Resumen
Este artículo se ocupa de los cambios operados en la concepción de la nación sostenida por dos destacados periódicos liberales porteños (La Mañana y La Fronda) en el curso de la primera experiencia democrática argentina, desde su instauración hasta su clausura. Dichos cambios constituyeron el correlato de la transformación de las posturas de ambos diarios frente al sistema político ante los avatares de la política de masas. La trayectoria de sus opiniones acerca de la sociedad nacional y del lugar que en ella le cabía a la inmigración constituye un caso particular en el devenir del nacionalismo argentino; también ilustra las transformaciones del perfil de una nación sacudida por la masificación de la sociedad y de la política durante el período de entreguerras.

Abstract
This paper deals with the changes of the conception of nation sustained by two outstanding
liberal newspapers from Buenos Aires city (La Mañana and La Fronda) during
the first Argentinean democratic experience, since its founding until its conclusion. Those changes were the correlation of both newspapers’ transformed attitudes about the political system, faced with the vicissitudes of mass politics. The path of their opinions about national society and the place of immigration in it, represents a particular case of Argentinean nationalism’s history; it also illustrates the transformations of the profile of a nation shaken by the masification of its society and politics during the interwar period.
