Abstract

This work is part of the problem of the exclusion of children's participation in politics in general and school management in particular. Part of the development of the doctoral thesis that supports it focused on the analysis of two educational experiences promoted at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century in which children were incorporated into school management.

In this article I will delve into the analysis of the debate that took place in the Chamber of Deputies of the Province of Mendoza in 1936, in which the relevance of the experience of school self-government led by the teacher Florencia Fossatti and that had resulting in his suspension.

The analysis of the documents of the time focuses on the social and political assumptions that structured the arguments presented for and against the experience in question and intends to investigate the question of the relationship between the sanction that Fossatti received and the Consolidation of the absence of school governments in the Argentine primary school throughout the subsequent decades.
