Resumen
El fenómeno de la sacralización de la política en la configuración de identidades nacional-populares constituye un objeto de estudio instalado en historiografías europeas, pero aún no consolidado en otros ámbitos. Este trabajo ensaya un aporte en esa clave centrado en la interpretación del pasado revolucionario de la Unión Cívica Radical (UCR) en la etapa de su llegada al poder en Argentina, momento en el cual la exaltación de sus muertos como mártires de una causa de regeneración se asoció a su éxito electoral y al proceso de democratización. Mediante el análisis de las principales formulaciones intelectuales de esa secuencia histórica, de conmemoraciones ritualizadas organizadas por la UCR a lo largo de una década y media, así como de una serie de acontecimientos particularmente conflictivos, se apela a un conjunto de fuentes que incluye, en especial, a la prensa militante y a la opositora, escritos de más largo aliento e imágenes que ilustran esas instancias. La hipótesis del artículo expresa que ese pasado revolucionario reflejó la popularidad del radicalismo pero luego se tornó particularmente problemático cuando los antagonismos intra y extrapartidarios derivaron en el golpe de Estado de 1930.
The sacralization of politics as a central phenomenon in the configuration of national-popular identities is a well established subject matter in European historiography, but it is not yet consolidated elsewhere. Applying that theory, this article focuses on the interpretation of the Unión Cívica Radical’s (UCR) revolutionary past during its accession to power in Argentina. The exaltation of their dead as ‘martyrs’ of a regeneration cause was often associated with its electoral success and the democratization process followed by the party. We analize the main intellectual formulations during this historical period, of the ritualized commemorations organized by the UCR, and of a series of particularly conflicting events. In that matter, we took into consideration partisan and opposing media pieces, texts of a wide scope and images which illustrate the period. The article hypothesis states that the revolutionary past of Radicalism was initially embodied in the popularity of the party, though it later became problematic when antagonisms within and outside the UCR led to the 1930 coup d’état.
