“…The United States entry into the war stimulated the abandonment of neutrality by most Latin American countries, fostered by a campaign of diplomatic and economic pressures under the banner of Pan-Americanism. 20 In addition, unrestricted submarine warfare declared by Germany led to the sinking of three Argentine ships -a number incomparably less than that of the sunk Spanish ships. This diplomatic occurrence was exploited by the United States, which published confidential telegrams sent by the Minister of Germany in Argentina -the Count of Luxburg -intercepted and deciphered by the British intelligence service.…”

“…22 However, the vertiginous pace of the war frustrated the initiative, since in 1917 the countries of the subcontinent broke off relations with Germany or even declared war on it; only Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Venezuela, Colombia and Paraguay remained neutral until the end of the war. 23 As a result, the Congress was postponed and never took place. 24 In addition, the Pan-Americanist campaign displayed by the United States led Yrigoyen to promote an approach to Spain, thus encouraging Pan-Hispanism.…”

In this article, we propose an initial comparative approach to the cultural and political impact of the First World War on Spain and Argentina, considering the common denominators and the singularities of both social experiences of the conflict. The relevance of the proposed comparison lies in several factors. In the first place, deep historical, cultural and demographic ties bound both nations. In second place, during the First World War, Spain and Argentina adopted a neutralist foreign policy, unaltered despite several diplomatic incidents with the warring nations, and of internal and external pressures. In both cases, civil society displayed a high level of political and cultural polarisation, and undertook an active mobilisation. Finally, there was a remarkable circulation of ideas and intellectuals through both margins of the Atlantic Ocean, which nourished the public controversies on the Great War. Nevertheless, beyond these similarities and confluences, there were also significant differences between Argentina and Spain, which exerted an influence on the countries position towards the conflict. The national cases analysed in this article demonstrate that diplomatic neutrality did not imply necessarily the indifference or passivity of civil society. Rediscovering neutrality within the war dynamics is one of the most stimulating paths for research.

This article presents the role of Georges Dumas in the development of Brazilian psychology in the first half of the twentieth century. France had at that moment a major influence on Brazilian cultural and scientific development, including the field of psychology. Georges Dumas had a prominent presence in Brazil, acting as a gatekeeper when choosing French scholars to give conferences and classes in Brazil between 1908 and 1940 as a representative of the French cultural tradition. The bibliography of Georges Dumas’s Traité de Psychologie, published in 1922-1923, shows a selection of Brazilian scholars who interacted with the author 1900’s ans 1940’s. The political context of French-Brazilian exchanges and the names of professors involved in the French mission in Brazil in the field of psychology were studied. The French cultural influence in Brazil is interpreted as a strategy aimed at contributing to the solution of Brazilian problems, and it helped to change the image of Brazil in Europe. In addition, scientific exchanges promoted the extension of the French diplomatic network.
