Facundo, or Civilization and Barbarism, is a sociological and political essay written by Domingo Faustino Sarmiento in 1845. In this work, Sarmiento analyzes the 19th-century Argentine society, contrasting the European civilization with the barbarism of the rural areas and the caudillismo. Through the figure of Facundo Quiroga, an Argentine caudillo, Sarmiento explores the tensions between progress and tradition, and reflects on the national identity and the future of the country.
Domingo Faustino Sarmiento was President of Argentina from 1868 to 1874. He was a member of a group of intellectuals, known as the Generation of 1837, who had a great influence on 19th-century Argentina.
