    Drawing from a case study of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico , this work analyses the connection between political processes and change in higher education. The author explains that while there are increasing demands these have not produced rapid responses from the university and tries to understand why this lack of response has generated internal and external tensions and conflictive dynamics.
