Resumen
AMOREBIETA Y VERA, María Laura. Historical memory and Citizens’ Revolution in the Ecuadorian Bicentennial. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2017, vol.79, n.4, pp.875-903. ISSN 2594-0651.
This paper analyzes the reconstruction of historical memory during Ecuador’s independence bicentennial. It examines the speeches delivered by president Rafael Correa Delgado between 2009 -the bicentennial of the First Government Assembly in Quito- and 2012 -the bicentennial of the Revolutionary Congress-, based on the hypothesis that the official uses of the past indicate a marriage between a liberal and a socialist political matrix which is simultaneously cut through by the Catholic Church’s social doctrine. This representation of the nation’s past and present -defined by the search for the golden mean- appears to constitute a key mechanism in portraying the State as guarantor and organizer of Ecuadorian society.
