Abstract

This article attempts to link three urban spaces and practices of bodily and morals discipline focused on the youth and the children in the city of Rosario, during the first half of the twentieth century. We analyze the practice of shooting, the formation of the polygons, the purposes of their leaders to forming school battalions and the delaying the installation of summer camps for weak children. In a second plane, we study the relative decline of the school battalions and calisthenics at the hands of the massive and standardized sports. Finally, we show how these sportive forms were gradually integrated to the nationalist ideology at the end of the 1940s.
