The Three Stages of Paris Commune in Buenos Aires

This essay aim is to study the reception of Paris Commune in Buenos Aires newspapers. Despite the social and political impact, it would have later on, the press barely reflected the facts when they were happening. A more extended analysis shows that the Commune became a “news” over three moments. A univocal account could not take form and the published information was confused and scattered while the events were taken place (1871). Afterwards (1875), a specific event -when the Colegio del Salvador was set on fire- brought out a consistent and defined history, which served to weigh up local events. Around 1897, some intellectuals and journalists produced a change in its evocation and contributed to make it a milestone for local left´s movements. This reception “in three stages” also allows a better understanding both of conditions and effects of global news circulation in Buenos Aires press of the last third of XIXth.

Keywords : Paris Commune; Global News; Buenos Aires Periodical Press; News Impact.
