Abstract
El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar ciertos tópicos que recorren la llamada
“Nueva” Historia Cultural de la Corrupción Política como aquellos que pivotean en torno a los términos
vinculados al concepto de corrupción, las percepciones que los protagonistas esgrimen respecto a los
hechos escandalosos, la derivación de las denuncias en investigaciones gubernamentales y
presentaciones judiciales y la actuación de la prensa en el proceso investigativo. Para ello, nos
centraremos en la pesquisa emprendida por el comisionado gubernamental Ricardo Pillado en el
Banco Provincial de Santa Fe (Argentina) referida a las anomalías registradas en la entidad durante
los años anteriores a la crisis de 1890. El caso resulta significativo porque, por primera vez, las
denuncias de corrupción sobre lo sucedido en la institución bancaria no provenían de la esfera
periodística, sino que eran originadas desde el ámbito estatal.
This article aims to analyze certain topics that run through the so-called “New” Cultural History of Political Corruption, such as those that revolve around the terms related to the concept of corruption, the perceptions that the protagonists hold regard to the scandalous events the derivation of denunciation in government investigations and judicial presentations and the role played by the press in the investigative process. To this end, we will focus on the research undertaken by the government commissioner, Ricardo Pillado, in the Provincial Bank of Santa Fe (Argentina) referring to the anomalies registered in the entity during the years preceding the crisis of 1890. The case is significant because, for the first time, the denunciation of corruption in the banking institution did not come from the journalistic sphere but originated from the state level.
