Abstract This article presents an analysis of the educational dimension of the practices inherent to the territorial militancy of a social organization based in the city of Córdoba. It is an inquiry that inscribes in broader anthropological research about the educational experiences reaped within social movements. Taking a relational methodological and theoretical approach, we reconstruct the daily knowledge subjects gain when involved in territorial militancy. To this end, we analyze both life stories obtained from in-depth interviews and militant routines reconstructed from participant observations. This exploration allows us to show how subjects incorporate the skills and the forms of know-how required in territorial militancy according to specific social and political contexts and in interaction with state agents, policies, and actions. The transformations, crises, and reconversions that act upon this knowledge reveal the interpenetration that occurs between the daily life of the subjects and the broader social contexts that shape it.

Keywords : Anthropology; Education; Politics; Relational approach.
