ARGUELLO, Santiago e CAVALLO, Yanela. Liberalism and Federalism. From Constant to Alberdi. Rev. hist. am. argent. [online]. 2020, vol.55, n.2, pp.127-156. ISSN 2314-1549.
One of the strongest paradoxes of the historico-ideological rise of Argentine State is the fact of having associated Liberalism with Unitarism, and Federalism with Traditionalism. As is seen through classical liberal authors such as Constant or Tocqueville, the paradox lies in that one of the main principles of any political community in agreement with freedom is federal decentralization. The aim of the present article is, in the first place, faced with that before-mentioned national paradox. Secondly, to define the meaning of the relationship between Liberalism and Federalism in the European authors above named. And in the third place, to give an account of Alberdis stance regarding that relationship, which in some ways has been made under the influence of that European Liberalism.
Palavras-chave : Liberalism; Federalism; Benjamin Constant; Alexis de Tocqueville; Juan Bautista Alberdi.
