The university extension constitutes a fundamental dimension of Higher Education, which promotes the university's relationship with society, with a view to an integral and citizen education. This research was developed within the scope of the studies of the Research Group on Public Policies and Educational Management (GESTAR/CNPq), together with the Doctoral course in Education, in the line “Public Educational Policies, Educational Practices and their Interfaces” of the Postgraduate Program. degree in Education (PPGE), from the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM). The objective was to understand the configurations of university extension in Brazil and Argentina in emerging contexts of Higher Education. For specific objectives, priority was given to: Contextualizing the historical, educational and political aspects of university extension in Brazil and Argentina; To characterize aspects related to the context of practice in management processes and extension policies at UFSM and UNC; Recognize and analyze socio-educational elements and agents related to university extension in Brazil and Argentina, in emerging contexts in higher education from an analytical device of its own. Methodologically, the research consisted of a comparative case study, from the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC) and the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), based on a qualitative approach (BARTLETT; VAVRUS, 2016), using the literature review, document analysis, interviews with institutional managers from both Universities and observation of international, national and local university extension events. In order to process the data, in addition to the comparative perspective, a device for analyzing emerging contexts in the field of education is proposed, based on BOURDIEU (1983). Therefore, the thesis is defended that university extension is constantly renewed, in view of the emerging contexts that can be identified through the analysis device in the analyzed university institutions; from the Córdoba Reform (1918) to the present, from epistemological ruptures and the curricular structure, which, currently, has been promoting the rearticulation of curricular policies, management and pedagogical practices in Higher Education institutions, both in Brazil and in Argentina, moreover, it is related to paradigmatic changes focused on a democratic and plural university model. Therefore, university extension has never been and is not a weak link in the “university tripod”, as it mobilized all university reforms that took place in Latin America, having the potential for academic and social consolidation in Higher Education Institutions in Brazil and Argentina.
