| description | This article examines the so-called return of the state in the three Bolivarian Revolutions (Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador) analyzing the discourses of Hugo Chavez, Evo Morales and Rafael Correa. The idea of a return of the state suggests clearly that if the state was seen as the problem in the 1980s and 1990s, in the processes of the new left in Latin America it has been presented as the solution. However, beyond certain general issues, there have been few analyses that explain how the state has returned in the Bolivarian Revolutions y how this return has redefined the political context and analyze the implications of this return. This article demonstrates how the state has returned in the three cases in relation to two other powerful phenomena: the promise of re-founding the nation and patriotism. It is concluded that the convergence of these three elements –re-foundationalism, the nation and the state– configured a powerful collective identity containing moral and emotional elements which link the leaderships of the three with a reconstituted political community. |

El artículo aborda el llamado retorno del estado en las revoluciones bolivarianas (Venezuela, Bolivia y Ecuador) a partir de un análisis del discurso de Hugo Chávez, Evo Morales y Rafael Correa. La idea del retorno sugiere claramente que si el estado se convirtió en las décadas de los ochenta y noventa en un problema, en los procesos abiertos a partir del giro a la izquierda en América Latina emerge como solución. No obstante, más allá de ciertas generalidades, son pocos los análisis que explican cómo retorna el estado en las revoluciones bolivarianas, de qué modo este retorno redefine el campo de la política y qué evalúan algunas de sus implicaciones. El artículo muestra que el estado retorna en los tres casos ligado a otros dos significantes poderosos: la promesa refundacional y el amor a la patria. Se concluye que la convergencia de las tres categorías –refundación, patria y estado– configura una poderosa identidad colectiva teñida de elementos morales y emocionales que liga a los liderazgos en los tres países con una comunidad política reconstituida. O artigo aborda o chamado retorno do estado nas revoluções bolivarianas (Venezuela, Bolívia e Equador) a partir da análise do discurso de Hugo Chávez, Evo Morales e Rafael Correa. A ideia do retorno sugere claramente que se o estado era um problema nas décadas de oitenta e noventa, emerge como solução nos processos abertos a partir do giro à esquerda em América Latina. Não obstante, além de certas generalidades, são poucas as análises que explicam como retorna o estado nas revoluções bolivarianas, de que modo este retorno redefine o campo da política e o que avaliam algumas das suas implicações. O artigo mostra que o estado regressa nos três casos ligados a outros dois significantes poderosos: a promessa refundacional e o amor à pátria. Conclui-se que a convergência das três categorias –refundação, pátria e estado– configura uma poderosa identidade coletiva marcada de elementos morais e emocionais que liga as lideranças nos três países com uma comunidade política reconstruída.
