LUCA, Romina de and ALVAREZ PRIETO, Natalia. A comparative analysis of organic educational reforms of the sixties and nineties in Argentina. Transformation or trends consolidation?. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.1, pp.378-397. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v15n1-2016-14.
This article analyze, comparatively, two central moments of educational transformation in Argentina: the reform process inaugurated by the Organic Law of Education (1968-1971) and the enactment of Federal Law of Education (1993). Both inaugurated a process of organic reform that affected the overall educational levels and all aspects of school life (system structure, curriculum, evaluation standards, disciplinary rules, etc.). In order to realize the objectives proposed here, various documentary sources are examined: legislation, educational standards, school documents and reports by government agencies. Their analysis shows that the reform carried out in the sixties sought to consolidate a number of trends that had been developing since 1955, such as educational decentralization and regionalization curriculum. And while reform was disbanded soon, his footprints remain in the processes of educational change later, as is the case of the enactment of the Federal Law on the nineties.
