Sumario:This text analyzes the repressive mechanisms and the ideological and discursive devices used by that organization in Territorio Nacional de La Pampa, with the purpose to make a contribution to the historiography that, from different approaches, has studied this organization performance. We seek to approach the forms through which the parastatal repressive practices took against mobilized workers during 1919-1922 period. For that, we inquired in the relations that exist between the Liga, the elites and state institutions, like the police and judicial power of the Territorio. With this objective, we examine repression cases against stevedores in pampean towns of Vértiz, in 1919; and Alpachiri, in 1921. We sustain that Liga Patriótica, to instrument its repression actions, appealed to territorial police and judiciary, which applied the Defensa Social law in several opportunities as part of the anti-maximalism repressive policy. To perform the analysis, we have come to various sources (legislatives, journalistic, workers press, police and judiciary documents), and we analyzed the ideologemes used to justify repression, as well as the police and judiciary mechanisms used to make it effective.
