Descripción
Sumario:This article analyzes the development of Chilean historiography during the military dictatorship through the production generated by the academic journal Historia from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Considering the closeness between this institution and the regime, it is suggested that in the published numbers of the journal two historiographical tendencies coexisted. In the first place, and predominantly, a historiography closed to the official narrative of the dictatorship and that employed typical elements of nineteenth-century historicism. Second, a kind of historiographical resistance that progressively included new perspectives and methodologies of the discipline that were booming at a global level.
