الوصف:This paper discusses the results of the analysis of the concept of communism and the related semantic network – capitalism and socialism – during the period between 1950-1959, which emerges from a larger investigation entitled Political Concepts in Costa Rica during the period of 1950-1959: transformations and remainings, developed in the Centro de Investigaciones Históricas de América Central (CIHAC) of the Universidad de Costa Rica. The period was selected because the decade of 1950 is the following after the Civil War of 1948, where the conditions of the contemporary political community was settled. The article exposes the content associated with these concepts and its political use by political and social actors in political publicity in two newspapers with national circulation - La Nación y La República -. It is concluded that for the period, the concept of capitalism is used ambiguously, although its role as a frontier against the concepts of socialism and communism is clear. The latter are represented as sinister, terrifying; not only threatens democracy but also to Costa Rican being. In that sense, communism functions as the constitutive outside of national identity.
