Description
Summary:The paper presents the way the independence of the Latin American countries, their relations with Spain and their future perspectives were represented in the first volumes of Cuadernos Hispanoamericanos, a cultural magazine of propagandistic aims established by the Francoist government in 1948. In the aftermath of the Second World War, the Francoist regime, forced into a relatively extended international isolation by the resolutions of the UN, had to tone down its international propaganda and seek allies for its cause, resulting in a rapprochement towards Latin American countries. Cuadernos Hispanoamericanos was a more sophisticated means of this propaganda, although it also had the important merit of encouraging a real dialogue between Latin American and Spanish intellectuals and artists. The authors of the magazine retained the principal characteristics of the official ideology of Hispanidad, but also argued for a more balanced relationship between Latin America and Spain, and saw Latin America as an emerging power within the international sphere.
