Comunicación y proceso revolucionario en El Salvador. La prensa clandestina en la configuración y desarrollo de las organizaciones insurgentes (1970-1980).

Resumo

Since the early 1970's various political-military organizations such as the Popular Liberation Forces (FPL) and the People's Revolutionary Army (ERP) would be forming in El Salvador, the result of differences within the Communist Party (PCS) and the radicalization of large segments of Salvadoran youth. This paper addresses the role developed in this process by the underground press as a tool for organizational consolidation and homogenization of the militancy of these emerging organizations. Publications that would mark not only action guidelines but would set up a new militant universe that will focus on armed struggle, with its own symbols and codes. This would allow the insurgent organizations to seek, first, differentiate and later become an alternative political project in opposition to the legal or electoral left.
