 Trama geográfica en las utopías de Sarmiento
Domingo F. Sarmiento, born in Argentina in the XIX Century, was a writer, politician and educator who left a deep trace in the american ideals.
Sarmiento, enrolado en una militancia unitaria, contraria a estas concepciones, hizo del progreso un camino para romper las barreras geográficas que, de la mano de la ignorancia, impedían la necesaria difusión de las innovaciones a partir de una política basada en la conexión como instrumento de apertura contra el aislamiento del interior del país.
Sarmiento actuó con astucia frente a esta difícil elección: por un lado construyó impactantes utopías, y, simultáneamente, se alió con las ciencias, empleándolas como fuente concreta de información y desarrollo técnico.

Sarmiento also has a sort of habit to go off on tangents on things that are totally irrelevant to the subject matter at hand.
Domingo F. Sarmiento is of European descent and has a biased for "civilization" and defies everything that is "barbaric" as he puts it, which really is what the story is about, and his protest to Rosas one of the leaders of Argentina at the time this story was written who is also "barbaric".
Facundo is a gaucho and is interpreted by Sarmiento as a dicator who made is way to the top by hate and carelessness and is partially at fault for the state of "deterioration" that Argentina was presently in during mid-19th century Argentina.

At the moment of departing for Europe, Algiers and North America, the 34 years old Sarmiento had already written his famous "Facundo", had suffered twice the exile due to poiitical reasons, and possesed a cultural background unique in the southern republics just recently released from the hispanic colonial regime.
His chilean friend Manuel Montt -then minister and later on President of Chile- had asked Sarmiento to review the education systems in the main countries and, in Sarmiento';s own words, "analyze the institutions that delay or advance their progress".
Sarmiento, throughout his 1847 trip, and later on as Argentine Ambassador to Washington, constitutes the first Argentine that had the chance of knowing, admiring and widespreading the huge advances of the United States.

For Sarmiento, barbarism was the native tribes and gaucho plains; and cities, the civilization.
The gaucho has been replaced by colonial farmers and blue collar workers, barbarism now is not just in the fields but also in the big city mobs, and the demagogue plays the role of the ancient caudillo, who also was a demagogue.
Today, 158 years after Facundo was written, and almost 30 years since the Borges reflections, Argentina still fights entangled between the forces that sustain intitutional power versus those who privilege the personal rule of the powerful.

The Argentine republic at that time was just 35 years old (since its emancipation, in 1810), of which the last 12 had been under the rule of Juan Manuel de Rosas, the Buenos Aires governor self appointed "Restorer of the law", title that barely concealed the autocratic essence of his government.
In his writing Facundo becomes the archetype of the mean, brave, cruel, uneducated, dominant, outstanding horseman, regarded with high esteem by and among the rural masses, but with little or null positive use to a civilized conception.
Defeated Quiroga, and later on assasinated in a place in Cordoba called Barranca Yaco, Rosas inherits the "caudillo" interior fiefdom exerting in fact real power over the 14 provinces that composed the Argentine Republic at that time until 1852 when he was defeated and toppled by General Justo J. de Urquiza in the Caseros battle.

 Pendulating "between euphoria and despair"
In his landmark 1845 essay, "Facundo, Civilización y Barbarie," Argentinean author and statesman Domingo F. Sarmiento, the nation's second president, sharply contrasted the forces at work on his young nation.
He advocated for civilization, represented by European modernity, and railed against barbarism, typified by the rural, uneducated masses and the populist leaders they embraced.
The tension has informed the history, culture, and literature of Argentina, from Sarmiento's far-reaching political and educational reforms to the regime of Juan Perón to the nation's current fiscal crisis.
