Amelia Podetti: a forgotten trajectory of the National Chairs

Abstract

University Chairs involved a political and intellectual construct aimed at transferring resistance to the so-called Argentine Revolution dictatorship to the academic field, thus developing a shared national thought among sociology students between 1967 and 1972. Amelia Podetti played a key role by delivering the Argentine Thought Seminar and turned out to be one of the leading voices of the philosophical movement among the main university chairs. Against the overwhelming majority those days, this philosopher did not engage in the popular Peronist left. Quite on the contrary, she was involved with the orthodox Peronism by joining a faction called the Iron Guard. Thus, as opposed to a well-known sociologist called Roberto Carri, she failed to give up her academic work seeking to become a warrior in the 1973 scenario. Instead, she devised and rolled the third period of a journal of theoretical politics entitled Hechos e ideas (Facts & Ideas) with a view to fostering an intellectual programme to take part in the political arena. This paper aims to depict and reconstruct the highlights of her career path as it is thought to be an epitome of the political and intellectual movement that hit the warlike seventies of antagonist ideas, thus reflecting and encouraging the political belligerence at stake.
