Resumo: This article examines two academic trips made by US experts to Argentina during World War II. Ralph Steele Boggs, a folklorologist at the University of North Carolina who arrived in Buenos Aires in 1940; and Edward Larocque Tinker, a doctor of literature recognized for his Sunday columns in the New York Times, who arrived in 1945. Both were agents of the “Pan American unit”, established contacts with local institutions and carried out different activities. Through internal documents and publications by the Boggs host institution in Argentina and the private archive of Edward Larocque Tinker, I discuss how the academic articulate the Pan American speeches with the national identity representations that are in full expansion for this period and the effects on the American society.

Ralph Steele Boggs, un folklorólogo de la Universidad de Carolina del Norte que llegó a Buenos Aires en 1940; y Edward Larocque Tinker, doctor en Literatura reconocido por sus columnas dominicales en el New York Times, que arribó al país en 1945. Ambos eran promotores de la “unidad panamericana”, se abocaron a establecer contactos con instituciones locales y generaron diferentes actividades. A partir de los documentos internos y de las publicaciones de la institución anfitriona de Boggs en Argentina y del archivo privado de Edward Larocque Tinker, nos interesa indagar cómo articularon los discursos panamericanos con las representaciones identitarias nacionales que se encontraban en plena expansión para ese período y cuáles fueron los efectos de su visita sobre la sociedad norteamericana.Este artigo analisa duas viagens acadêmicas feitas por especialistas estadunidenses à Argentina durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. Ralph Steele Boggs, folclorologista da Universidade da Carolina do Norte que chegou a Buenos Aires em 1940; e Edward Larocque Tinker, doutor em literatura reconhecido por suas colunas de domingo no New York Times, que chegou ao país em 1945. Ambos foram precursores da “unidade pan-americana”, estabeleceram contatos com instituições locais e exerceram diferentes atividades.
