Abstract

«Il Messaggero Sardo» is a newspaper for Sardinian migrants funded by the Region of Sardinia in 1969. The newspaper is still active nowadays, despite some challenges through the years. Since its start, «Il Messaggero Sardo» has been aiming to be the publication of all Sardinian migrants living abroad, providing them with independent information. Since the mid - 1960s, the Region of Sardinia has been engaging in a dialogue with its migrants. However, the Sardinian communities living in non-European countries were left out of this dialogue for over 20 years. Nevertheless, these “forgotten” Sardinian communities acknowledged «Il Messaggero Sardo» as the only way of maintaining a link with their motherland. This paper shows the main events that led to the consolidation of the relations between the Region of Sardinia and the Sardinian migrants living in Argentina and the important role played by«Il Messaggero Sardo». The newspaper has proven to be an essential source regarding the study of Sardinian emigration and this is the reason why it should become the subject of specific studies. This way, the newspaper will be given its rightful place in the reconstruction of the Sardinian social and editorial history
