REBOLLEDO FICA, Eunice Noemí. El protestantismo liberal y las controversias en torno al laicismo a principios del siglo XIX en La Reforma: revista de religión, educación, historia y ciencias sociales dirigida por William Case Morris. Hist. educ. anu. [online]. 2014, vol.15, n.1, pp.118-138. ISSN 2313-9277.
After the "onslaught of secularism," which ad two high points (1882-1884, when the acts of common education and Civil Registry were discussed and then, passed; and 1888, with the debate of civil marriage) we observe the weakening of the secularist policies developed by liberal sectors. In this line of analysis, we not only attempt to problematize a model of secularism based on the assumption that the State and the Roman Catholic Church were the only actors of the political plot, but also demonstrate how liberal protestants, from their spaces of ideological dissemination, stood for the secularity of the state and education, agreeing with Domingo Faustino Sarmiento's beliefs -who became one of the privileged, foremost politician that legitimated the social reform they promoted. In this sense, they struggled for maintaining the secularist laws and impulsed the separation of the Church and the state, which was the pre-condition for the institution of the secularist school. However, as we will go in detail, there were different ways of conceiving this separation within the liberal Protestantism, as the secular experiences from European countries extrapolated the American model that, despite the fact that they presented different ways of relationship between the state and the dominant religion, they did not abandon the Christian principles as the support of public ethics, the connecting point with Sarmiento's beliefs.
