Abstract

DURANTE, María Eugenia. Why do they move so much? Student movement of architecture in Buenos Aires (1955-1974). Estoa [online]. 2021, vol.10, n.20, pp.268-287. ISSN 1390-9274.  https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v010.n020.a14.

The architecture student movement in Argentina has drawn the attention of several historians from universities for their magnitude, the depth of his criticism and construction of alternative spaces. For the 1960s and 1970s, there is talk of political radicalization of the student actor because it deepens the link between academic practices and political militancy. To return to these processes, this article aims to investigate the historical configuration of the student actor in the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of Buenos Aires, to understand how their spaces, discourses, practices and strategies were developed. As the main source, architecture magazines of the time are used, which allow us to visualize the impact of this actor on institutions and public discourse, as well as his dialogues with other actors from the university community and the professional field.

Keywords : architecture and politics; architecture school; student movement; Buenos Aires University; architecture magazines.
