El artículo sostiene que los valores de pluralidad intelectual, libertad de cátedra y autonomía son consustantivos a la UNAM desde su fundación. Naturalmente, la afirmación de estos valores no ha sido una empresa libre de obstáculos y dificultades tal y como un rápido reacomodo sobre su propia historia así lo demuestra. Además, la Universidad, pese a su indiscutible importancia en cuanto generadora de conocimiento y alta cultura, es una institución sumamente vulnerable. En este sentido, el artículo defiende la tesis que sostiene que las fragilidades intrínsecas de la universidad -y de la educación superior, en general- están siendo aprovechadas por las altas estructuras burocráticas encargadas de manejar la educación pública en México para cancelar su autonomía y su libertad. De esta suerte, el autor del artículo sostiene que a partir de una lectura maliciosa y sesgada del deterioro de la educación pública, se busca impulsar un proyecto de transformación de la misma bajo una perspectiva privatizadora. Por tanto, la principal consecuencia que tales proyectos "modernizadores" guardan no es otra más que la eliminación del cometido político desempeñado por la Universidad el cual consiste en democratizar el acceso a los bienes que generan sus funciones.... view less

Naturally, asserting these values has not been anenterprise free of obstacles and difficulties, as a quick review of its own history shows. In spite of undisputedly being an importantgeneratorof culture and higher knowledge, the UNAM is an institution quite vulnerable. In this sense, the article stands behind the thesis that maintains that the high bureaucraticstructures responsible for managing public education in Mexico have taken advantage of the inherent fragility of the UNAM -and of higher education as a whole- to cancel its autonomy and its freedom. The author maintains that, starting with a malicious and slanted reading of the decay of publichigher education, the search tor a project to transform and privatize it is underway. Therefore, the main consequence that such "modernizing" projects share is none other than to eliminate the political commitment performed by the unam, directed at democratizing access to the goods generated by its functions.... view less
