La utilización de la Historia para convalidar gobiernos autoritarios es un asunto que ha tenido múltiples abordajes. No son comunes, en cambio, investigaciones sobre los relatos de carácter pretérito elaborados por los propios autócratas. El objetivo de este artículo es “escuchar” la “voz de los dictadores” para revisar sus interpretaciones históricas e identificar las estrategias utilizadas para hacerlas funcionales a sus intereses. Se propone un análisis comparado de textos de Francisco Franco (España, 1939-1975) y Alfredo Stroessner (Paraguay, 1954-1989) referidos a la h(H)istoria. Se trata de dos casos razonablemente parangonables cuyo examen permite establecer ciertas regularidades.

The use of History to validate authoritarian governments is an issue that has been approached in many ways. On the other hand, research on the narratives of a past character elaborated by the autocrats themselves is not common. The aim of this article is to "listen" to the "voice of the dictators" in order to review their historical interpretations and identify the strategies used to make them functional to their interests. A comparative analysis of texts by Francisco Franco (Spain, 1939-1975) and Alfredo Stroessner (Paraguay, 1954-1989) referring to h(H)istory is proposed.
