| description |
This article aims to contribute to the study of the construction of the relationship between the rosismo and the afroporteña population, focusing particularly on the strategies employed to gain their support. The work develops from the hypothesis that this group’s support, along with other aspects of the regime, had to be built and negotiated. In order to study this hypothesis, it analyzes a particular period of crisis, the government of Juan Ramón Balcarce in 1833, when Rosas leaves the government and a fight breaks out between two federal factions, which acquired special virulence in the city of Buenos Aires. The population of African origin was an important component of the subaltern sectors of the city, and therefore, to obtain their support seemed to be a central objective of the political opponents of the moment, especially -but not exclusively- of the rosismo. Within this population, the study centers on the search for the support of the militias of free black men called “Defensores de Buenos Aires”.To shed light on this point, on one hand, the article evaluates the works that referred to the relationship of the afroporteños with the rosismo. On the other hand, it briefly narrates the context that resulted in the “revolución de los restauradores” in October of 1833, to then present the mentions of the contact with the afroporteña population in the press and correspondence of that moment. Finally, it examines the discourses of the press that pretended to represent the voice of the afroporteños, analyzing the figures and topics that were used to obtain their support and tracking the references to the “Defensores de Buenos Aires” regiment. |

Este artículo se propone contribuir al estudio de la construcción de la relación entre el rosismo y la población afroporteña, centrándose particularmente en las estrategias que empleó aquél -principalmente la prensa- para ganarse el apoyo de esta población. El trabajo parte de la hipótesis que el apoyo de los africanos y afrodescendientes, al igual que otros aspectos del régimen, también debió ser construido y negociado. Para estudiar dicha hipótesis se analiza en particular una coyuntura de crisis, el gobierno de Juan Ramón Balcarce en 1833, cuando Rosas sale del gobierno y se desata una lucha entre dos facciones federales que adquirió especial virulencia en la ciudad de Buenos Aires. La población de origen africano era una parte importante de los sectores subalternos de esta ciudad y por lo tanto conseguir su respaldo parece haber sido un objetivo de los contrincantes políticos del momento, especialmente -pero no únicamente- del rosismo. Dentro de esta población, el estudio se centra en la búsqueda del apoyo del regimiento de milicias de hombres de color libres denominado “Defensores de Buenos Aires”. Para dar cuenta de ello, en primer lugar, se evalúan los trabajos que han reparado en la relación de los afroporteños con el rosismo. En segundo lugar, se relata brevemente el contexto que derivó en la “Revolución de los Restauradores” en octubre de 1833 para luego exponer las menciones sobre el contacto entre la población afroporteña y las distintas facciones en la prensa y la correspondencia en dicho momento. Por último, se examinan los discursos de la prensa que pretendían representar la voz de los afroporteños, analizando las figuras y tópicos a los que se apelaba para obtener su apoyo y rastreando las referencias al Regimiento “Defensores de Buenos Aires”.
