Resumen

This article aims to explain the resurgence of student activity will be described after the government intervention and the various cycles of protests that were experienced in the university scene from 2001 to 2008. In relation to this, it is evident that the union reactivation gained momentum with the fall of the Fujimori regime; however, it was intermittent, having mainly a defensive capacity rather than a proactive one, and expressing a certain radicalism against attempts to implement privatization policies.
