Abstract

This article addresses some aspects of the conservative offensive currently underway in Uruguayan education through the analysis of two types of phenomena: a) a set of changes promoted in educational legislation during 2020; b) the use that government authorities have developed of the principle of secularism. Based on a conceptual framework sensitive to the discursive construction processes that dispute hegemonic meanings at a social level, the article pays attention to the post-political and post-ideological manifestations that characterize the conservative offensive. From the methodological point of view, the work is carried out with documentary sources (parliamentary acts, legal texts, official resolutions by educational authorities and expressions by key actors). The article as a whole aims to provide elements for the understanding of the effects that the deployment of a conservative discourse has been producing in the Uruguayan case in order to show its particularities in the broader context of deployment of conservatism at a global level.
