description |
For at least the last thirty years, the promise has been projected that scientific and technological progress will guarantee economic development and social well-being, realizing the values of reason and well-being for everyone. Contrary to the great hopes and achievements foreseen by the globalization movement in the world, today we are experiencing a reconfiguration of exclusion that has been intensified with the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 disease, and which has resulted in the exacerbation of the inequalities that are projected to the world as a fragmented space, in which, a few benefit from the concentration of wealth that leads large segments of the world's population to live on the margins of the so-called "civilization." This is the case of access to higher education in Mexico, but also of its permanence and relationship with inequality. In particular, it is interesting to revalue the relationships between higher education - specifically vocational training in public universities - science, technology and innovation (STI) and their participation in this process, in the light of theoretical perspectives that recognize the capitalist system as main limit to a real transformation in the current socioeconomic structure, even more so in times of COVID-19. From a normative vision that defends the social value of knowledge, we believe that there is a broad framework of opportunities for there to be transversality in higher education policy and that of STI to generate conditions that combat the structure of inequality. |

Contrary to the great hopes and achievements foreseen by the globalization movement in the world, today we are experiencing a reconfiguration of exclusion that has been intensified with the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 disease, and which has resulted in the exacerbation of the inequalities that are projected to the world as a fragmented space, in which, a few benefit from the concentration of wealth that leads large segments of the world's population to live on the margins of the so-called "civilization."

Durante por lo menos los últimos treinta años se proyectó la promesa de que el progreso científico y tecnológico permitiría garantizar el desarrollo económico y el bienestar social, y realizar los valores de la razón y el bienestar para todas y todos. En contra de los grandes anhelos y logros previstos por el movimiento globalizador en el mundo, hoy vivimos una reelaboración de la exclusión que se intensificó con la pandemia causada por la enfermedad COVID-19, y que ha derivado en la exacerbación de las desigualdades que proyectan al mundo como un espacio fragmentado en el que unos cuantos se benefician de la concentración de la riqueza que lleva a amplios segmentos de la población del mundo a vivir en los márgenes de la llamada “civilización”. Es el caso del acceso a la Educación Superior en México, pero también de su permanencia y relación con la desigualdad. Particularmente, interesa revalorar las relaciones entre Educación Superior -específicamente la formación profesional en las universidades públicas- la Ciencia, la Tecnología y la Innovación (CTI) y su participación en este proceso, a la luz de perspectivas teóricas que reconocen en el sistema capitalista el principal límite a una transformación real en la estructura socioeconómica actual, más aún en tiempos de COVID-19. Desde una visión normativa que defiende el valor social del conocimiento, creemos que existe un amplio marco de oportunidades para que haya transversalidad en la política de Educación Superior y la de CTI para generar condiciones que combatan la estructura de la desigualdad. Há pelo menos trinta anos se projeta a promessa de que o progresso científico e tecnológico garantirá o desenvolvimento econômico e o bem-estar social, realizando os valores da razão e do bem-estar para todos. Ao contrário das grandes aspirações e conquistas previstas pelo movimento de globalização no mundo, vivemos hoje um retrabalho da exclusão que se intensificou com a pandemia provocada pela doença COVID-19 e que tem levado ao agravamento das desigualdades que se projetam ao mundo como um espaço fragmentado no qual poucos se beneficiam da concentração de riquezas que leva grandes segmentos da população mundial a viver à margem da chamada “civilização”. É o caso do acesso ao ensino superior no México, mas também de sua permanência e relação com a desigualdade. Em particular, é interessante reavaliar as relações entre o ensino superior - nomeadamente a formação profissional nas universidades públicas - ciência, tecnologia e inovação (CTI) e a sua participação neste processo, à luz de perspectivas teóricas que reconhecem o sistema capitalista como principal limite a uma verdadeira transformação na atual estrutura socioeconômica, ainda mais na época da COVID-19. A partir de uma visão normativa que defende o valor social do conhecimento, acreditamos que existe um amplo quadro de oportunidades para que haja transversalidade na política de ensino superior e de CTI para gerar condições de combate à estrutura da desigualdade.
