Higher artistic education in the Spanish educational organization. A critical approach

Abstract

At the end of the 20th century, the process of integration of higher education in the university was completed in Spain. However, the schools of artistic education were kept out of the university, due to diverse reasons among which the most recurrent seems to be a supposed singularity that would ask for their own ecosystem. With this article, written after a review of laws and rules and pertinent literature in the field of the History of Education, we analyse the reasons behind the most critical arguments against the university option and we also consider some ideas related to some supposed advances due to recent educational laws. As a result, we defend that the integration in the university is the best option to develop the potential of such studies, the most suitable for the challenges they have to face and the one that best pursues the public weal.
