Abstract

Based upon the analysis of a personal trajectory which implied shifting between Peruvian and Chilean academic milieus, this paper argues how in despite of new evaluations modalities (rankings, the search for isomorphic structures of argumentation and linguistic forms or even the fiction of global sociologies), particular academic cultures stay alive. In this regard, it intends to show that the singularity of intellectual styles, forms of professional sociability or even of linguistic and rhetoric uses in each one of them are nothing else but the manner in which each local academic culture answers to their different social and political challenges departing from their differing specific traditions and, in so doing, they achieve to play their public and critical role.
