MENDEZ, Jorgelina. “From intellectual to expert” in the Argentinian education field in the 1960s. The case of the Center for Research in Educational Sciences. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.3, pp.708-727. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/PraxEduc.v.12i3.002.

This work investigates a particular institution, the Center for Research in Educational Sciences of the Torcuato Di Tella Institute, where the necessary elements were combined to define the profile of an expert in education. Throughout the 1960s the Social Sciences, including Educational Research, had a strong growth and development, which was called modernization. This generated new academic and professional profiles, where the expert stands out. In Argentina this process was generated in a context of political instability and conflicts between governments and universities. Taking the historical context into account, we analyzed the characteristics of the center, the researchers who worked there and the activities carried out during the first period of operation seeking to characterize the “expert” in education.
