Desde aquí, las autoridades problematizaban acerca del mejor modelo educativo para el desarrollo de la República y la consecución del progreso. En este contexto, se produjo en Valparaíso, un enfrentamiento entre dos modelos de modernidad, que por ese entonces disputaban su legitimidad en la naciente esfera pública. Por una parte, la Masonería impulsó un desafiante proyecto educativo laico al fundar la escuela “Blas Cuevas”. La iglesia y sus defensores por su parte, en defensa de un proyecto más tradicionalista, se opusieron fervientemente a la iniciativa calificándola de “atea” e iniciando una ofensiva comunicacional en su contra. Nuestro trabajo busca analizar el debate entre ambos actores, dando cuenta de sus argumentos, estrategias y legitimación como actor dentro de la esfera pública.Editorial de la Sede del Pacífico de la Universidad de Costa Rica2018-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleArtículoartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rehmlac/article/view/3283910.15517/rehmlac.v10i1.32839REHMLAC +, Journal of Historical Studies of Latin American and Caribbean Freemasonry plus; Vol. 10 No. 1 (2018): Vol. 10, no. 1, mayo-noviembre 2018; 72-88REHMLAC+, Revista de Estudios Históricos de la Masonería Latinoamericana y Caribeña plus; Vol. 10 Núm. 1 (2018): Vol. 10, no. 1, mayo-noviembre 2018; 72-882215-60971659-422310.15517/rehmlac.v10i1reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rehmlac/article/view/32839/33057Derechos de autor 2009 REHMLAC+acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-08-31T17:29:19Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/32839Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:45:38.741Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse |
