Saturday, March 28th, 2020

The scientific and social division of labour, its mechanization, the diversification of labor, new professions, the rural exodus, the social inequalities caused by differential access to the labour market, creating a climate of uncertainty and disorientation before incorporation into the labour market. With the advent of the industrial revolution vocational guidance begins to respond to the new working class and to connect the school with the world of work, within the framework of the movements the compensation of social inequalities and human rights defenders. To develop the industry, the frequency of occupational accidents and the inadequate job performance moves Munsterberg and Taylor became interested by the human factor and the problem of the choice of each person depending on the type of activity that you want to develop. Although it is difficult to identify the exact time of the birth of vocational guidance the majority of authors have placed it in 1908, when the engineer Frank Parsons, linked to the progressive movement in education, he founded the first Center of orientation the Vocational Bureau in Boston, dependent on a centre of social services, Civic Service-House, and publishes his work Choosing a Vocation, which is the essence of the approach of characteristics and factors in 1909. In these early vocational guidance takes place outside the educational framework regulated, in North American context and without the support of psychologists, sociologists and educators. In this regard, it is important to point out that it is going to be incipient differential psychology and psychometrics disciplines that vocational guidance service, put the bases for personal needs analysis and the creation of simple models of selection and orientation with a predictive value. From the Decade of the fifties, begins the interest by contrast and the adequacy of the concept of himself with the occupational realities, giving entry to occupational sociology, economy and an evolutionary approach in the individual dynamics. .

Colombian Presidency

Saturday, January 4th, 2020

As many Colombian analysts have said, it is evident that what we have in our hands is not a violence that is resolved with an armed intervention, with the Plan Colombia fumigation, with the growing army of the current Colombian Presidency. This violence, like other contemporary, is characterized by a multiplication and sobre-imposicion of different types of violence, says Daniel Pecaut: at this time the violence is a widespread situation, is the rule. All phenomena are consistent with each other. You can be considered, as in our case, that put in work by the protagonists organized violence constitutes the framework in which violence develops. However we cannot ignore that the disorganized violence contributes to enlarge the field of organized violence.

An and another mutually. It would be very presumptuous to pretend to still draw clear lines between violence policy and one that isn’t it safe is that no one is sheltered from the impact of the phenomena of violence (2001: 90). Since the multiplication of these spaces society is becoming, Daniel Pecaut, expressed in a non-place where the relations of private space and the public are mediated by the sobre-imposicion and multiplication of the tactics of suspicion, so ably enacted by violent actors (Pecaut 2001: 239) the case of violence that are superimponen each other is not only Colombian. As well Teresa Caldeira sets out to analyse the case of Sao Paulo: the increase in violence is the result of a complex cycle that includes factors such as violent police reaction pattern; mistrust in the justice system as legitimate and public mediator of the conflict and a just rebuke provider; violent and private responses to crime; resistance to democratization; and weak awareness of the population of individual rights and its support for violent forms of punishment (Caldeira 2000: 105). In Colombia, a country where, as well Marco Palacios, said the collective fratricide has been a source of nationality and violence one of the generalized population identifying factors, the rule is precisely the way as the State of violence constitutes in mediator of social relations and widespread cultural factor.
