ROMAN, Paula E.. Un papel manchado con rouge. “Amorales suburbanos” en el discurso periodístico durante el primer peronismo. La Plata, 1948. Sociohistórica [online]. 2022, n.49, e163. ISSN 1852-1606.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18521606e163.

This paper proposes an approach to representations of “amorales” in the press during the first peronism. Male homosexuality often appeared in the police news related to violent crimes, configuring a stigmatizing point of view which asimilated it to the “bajo fondo”. However, this case study expresses certain nuances in that dominant figure. Following the coverage of a murder, this study shows that its protagonist communed with a set of identifications related to peronism, which prevented him from being registered in the traditional terms of "amoral" as a criminal. This was especially so in the newspaper El Plata, aimed to the working class. Starting from the analysis of the news as public discourse, a set of representations about genders and sexualities are addressed, inscribed in a small town context, which also recovers the neighborhood dynamics as setting.

Palabras clave : Peronism; Homosexuality; Amorales; Press; Gender.
