A particular group had great relevance in the process of theoretical renewal of the left the socalled Socialist Culture Club. The Club was founded by those who had edited Controversia in Mexico Aric De pola and Portantiero among others and who had managed to publish a small magazine in internal exile in Buenos Aires called Punto de Vista . Altamirano Beatriz Sarlo and Ricardo Piglia would become one of the fundamental publications of the transition. Later Aric who was the main figure of the Club would also found the magazine La Ciudad Futura a kind of continuation of Controversia in Argentina.
From these magazines and from the Club intellectuals began to rethink the identity of the left through an unprecedented revaluation of democracy and political liberalism. If in the years before the Russia Mobile Number List the motto of the left had been liberation versus dependence now the main dichotomy was expressed in the binomial democracy versus authoritarianism. Democracy began to be thought of by this group no longer as bourgeois as was common in Marxism but as a set of rules that guaranteed freedom and pluralism and thereby prevented authoritarianism. It was a liberal reformulation. Portantiero a leading figure in this group and who would later be part of the Esmeralda Group that advised Alfonsn published a fundamental text on the reevaluation of the left in Punto de Vista.
Titled the essay maintained that socialism could not do without the cultural and political accumulation that certain acquisitions of liberalism imply and invited to combine both notions democracy and socialism in a new political thought. For Portantiero as for his colleagues democracy was now the minimum floor for any discussion about social equality because it guaranteed a series of freedoms that were essential freedom of the press individual guarantees and plurality of opinions. This social democratic turn exhibited by leftwing intellectuals could not but be in tune with the Alfonsinist discourse. That is why Alfonsns transition and leadership generated so much enthusiasm in his ranks. Portantiero for example said that he had been moved to tears at an Alfonsn campaign event in which the UCR leader recited as he regularly did the preamble of the Constitution.fifteen. Punto de Vista on the other hand explicitly supported Alfonsn in against the Peronist candidate associated with the right of the movement. For Beatriz Sarlo director of the magazine in those years Argentina returned but in better shape to have a future.
