Resumen:
Based on a systematic archival analysis of the two major national newspapers, La Nación and Clarín, during four decades (1950-1990), this article presents the preliminary results of a long-term history of inflation. We focus on how inflation was experienced, framed, and fought in the second half of the twentieth century in Argentina. The paper is organized in two sections that reveal contrasting modes in the attempts to tame prices and disentangle the economy. Each section focuses on three main aspects: the way inflation was experienced and presented in the public sphere, the actors that participated in complaints and interpretations about it, and the political strategies followed to stabilize prices.
