CUCCHI, Laura. Opinión pública, legitimidad y partidos: Miradas sobre el adversario político en Córdoba a finales de los años setenta del siglo XIX. Bol. Inst. Hist. Argent. Am. Dr. Emilio Ravignani [online]. 2013, n.38, pp.75-103. ISSN 1850-2563.

This paper seeks to explore different views on the role of political adversaries and on the legitimacy of the opposition in the late 1870 Córdoba. To that end, this issue will be examined from three perspectives: the political parties´ definition of Public Opinion and its place in judging political action; the ideas they defended about acceptable ways of expressing and processing their disputes and, lastly, their divergent views on the matter of representation and the role of political parties in a republican system.
