This work proposes a panoramic study of the presence of Walter Benjamin in the Argentine intellectual field. First, we explain some elements of a political theory of reception set forth in Benjamin’s own work. Then, the text is organized based on a double criterion, both historical and problematic. The different sections show a clear and insistent presence of Benjamin, as well as a limited academic production on his work. We close the work with a general balance, suggesting the pending tasks of the reception, in the light of the current theoretical-political discussions in Argentina and the region.
