Unitarios y federales constituyeron las dos facciones más importantes que tuvo la Argentina durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Nuestro objeto es demostrar que la historiografía precedente ha erigido, en torno a ellas, la construcción monolítica y antinómica de dos facciones políticas, que, más que reflejar la realidad histórica, evidencia la manipulación –consciente e inconsciente– del pasado y la polarización política imperante de los tiempos en que dichas corrientes historiográficas construían su propia legitimación discursiva.
Abstract
Unitarians and Federalists made up the two most important factions in Argentina during the first half of the 19th century. Our goal is to show that the previous historiography has constructed a monolithic and antinomian image of these two political factions that, more than reflecting the historic reality, make evident the manipulation – conscious or unconscious – of the past and the prevailing political polarization in times in which these historiographical currents were building their own discursive legitimation.
