Una heurística para el estudio de la historia de las reformas y conflictos en la universidad latinoamericana

Abstract

From the Manifiesto de Córdoba (1918) the history of the higher education in Latin America and in Colombia has been constructed in a double tension: on one hand, the origin and modernization of university projects impelled by the national states. On the other, demands of reform of the university movements. While the educative modernizations in the national states have been promoted as policies up downwards; on the other side, the university actors (students, professors) have denounced such policies as foreign to the demands and requirements of institutions founded on two principles: its excellence in its three basic tasks (research, education and extension) ad its relation to society. Said tension is part of the political and socioeconomic problems of the continent and the country, reason why it requires new theoretical and methodological proposals in historical approaches.
