| Sumario: | This paper proposes an uncommon intersection between the field of social studies of science, university policies and the field of territory production. It presents some keys to unravel the university-society relationship dynamics through a specific case of dispute over territorial appropriation between the Cuyo National University and the communities of a popular settlement, the Flores Oeste neighborhood, in the City of Mendoza, Argentina.Starting with an historical-structural reconstruction, it analyzes the modalities that research and extension functions adopted during the first decades of the university history, as privileged ways of connection with society. Then it focuses in the second half of the '60s when the University Campus was founded in the same place where a large group of families were already settled. It also analyses the space elitization process as a product of a political-academic project, according to development proposals. Likewise it highlights the existence of alternative agent’s networks that promoted disruptive practices together with the working class-grassroots sectors who offered resistance to the modernizing model in force at that time. The study watches over the tensions produced between the university polices and the political, cultural, social and territorial conflicts resulting from them. |
