La recepción de los golpes de Estado de Chile y Argentina en Venezuela: prensa, actores políticos y gobiernos (1973/1976)

Abstract

The article reconstructs and analyzes the positions of the national press, political parties, unions and Venezuelan governments in the face of the coup d'état of Chile (September 1973) and Argentina (March 1976) in the weeks before and after the coups. The analysis of these conjunctures in the Venezuelan public and political sphere of the 1970s constitutes a relevant research problem to know the perceptions and social representations of different state and non-state actors of the time, as well as their responses in the form of public positions and activation of specific solidarities and policies in relation to each case.
