LA CONSTRUCIÓN DE HEGEMONÍA DURANTE LOS AÑOS OCHENTA EN ARGENTINA

La alfabetización como estrategia del Estado para educar el consenso

Abstract

In this paper we present some ideas and concepts about the relationship between hegemony and education through the study of a particular historical moment in the history of Argentina, Raúl Alfonsín´s goverment (1983-1989), and the analysis of educational policy implemented by the government: the National Literacy Project. We understand that the Project consisted in a pedagogical strategy of hegemony to educate the consensus. The National Literacy Project was oriented to the transmission, distribution and internalization of a worldview to contribute to the consolidation of the necessary legitimacy to the (new) hegemonic project.
