Políticas del lenguaje en la gestión institucional de Ciencia y Tecnología. El caso de la Universidad Nacional de Hurlingham

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on the dimensions of language policy present in the Science and Technology (S&T) management tools developed at Universidad Nacional de Hurlingham (UNAHUR). To this end, it addresses a corpus composed of institutional documents, which were not created as political-linguistic instruments but that allow the identification of political orientations or determinations regarding language in a broad sense, encompassing references to languages, archives, and discursive and writing practices within UNAHUR’s management of S&T. In particular, the analysis connects metalinguistic utterances with conceptions of science, technology, research, and knowledge woven throughout the corpus, considering the productive, political-pedagogical, social, and historical conditions of the institution. Through a case study, the paper examines the productivity of approaching these tools from a perspective that integrates language policies and conditions of discourse production. This article aims to circulate knowledge that could be productive both for training in scientific practice and for potential political-linguistic interventions in R&D&i management areas.
