摘要：In this paper we seek to analyze the present existing relation between artistic culture and cultural policies in some Argentinean Literature´s phenomenon. We ask about the theoretical ways in which the State has tried to regulate the artistic practice and, simultaneously, about the types of reaction from its addressee. As we consider that an abstract approach would be unable to access to the complexities of the different possible experiences, we have made an approach to the historical precedents of the relationship between the artistic practices and the design and implementation of public policies in two periods: the conformation of the State at the end of 19th century (I) and in the time of the avant-gardes from the sixties and seventies (II). This trail will allow us to reconstruct a theoretical approach to the underlying conflicts of the idea of justice in the State – literary practices debate (III). At the end of the paper we refer to some consequences from these historical experiences for the study of the current challenges of a democratic government of the artistic culture (IV).
