Dijo Perón. Un análisis de los discursos de Perón sobre educación física y deportes entre 1950 y 1955

Abstract

In the middle of the last century in Argentina, the government led by Juan Domingo Perón was characterized by deploying a vast advertising device responsible for disseminating government work. The words of the then president were an effective vehicle to achieve that purpose. Indeed, a series of brochures were printed in bulk with the title Perón said. They dealt with the most dissimilar topics, including the place that Physical Education and sports should occupy in the training of citizens in the New Argentina that was being forged. Precisely, the present work tries to investigate in the senses present in the presidential concepts regarding Physical Education and sports.
