Editar en la universidad, una construcción permanente

Abstract

One of the main tasks that are developed by the university is editing and publishing contents. To the Latin american case, this process, is relatively new and in order to achieve the goal, each of the branches that make part of the whole university body had to review what does editing mean in the academic environment and specially, what its social function is. Many are the achievements and findings in the past decades but also it is clear that the training and the will to learn are there; the editing activity is alive, in constant improvement and it certainly is a passionating labor. That’s the reason why we should be open minded to the challenges. The purpose of this text is to reflect about the editorial achievements and propose new editorial paths.
