KARUSH, Matthew B.. Música y nación en la Argentina posperonista. Bol. Inst. Hist. Argent. Am. Dr. Emilio Ravignani [online]. 2019, n.50, pp.198-222. ISSN 0524-9767.

Following the military coup of 1955, anti-Peronist intellectuals reimagined Argentine nationalism to make it compatible with a modernizing cosmopolitanism. Within the realm of popular music, they championed local artists who they believed were reconciling Argentine musical traditions with universal aesthetic values or with sophisticated, foreign trends. This article argues, however, that the advent of rock and roll, disseminated in Argentina by multinational corporations, made this ideological project more complicated by unleashing a flood of what was perceived as low-quality, commercial and foreign music. The Nueva Ola, as the phenomenon was known, associated rock and roll with a range of dance genres from the Caribbean, making it even more problematic for those who sought to reconcile Argentine national identity with the most sophisticated versions of European or North American modernity.
