Constitution of instituting meanings in the Colombian university of the 21st century. The case of the student movement

This article discusses the role of the Colombian university student movement between 2011 and 2018 in terms of its ways of constituting political subjectivity and achieving discur­sive hegemony through resistance practices associated with the social imaginary, memory and identity. The forms of student political participation or their practices of resistance are shown in moments of latency (or daily university life when there is no strike), as well as in contentious moments (those when there is confrontation or strike, specifically, national strike). In terms of political subjectivity, the university student movement has generated optimism and hope in the social movement, new repertoires of action with which values and meanings are installed, but they will surely be replaced in the future by other new meanings.
