FIORITO, Mariana. La enseñanza media y la agenda de ocupación territorial del estado argentino, 1862-1945. Hist. educ. anu. [online]. 2012, vol.13, n.1. ISSN 2313-9277.

The high schools that depended of the Argentine State were milestones that marked, in many cities of the country, a double means of action: the territorial occupation and the modernization. These buildings represented an attempt of the national State to establish dynamic links with the inhabitants, to generate a sense of social citizenship and the feeling of belonging to a uniform nation: the Argentine nation. The aim of this work is to rebuild the institutional occupation of Argentine territory. The challenge is to see the path from the ideology to the actual occupation of the territory by defining the patterns of the consolidation of the national State, focusing not on the scholar architecture of buildings, but on their presence as media representing the nation-state. The methodology consists in the use, draft and analysis of a series of maps of the occupation of the territory, the expansion of transport networks and the location of the centers of different types of high schools (Colegios Nacionales, Escuelas Industriales, Escuelas de Artes y Oficios, Escuelas Comerciales y Escuelas Normales) in the Argentine territory, at three different moments in the history of the country: the project and construction of the possible republic (1862-1916), the real republic (1916-1930) and the impossible republic (1930-1945).
