Abstract
BLOIS, Juan Pedro. Sociología y regímenes autoritarios. La Carrera de Sociología de la UBA y los circuitos académicos alternativos durante los “años de plomo”. Sociohistórica [online]. 2019, n.43, pp.71-71. ISSN 1852-1606. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18521606e071.
This article seeks to analyze the development of Argentine sociology during the period started in 1974 with the repressive intervention of the universities, and then continued by the last military dictatorship. Based on a socio-historical perspective, the article focuses on the University of Buenos Aires' Bachelor’s Degree Program and the main alternative institutions: the private research centers and the private universities. The analysis, based on different documents and interviews, tries to account for the effects of the repressive context in the practice of sociology and its institutions. It will be shown that the increasing difficulties in reaching broader publics or clienteles fostered the development of a more "self-referential" sociology, whose social relevance or utility were not always clear to their practitioners.
