Abstract:

This article reconstructs and analyzes the confor­mation of the Eurasian thought in Argentina mate­rialized through the publishing practice carried out by a group of anti-Bolshevik Russian immigrants. The magazine they edited between 1941 and 1943, Tierra Rusa, experienced an approach to the Soviet regime as a result of the Nazi invasion to the Soviet Union. For this, the editors tried not to fall into historical, philosophical and political contradic­tions by promoting from its pages the coexistence between idealism and pragmatism of the Russian communism. In this intellectual operation, they put in the foreground their own “pro-Asian” and “anti-European” characteristics contained in the overall development of Stalin’s policy.
