Proyección y política cultural estadounidense en Argentina (1928 – 1941)

Abstract: The objective of this article is to analyze some aspects of the origins of the United States’ cultural policy in Argentina. Attention will be focused on the passage from President Hoover’s declarations -that contributed to a favorable and propitious climate for the intensification of interchange- to the first definite steps taken during Roosevelt’s presidency. Specifically, an attempt will be made to individualize the characteristics of the cooperation established between American and Argentine organizations in order to favor the United States’ cultural projection and cultural exchange between the United States and Argentina; a nation where the diffusion of anti-imperialist sentiments was intensifying, and that was the objective of particularly aggressive forms of propaganda by totalitarian regimes.
