RESUMEN
Analizamos la construcción de la noción de ‘mala vida’ en la ciudad de Buenos Aires, en la Revista de Criminología, Psiquiatría y Medicina Legal, entre 1914 y 1923. Nos dedicaremos a analizar la ‘mala vida’, entendiendo por tal aquellas conductas ubicadas en una zona fronteriza entre el crimen y la locura, a partir de la cuestión de la prevención y la peligrosidad. La primera forma de analizar la ‘mala vida’ se refiere a proyectos de instituciones ligados a la eugenesia para el encierro preventivo de peligrosos, ‘alcoholistas’ y vagabundos. La segunda, a la identificación, en términos morales y físicos, que puede ser vinculada a la confección de proyectos de intervención para los considerados ‘malvivientes’, que pudieran potencialmente dañar de algún modo al cuerpo social.
ABSTRACT
We analyze the construction of the notion of the ‘lowlife’ in the city of Buenos Aires in the Revista de Criminología, Psiquiatría y Medicina Legal, from 1914-1923. We shall analyze the notion of ‘lowlife’, meaning behaviors situated in a border zone between crime and madness, from the point of view of prevention and perception of danger. The first way of analyzing the ‘lowlife’ examines institutional projects that were related to eugenics and that advocated preventive detention of dangerous people, ‘alcoholists’ and vagrants. The second involves identifying in moral and physical terms the kind of people who were targeted in the creation of intervention projects for those considered to be ‘lowlifes’, who could potentially damage the fabric of society in some way.
