Part of this mission consists in reflecting upon their societies’ socio-cultural backgrounds, in order not only to recognize their positive aspects, but also to question those political philosophical models that, responding to other contexts, have been mechanically imposed in the region. This task is illustrated with a reflection upon the political philosophy developed by Guatemalan ex-president Juan José Arévalo, an educator and philosopher who governed Guatemala from 1945 to 1950.  Este trabajo argumenta que las universidades latinoamericanas contemporáneas deben asumir algunas de las tareas de regeneración ética y política de sociedades, cuya viabilidad está en cuestión debido a la corrupción, la violencia y la exclusión que las ha afectado desde su mismo origen. Las universidades latinoamericanas deben encontrar los propios caminos de superación de esta crisis sistémica por medio de la reflexión sobre los propios contextos socioculturales de las sociedades que las albergan.Esto implica buscar de manera crítica las vetas positivas de los contextos culturales que han generado nuestras sociedades y cuestionar los modelos filosóficos políticos que, originándose en otros contextos sociohistóricos, se quieren imponer de manera mecánica en nuestras sociedades. La filosofía política del expresidente guatemalteco Juan José Arévalo, un profesional de la pedagogía y la filosofía que gobernó a Guatemala de 1945 a 1950 muestra que esto es posible.application/pdfspaspaSociedad de Historia de la Educación Latinoamericana y la Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/historia_educacion_latinamerican/article/view/2686/2511Copyright (c) 2014 Journal History of Latin American Educationhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf277http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Revista Historia de la Educación Latinoamericana; Vol. 16 No. 22 (2014): Jose Pedro Varela; 19-34Revista Historia de la Educación Latinoamericana; Vol. 16 Núm. 22 (2014): Jose Pedro Varela; 19-342256-52480122-7238JournalHistory of Latin American EducationuniversityinequalityethicscultureSocial SciencesRevista Historia de la Educación Latinoamericanauniversidaddesigualdadéticacultura.Ciencias SocialesLatin American Universities: Between Tradition and FutureLa Universidad Latinoamericana como recuperación y futuroinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6776http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a360http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Rodríguez-Martínez, Jorge Mario001/14668oai:repositorio.uptc.edu.co:001/146682025-07-18 12:00:42.825https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uptc.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UPTCrepositorio.uptc@uptc.edu.co
