Resumen

CASTRO-GOMEZ, Santiago. Latinos and Saxons. National identity and journalism in the 1920s. Nómadas [online]. 2009, n.30, pp.66-73. ISSN 0121-7550.

Some journalistic papers produced in the last century's 20s in Bogotá are the subject of a discursive analysis in this article. The author states that in the 20th century the production of national identity goes from the learned people to the journalists and that it is evidenced in urban chronicles and reports. The early 20th century's press might have expressed the thesis from which the contemporary world could be understood as a struggle between the Latin race and the Saxon one where Colombia would have had the civilizing role of stopping the imperial American "saxonism", strengthening its Latin nature as national identity.

Palabras clave : journalism; national identity; latinism, saxonism; Bogotá; 20th century.
