Hernando Cepeda Sánchez, « Reinvenciones del discurso cultural de la nación. La juventud de Bogotá y Buenos Aires de cara al bicentenario de la independencia. (1966 – 1976) (Axe XI, Symposium 40) », HAL-SHS : sociologie, ID : 10670/1.c68fi0
In the middle of the sixties years, processes of imitation and cultural appropriation of the international modern musical wave were developed in Argentina as well as in Colombia. Many local young groups started a cultural fight in order to accede to the fashion in the industrialized countries because the purpose to approach to the modernity, which requires the possession of cultural and materials goods, needed to realized the project. However, the fact that explains better the social agent disposition to adapt themselves to the cultural subject demands require by the international fashion, is the permittivity and the sponsor generated by the internal cultural politics. The chosen cities in order to analyze the adaptation and appropriation process, witnessed important architectural transformations; many spaces addressed to the youth were created and shows and resources were destined to accede to the cultural project. Radio, television and press, were the preferred way to expand and to promote the cultural distribution, until the moment that the movement decided to begin its autonomous existence. This essay has been thought around the event that brings together the Latin American people interest nowadays, owed the emotive celebrations raised in the heat of the independence battle of the beginning of the nineteenth century. For that reason, the main purpose is to establish the bases in order to generate future studies geared by the social imaginaries, which in this case are focused in the thought of an important sector of the youth people, who created and recreated images based in the historical tradition of their own countries. Two aspects clash between each other: the real nation, with all the social and economical adversity, that however are ignored in a first place, in order to allow the entrance of the other aspect of inspiration; the imagined nation. Since 1966 were born the most important protagonists of the local youth in both spaces, promoted for the subject interest of accede to the modernity and the progress saw in the developed countries; their social fight correspond to the purpose of move their nations from the backwardness and the premodernity, because they had raised a different national concept, apart from the real historical motives. Facing this position, the immediately subsequent generations responded, which have decided to halt the entrance of cultural motives beyond the local; they joint themselves to the international cultural movement that also pursuit the folklorist rhythms, which allow that the young from Argentina and Colombia think about the historical tradition. Precisely there appear the division points between the social imaginaries, because the independence battles take over themselves the historical responsibility of the present. The youth artist conceived personal and grouped thoughts over the past, with the goal to inculcate in the other generations what was considered for them the national historical reality.
