CALIFA, Juan Sebastián. Political socialization among students in 1960s Argentina: University of Buenos Aires. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.146, pp.98-113. ISSN 0185-2698.

Recently, in Argentina, the decades of 1960s and 1970s were established as a field of investigation regarding the student movement. This period has resulted especially attractive, given that throughout those years there was a virulent university radicalization which, linked to other leftist protest movements, produced large-scale political events. Unlike other recent works, which have been devoted to focusing on -or highlighting- one specific conflict in which the student militancy participated, or to describing the history of certain groups, the peculiarity of this text lies in its attention to the general political socialization that took place at that time. More specifically, this article is dedicated to the developments in the University of Buenos Aires, the largest educational institution throughout the country. In particular, thepaper concentrates on the continuities and changes that the political radicalization process registered in the student centers of this great port during the aforementioned decades.

Keywords : Student movement; Student centers; Reformism; Radicalization; Politicization.
