JOVENS ESTUDANTES DO IEG: MEMÓRIAS DO MOVIMENTO ESTUDANTIL (1964 A 1968).

Abstract

This dissertation aimed at investigating the Student Movement held in Instituto de Educação of Goiás (Institute of Education of Goiás - IEG) from 1964 to 1968. The objective of this work is: to build the memories of a group of women that took part in the Student Movement during that period at IEG,: to research and organize the documents about this Movement and also to register and analyze the Youth Movements of that period. In the 1960s, after a coup d´état, Brazil went through a military dictatorship system, which caused persecution, torture, censorship to people and society. The Student Movement in Brazil had a big repercussion and the young people showed their political consciousness during the demonstrations that took part in many countries. As IEG was a school for girls only, their legacy left important and significant contributions. Therefore, from the female students narratives, it was possible to understand how the Student Movement allowed building experience and the formation of leaders. Nevertheless, there is a lack of discussion of the female legacy in the Movement. The question that arises in this study is: can the 1964-1968 Student Movement be considered a phenomenon of the youth that contributed to the formation of young women and their insertion in the public scenery? Thus, the contribution of the young female students in the Student Movement allowed thinking about the preservation of forgotten memory of important events and making them visible and acknowledged by new generations.
