BAILON GODAY, Martina. 1975: año de la orientalidad: el cuerpo /moral en el proceso de reorganización nacional. ETD [online]. 2007, vol.08, suppl., pp.290-313. ISSN 1676-2592.

This paper is situated in the historical context of the so-called National Reorganisation Process developed during the last civic-military dictatorship in Uruguay (1973-1985). Together with the ritualisation and celebration of the “Year of Orientality” in 1975, the patriotic ethics is defined. Serving a central role, the highly militarized Physical Education sets the example in the construction of morality in terms of the body. Discourse fragments are analysed from a Foucouldian point of view and connections are drawn between both repressive and productive dimensions of power, established upon the body schema in those times.

Palabras clave : Body; Morality; Physical Education; Dictatorship; Power.
