Community, globalization and education: an essay about deconverting the social instance

Abstract

Taking some of the classical sociological theories produced between the 19th and the 20th centuries, the text starts with the questioning of the historical constitution of a construct named "lo social-estato-nacional". The current processes which evidence its "desconversión" are then analyzed. The key words of these processes are "community" and "globalization". With a basis on this theoretical premise, conclusions are drawn on some of the socio-educational realities of the present times.
