The university revolution of Julio V. González

Abstract

This work tries to explore the construction of one of the images that one has about the University Reform shortly after its events, an image that tries to enhance the revolutionary character of the events of Córdoba in 1918. For this, we will concentrate our attention on the production by Julio V. González, one of the protagonists who postulated the need to expand the disconnection of a new generation of university students outside the framework of the University. Son of Joaquín V. González, one of the modernist leaders of the generation of 80, Julio V. González participated from the beginning in the University Reform. In 1919 he became the youngest president of the FUA. And later he wrote a trilogy where I theorize about the reform. Initiated with the university revolution of 1922, which was followed by the university reform of 1927) and the university emancipation of 1929.

The objective of this work is toanalyze the narration of Julio V. González of the facts and principles of the Reformation of 18, in search of finding its particularities. In this way, we will focus our study on the interpretation of the historical background of the Reformation established by him (advent of radicalism, World War I and the Russian Revolution), as well as the evaluation of the use of violence in his first work, The university revolution of 1922.
