Abstract

This article provides a reconstruction of the historiographical argentine student movement of the University Reform, which started in Cordoba in 1918 and influenced students and intellectuals from Chile, Peru, Colombia and other countries of Latin America - and proposes an interpretation: in the interwar period, the reform movement was a social movement. Its decline as a social movement correlates with the end of the second world war and the birth of Peronism.
