Rejuvenecer (y salvar) la nación: el socialismo militar boliviano revisitado
Abstract
El presente artículo analiza las especificidades del antiliberalismo boliviano de la década de 1930 centrando la mirada en la experiencia socialista militar. El autor propone reponer la atmósfera Ideológica, analizar sus tensiones y aprehender las particularidades de este experimento estatal, vinculado íntimamente a la derrota bélica a manos paraguayas, que puso en juego un lenguaje de cambio que incluyó visiones organicistas de la nación que buscaron dejar atrás la democracia liberal.
This article analyses the specificities of Bolivian anti-liberalism in the 1930s, focusing on the experience of "military socialism". It seeks to reconstruct the ideological atmosphere, analyse its inner tensions and capture the particular features of this state experiment which was closely linked to the military defeat in the war against Paraguay, a historical landmark that triggered a discourse of change pregnant with organicistic visions of the nation and a strong rejection of liberal democracy.
