Abstract

The present work aims to analyze the allusions to the International Pedagogical Congress (CPI) of 1882 that were made within the framework of the National Pedagogical Congress (CPN) of 1984. The concept of homology is used as a methodological resource to examine the general political framework in which both events took place and thus understand the political motivations that made them possible and recreated a collective imaginary. It has been found that the commemoration of the CPI in the CPN framework was part of the transition to democracy and the re-founding initiative of President Raúl Alfonsín, exceeding its strictly pedagogical objectives. In addition, it must be concluded that the political context of the first presidency of Julio Roca and that of Alfonsín, despite the differences, are to some extent comparable in that pedagogical congresses were used as ways to consolidate the nation and seek margins of governance.
