dc.description Los libros de texto contienen representaciones sociales acerca de ideologías y valoraciones de los grupos humanos que interactúan en las sociedades. En este sentido, nos proponemos (a) revelar las representaciones sociales acerca de los blancos (peninsulares, criollos o mantuanos y de orilla) presentes en los manuales y libros de texto (sección historia) de primaria del subsistema de Educación Básica; y (b) analizar la manifestación de las ideologías acerca de este grupo de la sociedad colonial venezolana, transmitidas a través de estos materiales educativos. Para ello, nos sustentamos en la teoría de las representaciones sociales (Moscovici, 1979) y en el Análisis Crítico del Discurso (Van Dijk, 1999, 2003a y b). Metodologicamente esta investigación suscribe un estudio documental que examina un corpus de cinco (5) libros de textos de primaria (publicados desde 1995 hasta 2007). Para su análisis, se tomaron notas y se elaboraron diagramas para obtener una descripción detallada de cada uno de los grupos estudiados. .Las conclusiones apuntan la presencia de ideologías y valoraciones racistas en los libros analizados, donde, por un lado, se enfatizan aspectos positivos y se minimizan los negativos de los blancos peninsulares; y, por el otro, se hacen prominentes los negativos de canarios y criollos, al tiempo que se invisibilizan sus atributos positivos.<br>Textbooks contain social representations about the world and man as well as ideologies and evaluations on the human groups that interact in the society from the past or present. In this regard, we propose the following objectives: (a) to reveal the social representations about whites (peninsular or creole aristocrats and shore) present in the elementary manuals and textbooks (history section) from the subsystem of Basic Education; and (b) to analyze the underlying or explicit manifestation of ideologies about this group of Venezuelan colonial society, transmitted through these educational materials. To do this, we base our study on the theory of social representations (Moscovici, 1979) and Critical Discourse Analysis (Van Dijk, 1999, 2003a and b). From the methodological point of view, this research is documentary; it considers the examination of a corpus of five (5) elementary textbooks from Basic Education subsystem, specifically from first to fourth grade (published from 1995 to 2007). It is a study in line with the qualitative paradigm, so the above documents were reviewed, notes were taken and diagrams were drawn to then get a detailed description of each of the groups in the Venezuelan colonial society. The findings of this research point to the presence of racist evaluations and ideologies in the textbooks, because on one hand, the positive aspects are emphasized and the negative ones are minimized of white Spaniards; and, on the other, the Creole and Canary negative features become prominent, while their positive attributes are obscured.
