FRIEDEMANN, Sergio. From the Cátedras Nacionales (1967-1971) to the Universidad Nacional y Popular de Buenos Aires (1973-1974): Formative experiences of university´s institutionality. Sociohistórica [online]. 2017, n.39, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-1606.

The article is the result of a research focused on the history of the University of Buenos Aires, particularly on the uncompleted project of university reform that was fostered from May 1973. I analyze the case of the Cátedras Nacionales (1967-1971) as one of the experiences that precede the university project partially institutionalized since 1973. Among those cases that we have called formative experiences, the Cátedras Nacionales are a paradigmatic one, and perhaps the most explored. However, not always they have been recognized as the basis of the institutional transformation project that was fostered a few years later. Through a variety of primary sources, this paper argues that the Cátedras Nacionales and the University Reform Project are two separate moments which should be differentiated, but at the same time it is crucial to analyze the historical continuity of their postulates and the trajectories of the actors which participated on those events in order to understand the ways in which the reform project was institutionalized
