Resumen
El artículo aborda un acontecimiento histórico poco estudiado, pero muchas veces aludido. Para ello se intenta ofrecer, de manera preliminar, una síntesis interpretativa y una caracterización de la movilización opuesta al contrato-ley entre el Estado costarricense y la Aluminium Company of America (ALCOA), cuyo protagonista principal fue el componente estudiantil universitario. Tal investigación se hace mediante la descripción y el análisis del movimiento, indagando causas, composición, formas de
acción, discursividades y consecuencias. Además, se analizan las principales respuestas dadas −mediante acciones y discursividades− por parte de contendientes nacionales del movimiento: los entes gubernamentales y los medios de comunicación.
