VALENCIA FLORES, Abraham O.. In Pursuit of Organizing Technical Education in Mexico. The Construction of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2021, n.61, pp.283-315. Epub 31-Ene-2022. ISSN 0185-2620. https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24485004e.2021.61.72825.
This article aims to reconstruct the process of organizing technical education in Mexico from 1915 until the creation of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) in 1936. This period was fruitful in reflections, debates and policies about channeling and guiding technical education, according to the post-revolutionary discourse about the rural and industrial transformation of the country. Such a commitment was characterized by productive dialogue between public functionaries, teachers, workers and peasants. This period culminated with the creation of the IPN, which condensed the ideas of technical education of that time by ordering a large number of technical schools of the pre-vocational, vocational and higher levels in a single system.
