Abstract
Description
La cuestión indígena y los gauchos se encuentran íntimamente conectados en el pensamiento de Juan Álvarez (1878-1954), jurisconsulto e historiador argentino. Ambos representaban, para él, la antigua Argentina, antes de la llegada de los inmigrantes europeos. Álvarez, como autor liberal, desaprobaba el modo de vida tradicional de indios y gauchos, y apoyaba la presencia de los europeos, los cuales simbolizaban, para él, el progreso y la civilización.
