Malas relaciones: Prensa y movimiento estudiantil universitario en Chile a fines de la dictadura e inicios de la transición democrática (c. 1988 - c. 1998)

Abstract

The Chilean university student movement was an active opponent of the civic-military dictatorship led by Augusto Pinochet, using diverse repertoires of action, copying spaces properly university as well as public and implementing actions in pursuit of their own objectives or allying with other groups for higher political purposes. Once the agreed output of the dictatorship had been produced, the movement had to rebuild its agenda, modes of organization, and forms of action in a transitional democracy concerned with lessening the action of social movements for the sake of governance. This text seeks to interpret some milestones of the relationship that was established between the written press and university student movement throughout the study period.
