BURGOS, Ramón. "Viva Jujuy": Gimnasia y Esgrima y la construcción de lo jujeño en la prensa gráfica. Cuad. Sur, Hist. [online]. 2007, n.35-36, pp. 321-344. ISSN 2362-2997.
In recent years, Social Sciences began to approach to sport problematic, mainly soccer -in a deeply way-. In our country, this sport has been historically a field where speeches interlace the sport subject with other institutional and political instances of social life. In this way, soccer has been thought from the perspective of the own protagonists as well from mass media - graphical press particularly-, like a privileged field about Nation discussions and identities construction. In Jujuy, Gimnasia y Esgrima campaigns have been a remarkable area for -unequal- relations discussion between the political Nation Centre and a peripheral province. Trying to track a possible origin of that identities construction, we analyze the journalistic cover made by "Pregón" -Jujuy's local newspaper - about Gimnasia y Esgrima campaign in 1975 National Tournament, focusing on the possible relationships with the local political class. By other way, considering the historical differences between contexts, we'll analyze the two promotion to the First Division tournament (seasons 1993/1994, 2004/2005), trying to mark a counterpoint in the constructions that make Gimnasia an Identity referring.
