description | Extensively studied by historians, the centenary of independence has mostly been analyzed from its commemoration in the capital, a perspective which manifests so much that it reproduces the strong centralism exercised by the capital over the rest of the country. Now if we can consider the commemoration of the centenary as a key moment in the construction of nationals imaginaries, it is also a moment of strong centralization of this process by the capital, and thus a moment that crystallizes a series of tensions between the same centralizing capital and the rest of the country. The ambition of the work proposed here is to provide a “provincial” analysis of the commemoration from the study of this historical event in the press of the two “seconds” cities of Mexico and Peru, respectively Guadalajara and Arequipa. This approach should enable us, by confronting the discourse of the elites of the secondary cities to that emitted by the centre, to understand the tensions and issues of these commemorations, and to re-question the process of national building in Latin America. |
