After the fall of the Peronist government in 1955, the Argentine political scenario and the identities of its main protagonists underwent several political, ideological and social changes. In this context, Argentine Nationalism was forced to redefine its own identity and its new role in the new scenario, in order to survive. Thus, the most representative periodicals (AyB and the Tacuara magazines) demonstrate how these reconfigurations were made with the help of a particular masculine stereotype and its countertype; i.e., the ideal activist and its opposite, the subhuman that represented the political adversary.
