Abstract

The foundation of the University was one of the most ambitious projects of the liberal reformist elite of the province of Tucumán. This creation had his base in a regional oriented thinking that defied the “university monopoly” of Buenos Aires and Córdoba and promoted the cultural decentralization of the Argentine Republic. It maintain that this institution would contribute to re-establish the regional balance disturbed by the very rapid development of the area of the pampas and would strengthen the federal political structure of the national State. The Tucumán elite take on the leadership of this enterprise which received the support of the middle classes of the city of San Miguel de Tucumán.
