Mora is the expression of the Interdisciplinary Institute for Gender Studies of the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Buenos Aires. This inscription is an identity mark. A place of crossroads, of circulation of initiatives and ideas in the field of the "humanities". A territory that allows us to critically address the place of women in the social historical process, go through the symbolic representations and gender constructions in the different social discourses and in artistic languages, rethink the philosophical apparatuses, the constitution of the imaginaries, their power and its validity, review the problematic relationship between education and women. In this way, we try to draw mobile and brittle lines in the disciplinary limits that allow us to review and intercept those limits (Editorial, Mora 1, 1995) .
