Las subjetividades como centro de la formación ciudadana. (Spanish)

Subjectivities as Centers of Citizen Formation. (English)

The article presents academic reflections resulting from the teaching work of the authors with students of the Psychology career at the Javeriana University. Beginning from Latin America's sociopolitical reality, it is pointed out that complex views of citizenship are needed that permit the confrontation of the region's crises, particularly in Colombia, from the educational scenarios. Formative implications of that view for the professional work of Psychologists are reviewed, proposing subject and subjectivity as the heart of formative practices. Finally, some significant challenges to the Psychologists' task in the field of civic formation in educational contexts are outlined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El artículo presenta reflexiones académicas fruto del trabajo docente de las autoras con estudiantes de la Carrera de Psicología de la Pontifica Universidad Javeriana. Se señala cómo, a partir de la realidad sociopolítica de América Latina, son necesarias miradas complejas sobre la ciudadanía, que, desde los escenarios educativos, permitan hacerle frente a las crisis de la región en general, y de Colombia en particular. Se presentan algunas implicaciones formativas que tiene dicha mirada para el trabajo profesional de psicólogas y psicólogos, proponiendo al sujeto y a la subjetividad como el corazón de las prácticas formativas. Finalmente, se esbozan algunos retos significativos para el quehacer psicológico en el campo de la formación ciudadana en contextos educativos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
