Abstract
GHIRETTI, Héctor. The aim and the means: anti-imperialist Theory and Praxis in Vivian Trías. Humanidades (Montevideo. En línea) [online]. 2020, n.7, pp.113-145. Epub June 01, 2020. ISSN 1510-5024. https://doi.org/10.25185/7.5.
In 2017 a team of journalists making research on the activities of Eastern European Intelligence Services in Latin America revealed that Vivian Trías - a renowned intelectual and leader of the Uruguayan Socialist Party had collaborated as an informant of the Tchecoslovakian Agency (Státní bezpečnost). This unexpected revelation showed in a particularly dramatic way the Trias’ alternatives of political struggle against imperialism, and became a controversy within the diverse forms of leftist identities in the present days.
Keywords : Uruguay - Socialism - Imperialism - Eastern Bloc - Cold War - Vivian Trías.
