Abstract
- El artículo presenta los avances de una investigación referida a la construcción de un campo científico psi en Argentina durante el período de entreguerras, con foco en espacios subnacionales. A partir de 1920, el movimiento de la higiene mental, en sus diferentes expresiones disciplinares, adquirió una notable presencia en la esfera pública, en la enseñanza universitaria y – tardíamente – en las políticas de salud, en un movimiento expansivo que derivó en la conformación de un campo autónomo y con lógicas propias. Sostenemos que la constitución de dicho “campo psi” – en tanto inexistente – fue posible mayormente por la fuerza de redes de sociabilidad que facilitaron la gestión de recursos y espacios institucionales de poder que permitieron autonomizar y constituir el campo.<br />This article presents the findings of a research study on the construction of a psy scientific field in Argentina during the inter-war period, with a focus on subnational spaces. After 1920, the mental hygiene movement, in its different disciplinary manifestations, became notable in the public sphere, in university education and – belatedly – in healthcare policies, in an expansion that led to the creation of an autonomous field with its own logic. I argue that the creation of this “psy field” – while it was as yet inexistent – was largely due to the strength of sociability networks that facilitated the management of resources and institutional spaces of power, making it possible for the field to become independent and established.<br />Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación
