y un movimiento social, el Movimiento Nacional de Víctimas de Crímenes de Estado-Capítulo Bogotá. En lo fundamental, se analizaron los procesos de constitución de cada escenario, los discursos, y las prácticas políticas y pedagógicas a la luz de un enfoque antropológico de la Educación en Derechos Humanos. Lo que he denominado el enfoque o mirada antropológica de esta noción, implica, por una parte, una aproximación etnográfica alrededor de los discursos, las prácticas y los sentidos que los protagonistas movilizan en cada escenario con respecto a lo educativo, a los Derechos Humanos y a los sentidos de la Educación en Derechos Humanos, y por otra, la distinción entre la diversidad de redes de significado que precedieron su proceso de institucionalización, a lo cual denominaré campo simbólico, y su cohesión como un campo de saber dotado de claves analíticas propias. Campo simbólico y campo de saber operan como dos momentos analíticos diferenciables. A través del primero, se hacen evidentes las representaciones políticas, sociales y culturales heredadas del “mundo bipolar” y de la guerra fría que en términos generales exponen una defensa a ultranza de los valores y principios de la democracia liberal y de la lucha anti-comunista. Por otra parte, la noción de campo de saber permite 6 esbozar las trayectorias que le han permitido a la Educación en Derechos Humanos recrear nociones como la de sujeto de derechos o pedagogías de la memoria, claves que sin lugar a dudas cohesionan un cuerpo de saber ciertamente autónomo, dotado de fronteras porosas y móviles. La distinción entre una y otra esfera de análisis permite trazar cuando menos tres rutas de emergencia e institucionalización de la Educación en Derechos Humanos que, como se expondrá en el análisis de las experiencias, no trascurren paralelamente sino en medio de superposiciones, intersticios y desplazamientos. Así, se hacen plausibles las huellas del colonialismo, permanentemente ligadas a voces disonantes que eventualmente arrojan pistas en torno a una Educación en Derechos Humanos capaz de impugnar su propia institucionalización.

"Não compre, plante"? A tipificação penal das situações de cultivo de Canábis pelo Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo

A Lei nº 11.343 de 23 de agosto de 2006 (Lei de Drogas) instituiu o Sistema Nacional de Políticas Públicas sobre Drogas e criou as diretrizes para a política de drogas brasileira. Dentre o conjunto de medidas trazidas pela lei em seu dispositivo criminal está a criação de um tipo penal específico de cultivo de plantas para produção de drogas para consumo pessoal (art. 28, §1º). O plantio para consumo recebe o mesmo tratamento jurídico-penal que o porte para consumo (art. 28), sendo previstas sanções alternativas à privação de liberdade. O §2º do art. 28 da Lei de Drogas estabelece os critérios que as autoridades competentes do sistema de justiça criminal deverão considerar na tipificação penal das situações de cultivo. Este trabalho se debruça sobre a tipificação penal de situações de cultivo de canábis em acórdãos do Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo. A problemática de pesquisa aqui desenvolvida discute especificamente quais são os argumentos e como eles são apresentados nas decisões para justificar a determinação de que uma situação de cultivo é para fins de tráfico ou de consumo pessoal. O trabalho busca identificar como os critérios do §2º do art. 28 da Lei de Drogas são apresentados na fundamentação de decisões judiciais em que se discute na esfera criminal se uma situação de cultivo é para “consumo pessoal” ou “destinada a terceiros”. Uma pergunta central norteia a pesquisa realizada: quais os elementos e de que forma eles são utilizados nas decisões analisadas para tipificação do plantio para consumo pessoal (art. 28, §1º, da Lei de Drogas) e do plantio destinado a fornecer drogas a terceiros (art. 33, §1º, II)? Para enfrentar a problemática de pesquisa utilizamos a ferramenta de busca de acórdãos disponibilizada no sítio eletrônico do Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo. Foram analisados 135 acórdãos do TJSP que enfrentam diretamente a controvérsia relativa à tipificação penal de situações de cultivo de canábis. Os acórdãos foram proferidos entre os anos de 1998 e 2014 e foram selecionados segundo os critérios especificados no capítulo metodológico da dissertação. Os resultados quantitativos da pesquisa dizem respeito às informações gerais dos processos, elementos de prova mencionados nos acórdãos, características das situações de cultivo e fundamentação da tipificação penal. A discussão qualitativa sobre os resultados da pesquisa é promovida em quatro frentes: (i) interpretação e valoração da quantidade de drogas; (ii) antecedentes criminais, circunstâncias da prisão e do agente; (iii) materiais de venda e outros elementos relevantes na tipificação penal; e (iv) características do conjunto probatório. As questões discutidas nestas frentes circunscrevem o problema de pesquisa e é a partir delas que é feita a análise apresentada neste trabalho. Esperamos conseguir contribuir para melhor compreensão (i) da determinação da finalidade do cultivo e (ii) das implicações jurídicas que decorrem da opção legislativa pela não utilização de critérios quantitativos na definição dos crimes de tráfico de drogas e plantio para consumo.

Retorica e mito in Giambattista Vico

The purpose of this thesis is to show that Vico had the constant aim, remained unaltered in time, to support the usefulness of Rhetoric. The awareness of the strength acquired by the “anti-rhetorical” movements, particularly by the Cartesians and the Logicians from Port-Royal, obliged Vico to elaborate some strategies and counter-moves that, little by little, became more and more complex and refined, till they inspired his main work, The New Science. By taking into consideration the most significant aspects of Vico’s speculation (topic, tropes, the formation of language, the development of human thought, the new conception of philology ), this work shows that they are part of a strategy worked out by the Neapolitan philosopher, in order to demonstrate the validity, the usefulness and the modernity of Rhetoric. Every aspect of Vico’s thought reaches its peak when Vico formulates his theory about myths, which he interprets as an expression of the primitive man’s necessities and demands. The point of view expressed by this doctorate thesis emphasizes that, despite the inevitable modifications that have taken place through the centuries, Vico’s thought keeps its substantial unity. So those subjects that critical literature tends to separate are, in reality, linked and unified.

Movement control of manipulative tasks in patients with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome

When a hand-held object is moved, grip and load force are accurately coordinated for establishing grasp stability. In the present work, the question was raised whether patients with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (TS), who show tic-like movements, are impaired in grip-load force control when executing a manipulative task. To this end, we assessed force regulation during action patterns that required rhythmical unimanual or bimanual (iso-directional/anti-directional) movements. Results showed that the profile of grip-load force ratio was characterized by maxima and minima that were realized at upward and downward hand positions, respectively. TS patients showed increased force ratios during unimanual and bimanual movements, compared with control subjects, indicative of an inaccurate specification of the precision grip. Functional imaging data complemented the behavioural results and revealed that secondary motor areas showed no (or greatly reduced) activation in TS patients when executing the movement tasks as compared with baseline conditions. This indicates that the metabolic level in the secondary motor areas was equal during rest and task performance. At the neuronal level, this observation suggests that these cortical areas were continuously involved in movement preparation. Based on these data, we conclude that the ongoing activation of secondary motor areas may be explained by the TS patients' involuntary urges to move. Accordingly, interference will prevent an accurate planning of voluntary behaviour. Together, these findings reveal modulations in movement organization in patients with TS and exemplify degrading consequences for manual function.

On the Role of Copyright Protection in the Information Society

In January 2012, Poland witnessed massive protests, both in the streets and on the Internet, opposing ratification of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, which triggered a wave of strong anti-ACTA movements across Europe. In Poland, these protests had further far-reaching consequences, as they not only changed the initial position of the government on the controversial treaty but also actually started a public debate on the role of copyright law in the information society. Moreover, as a result of these events the Polish Ministry for Administration and Digitisation launched a round table, gathering various stakeholders to negotiate a potential compromise with regard to copyright law that would satisfy conflicting interests of various actors. This contribution will focus on a description of this massive resentment towards ACTA and a discussion of its potential reasons. Furthermore, the mechanisms that led to the extraordinary influence of the anti-ACTA movement on the governmental decisions in Poland will be analysed through the application of models and theories stemming from the social sciences. The importance of procedural justice in the copyright legislation process, especially its influence on the image of copyright law and obedience of its norms, will also be emphasised.

"Sino el espanto" : Temas, prácticas y alianzas de los anticomunismos de derecha en Argentina entre 1955 y 1966

Este artículo se concentra en la vida política de algunas organizaciones anticomunistas de derecha en Argentina entre 1955 y 1966: se intenta poner de manifiesto la pluralidad de tradiciones anticomunistas presentes en el país, así como algunas de las diferentes vinculaciones internacionales de las que participaban. A partir de la consulta a fuentes periodísticas, oficiales y de la inteligencia policial, se reunió información para reconstruir las posturas ideológicas, las lecturas sobre los problemas sociales y culturales argentinos y algunas de las actividades políticas lideradas (o acompañadas) por diversos actores anticomunistas. Este período se caracteriza por una súbita coronación del anticomunismo en los discursos políticos, al punto de desplazar o subsumir una preocupación sobre el peronismo, originariamente más relevante. El anticomunismo terminó convirtiéndose en una pieza clave en la articulación entre las distintas familias de derecha.
