The student movement between two times political culture, roles and consumption. The 60’s

Abstract

In the history of the student movement, conflict has been the answer to multiple states of academic and political inconformity with regard to the social environment and university practice. Forty years after the great student movements in Colombia, Latin America and the world, the protests, marches, meetings and all types of movement can only be understood from a political and cultural reflection that goes beyond the syllabi, in order to ask oneself about topics that have not lost importance: the perfect state of society and the university, government and the social projection of the university among others. All reflection concerning curriculum is an analytical look at education and what it hopes to be which is then transformed into an ideal of permanent construction. An ideal which in this case, will try to unite the important topics and problems of the sixties, in particular 1968, with the present day situation. The history of the student movement implies a reflection on the academic, political and social demands that have been made during various generations. This being said, although many states of inconformity and protest have changed others remain like a wheel that acquires its own momentum according to the social and educational context.
