Summary: | Despite repeated evocations of the student struggles of the 1960s and 1970s, blanks and misunderstandings persist which lead to the presence of a too selective memory. This paper links the student movements of the time with the mutations which have since taken place in the field of Coimbra’s traditional student codes (‘praxe académica’), highlighting how, over a period of some two decades, a new way of being and acting was constructed, creating a distance from the topics of Coimbra’s traditions and even a break with these. At the same time, this paper problematizes the image of a time of dissidence focused almost exclusively on the ‘1969 crisis’, drawing attention to a number of forgotten margins promoted by the association of the memory of student dissent in the ‘lengthy sixties’ to that more noteworthy moment. |
