BETANCOURT MENDIETA, Alexander. Revista de las Indias (1938-1950): Cultural Dissemination and the Literate World. Anu.hist.reg.front. [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.2, pp.125-147. ISSN 0122-2066. https://doi.org/10.18273/revanua.v21n2-2016005.
In July 1936, the first issue of the Journal of the Indies was published. From 1938, the editorial policy of the Magazine opted for a view beyond national borders which thematically tried to cover the continent. This shift in focus was installed amid a complex situation: the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), World War II (1939-1945) and the change of government from Alfonso Lopez Pumarejo to Eduardo Santos (1938-1942). The context led the magazine to emphasize new issues to disseminate and understand Colombian literate work and the one produced in Spanish, which allowed drawing attention to the situation of this type of work in times of crisis. That is why, between September 1944 and April 1945, the magazine produced and published the answers to four questions made by literate Colombians and foreigners on the consequences of war for the literate world in America. This paper proposes a description of this editorial project and how the evolution of intellectual work was perceived in a time of international crisis.
