Discursive institutionalization of the research

Abstract:

Through the structure of the discourse institutionalism, I analyze the sense of the research which was institutionalized during the educational transformation in Ecuador. I reveal that discourse, as a mean of transferring national power, becomes a key for the construction of tools that condition the social practices of institutions. Likewise, I demonstrate that an institutional change is linked to ideas and that contexts are not saturated in their definition, making it possible for tensions between the center and the edge of research as a tool to guarantee its representational turns, its self-updating, and its institutional effectiveness.
