Descripción:This article analyzes the historical memory of the intervention and repression suffered by the University of El Salvador (UES) during the political violence of the 1970s and the civil war from 1980 to 1992 documented in the journal La Universidad. To achieve the above, a content analysis is applied to the articles that refer to the experience lived by the university during that period. The authors analyzed emphasize that the UES was repressed due to the historical identification it has had with the interests of the subaltern classes, which was interpreted as a threat by the dominant elite and the military governments. La Universidad is constituted as a space for the recovery of institutional historical memory, keeping alive the memory of the repression suffered and incorporating this experience into the identity of the UES. The foregoing is an important input to support legal processes that lead to ending impunity for these events and demand that the university be compensated.
