Resumen
Ante los procesos de expansión que ha experimentado la matrícula del sector privado en la Argentina en los últimos años y para todos los niveles, este artículo explora por qué los adultos a cargo de niños eligen la escuela privada. Partiendo del supuesto de una vacancia de estudios que contextualicen e historicen la relación que los distintos grupos sociales han tenido con las instituciones de este tipo de gestión, el trabajo indaga en los modos que históricamente ha asumido el vínculo entre la clase alta argentina y este subsector del sistema educativo. Desde un enfoque socioantropológico basado en el análisis de las trayectorias educativas de tres generaciones dentro de este grupo social, el artículo documenta la temprana conformación de un circuito de escuelas privadas católicas que atendieron a los sectores más privilegiados de este país. Instituciones que no destacan por un alto nivel académico mantienen su relevancia en las experiencias formativas de las familias tradicionales todo a lo largo del siglo XX. El atractivo de estas escuelas radica en su productividad para garantizar el requisito imprescindible para la reproducción de la clase alta -la sociabilidad entre pares- y mucho menos en la transmisión de saberes para la ocupación de puestos de poder.
In view of the expansion processes private education has undergone in recent years in Argentina, this article explores why adults choose private schools for their children. Assuming a vacancy of studies interested in the relationship that the different social groups have had with this type of institutions, the paper describes the relation between Argentinean upper class and this subsector of the educational system. From a socio-anthropological approach based on the analysis of the educational trajectories of three generations within this social group, the article documents the early formation of a circuit of private catholic schools that served the most privileged sectors of this country. Institutions that do not stand out for a high academic level maintain their relevance in the formative experiences of traditional families in Argentina throughout the twentieth century. The appeal of these schools lies in their productivity to guarantee the essential requirement for the reproduction of the upper class - the sociability between peers - and much less in the transmission of knowledge to take positions of power.
