| Sumario: | The aim of this article is to explore the construction of the first connections between German exiles residing in Buenos Aires and their European counterparts. This is relevant considering that antifascism in Argentina initially emerged more strongly within migrant communities and, in dialogue with local actors, spread throughout society following the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. From the beginning, the members of the Argentinisches Tageblatt saw themselves as part of a “global struggle” against Hitler, although the degree of their closeness to communist or social democratic antifascism remains unclear. In my argument, I will use the articles this newspaper reproduced from other publications: my hypothesis is that a quantitative analysis of these texts will help reconstruct the frameworks of reference of these exiles and how they positioned themselves within the “global combat against fascism”. |
