Registro datado de acontecimientos y procesos como archivo del desarrollo de la sociología en Paraguay. Parte I: de 1900 a la década de los 80’

: The general objective is to continue thickening and completing the puzzle-like network of the spaces between the nodes that create and expand new quadrants of the field of local sociology. As materials, events dated by a chronology and documented references are considered; and how changes in its institutional framework, activities, editorial spaces, professional associations, cooperation, local and international training, access and financing for research were generated in the historical dynamics. The method is qualitative, the techniques combine interviews, documentary checklists, analysis of secondary data and content, seeking through triangulation the qualitative saturation that enables the work of registration and archiving. Among the main results and conclusions, it is evident that the field begins to be designed historically with the gradual and slow entry of the discipline by the university sociology chair, in a subordinate way to the law degree in a public university. On the other hand, after almost seven decades, the emergence of the first autonomous institutional development as a degree course in the history of the country took place in the experience of the Catholic University "Nuestra Señora de la Asunción"; and, under the modality of a private research center in the area of social sciences, that of the CPES as La Catedral with its banner, the Paraguayan Journal of Sociology, Social Sciences Publication for Latin America. Other chapels will follow with the end of the dictatorship and the beginning of the democratic opening.
