Crisis, radicalización y política en el Taller Total de Córdoba, 1970-1975

Abstract

espanolEl Taller Total fue, probablemente, una de los episodios mas ricos y complejos en la historia de las universidades nacionales de Argentina, en donde se superpusieron radicalizacion politica, discusiones disciplinares y debates pedagogicos. Producto de una serie de crisis –universitaria, institucional, social, disciplinar– que se venian gestando desde tiempo atras, el TT se presenta como un excelente caso para indagar en las relaciones que se dieron entre arquitectura y politica. El presente articulo se propone una reconstruccion de los procesos que llevaron al TT asi como un analisis de su dinamica, procurando avanzar sobre algunas practicas urbano-­‐‑arquitectonicas. EnglishThe Taller Total was, probably, one of the richest and most complex episodes in the history of Argentinean national Universities, in which political radicalization, architectural discussions and pedagogical debates overlapped. Taller Total was the product of a series of long brewing crises involving institutions, politics, society, the university, and the discipline of Architecture itself. For those reasons, it is an excellent case to enquire about the relationship between architecture and politics. The present article aims to reconstruct the processes that led to the experience of Taller Total, as well as to analyze its inner dynamics, and to advance in the identification of some urban-­‐‑architectonic practices.
