El discurso nacional republicano a escala local: El porvenir. Salamanca(1903-1904)

espanolTras la crisis finisecular y consiguiente cuestionamiento de la idea de nacion construida en el XIX, el nacionalismo republicano unitarista se manifesto como un nacionalismo de caracter movilizador cuyo principal objetivo era socializar en la idea de nacion republicana a una masa social potencialmente creciente. A este fin, la prensa constituyo una herramienta de comunicacion y agitacion politica de primer orden, asociada con exito tanto a los medios tradicionales de accion politica -la tertulia, el comite o el banquete- como a los nuevos usos politicos vinculados a la llamada “politica de masas” -el mitin, la manifestacion o las meriendas democraticas-. EnglishAfter the crisis at the end of the nineteenth century and consequent questioning of the idea of nation built in the nineteenth century, the Unitarian Republican Nationalism manifested as a mobilizing nationalism whose main objective was to socialize a potentially growing social mass into the idea of a republican nation. To this aim, the press was an important tool of communication and political upheaval, associated successfully with traditional means of political action -the social club, the committee or the banquet- as well with new political uses linked to the so-called "mass politicsthe meeting, the demonstration or the democratic tea parties.
