BERNA, Leonor. Dangerous enemies. Crackdown on political and secondary education teachers, during the last dictatorship control in Uruguay (1973 and 1984). Rev. Reflex [online]. 2015, vol.23, n.2, pp.141-169. ISSN 1982-9949. https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v23i2.6389.
This article attempts to describe the main mechanisms of control and repression, that were applied to the teaching staff of secondary education during the last dictatorship. We seek to show how, under the political control the Law no.14.101 imposed, the 1975 intervention, seeks to convert the education system in to a tool of the regime for disciplining and legitimizing. To this end, the sanctions and dismissals of all education workers who do not prove to be involved will be intensified.
