Abstract
The reformist youth movement that emerged at the National University of Córdoba in 1918 was the instigator of a political-academic culture of the Argentine Public University. A matrix interpellated, discussed, resignified polyphonically according to the challenges of the times in the last hundred years. It also had an explicit Latin American projection, interlocution between "new generations" that made the movement a fertile territory to think about the region in the critical climate of the 1920s. The aim of the article is to analyze this reformist scene on three levels: at the institutional level and in the distribution of power at the Universities and at the level of beliefs and transcendences. In the latter we will explore the Latin American projection of the Reformism movement building some bridges between the 1920s and the 1960s.
