During the 20th century folklore research followed two broad lines of interpretation. One of them considers folkloreas a national patrimony. The other line considers folklore as a form of expression of popular culture. This articledeals with the debate arising among the followers of these two lines. In the period comprised between the years 1973-1989 the "nationalist" outlook was imposed in Chile as part of the cultural policies of the military government. Itwas then that the "battle of folklore" was fought by those for whom this concept was linked with the study anddiffusion of folklore as the popular form of relationship between art and life. ; El presente escrito indaga en el debate producido entre dos grandes líneas interpretativas sobre elfolclore, definido ya sea como patrimonio nacional o comprendido como formas expresivas de lacultura popular. En el periodo 1973-1989 se produjo la imposición de la mirada "nacionalista", productode las políticas culturales del régimen militar y la "batalla del folclore" fue dada por quienes sehan acercado a este concepto a partir de la búsqueda y difusión del folclore como "arte-vida" popular.

In this article, the censorship against the Chilean working-class press in Chile between 1919 and 1925 will be analyzed in the context of the social question, the crisis of the oligarchy and the reconfiguration of the reppressive branch of the State. We consider as a hypothesis that governments favored the administrative-police censorship over judicial censorship, seeing the current legislation as insufficient in controling these media characterized as being "subversive". For this reason, in this time, it was built this way to create regulations that established controls and prohibitions unknown until then. To explain the censorship mechanics, we will focus on the procedures, agents and promoters of said censorship and the defense of freedom of expression carried out by the working-class press and we have used as sources the working-class and latest press, the parliamentary debate, the sentences, and the government files.
