| description | This article studies a problem that has not yet been explored in the field of the history of Argentine sociology: the centrality acquired by the sociology of Córdoba compared to the sociology of Buenos Aires during the years from the 1918 University Reform to the foundation of the Institute of Sociology of Buenos Aires in 1940. The lack of texts written from Buenos Aires that identify key problems in this period is an indicator of the type of history that has been written about the institutional development of Argentine sociology, that is, the one focus on the capital of the country after the foundations of the department and the career at the University of Buenos Aires in 1957. For this reason, the article will focus on reconstructing the intellectual bets made by the two professors of “Sociology” of the main Argentine universities of that time: Ricardo Levene and Raúl Orgaz. Taking into account the contributions to the sociology of knowledge of Karl Mannheim, Robert Merton and Pierre Bourdieu, an explanation may be given of the reasons why Orgaz leaned towards sociology, performing a work of permanent updating of the sociological novelties at international level and, as a correlate, of production around them, while Levene showed no progress in this regard, performing a poor production in relation to sociology. |

El presente artículo estudia un problema que aún no ha sido explorado en el campo de la historia de la sociología argentina: la centralidad que adquirió la sociología cordobesa comparada con la sociología porteña durante los años que van desde la Reforma Universitaria de 1918 hasta la fundación del Instituto de Sociología de Buenos Aires en 1940. La ausencia de textos redactados desde Buenos Aires que identifiquen problemas clave de este período es un indicador del tipo de historia que se ha escrito sobre el desarrollo institucional de la sociología argentina, es decir, aquella que se centró en la capital del país luego de las fundaciones del departamento y la carrera en la Universidad de Buenos Aires en 1957. Por este motivo, el artículo se abocará a reconstruir las apuestas intelectuales que realizaron los dos titulares de “Sociología” de las principales universidades argentinas de la época: Ricardo Levene y Raúl Orgaz. Tomando en cuenta los aportes a la sociología del conocimiento de Karl Mannheim, Robert Merton y Pierre Bourdieu, podrá brindarse una explicación de los motivos por los cuales Orgaz se inclinó hacia la sociología, realizando una labor de actualización permanente de las novedades sociológicas a nivel internacional y, como correlato, de producción en torno a ellas, mientras Levene no mostró avances en este sentido, dando cuenta de una magra producción en relación con la sociología.
