This article summarizes ideas and critical positions on Youth and Adults Education (EJA) in Argentina. These ideas are the product of conceptual and political discussions at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Buenos Aires, where the author is a researcher. These ideas are also influenced by the experience in pedagogical political management teams of the Ministry of National Education and the union militancy developed by the author. The work contains conceptual precisions about the EJA and its subjects, the recent history of the modality and the current pedagogical and political scenario. At the dawn of the 21st century, the changes in Argentine education marked a stage of optimism for the EJA that lasted until a conservative turnaround took place at the end of 2015 with the arrival of the Cambiemos Alliance, an expression of the democratic right that He won the elections by 51% of the votes.

Keywords : Education; Adults; Rights; Politics; Neoliberalism.
