Abstract
This historical-pedagogical study explores the participation of Antioquia in the discussions on degeneration and regeneration of race in the context of the instructional national reform of 1903. Using documental analysis of the discourse of the epoch (embodied in laws, decrees, publications in the Revista de Instrucción pública and texts of educators —pedagogues— and intellectuals), the article shows how decadence of race was understood in Antioquia as a result of poor physical condition, the negative impact this had on intellectual development and the search for a regenerative cure which aimed to alleviate physical insufficiencies in eugenic terms. As we shall see, these debates on the body were a reflection of other debates on a larger one: the national body.
