This fact is very important since it makes a substantial difference from the social-historical and legal point of view, considering that the partial amendment made in 1970, university autonomy is not such full anymore, otherwise it is restricted; and nowadays it is a transformed university autonomy. All this has occurred from 1958 to 2018, which I have called historical praxis of university autonomy.esDecreeAutonomyGovernment (linguistics)Political scienceHumanitiesPraxisLawSociologyarticle
