De la queja al conflicto o a la responsabilidad

En este artículo se exponen los planteamientos de Annie Marquier (1998) respecto a dos paradigmas alternativos para percibir la realidad: el primero es el de la víctima, que constituye un filtro perceptivo muy generalizado a nivel planetario y a través del cual responsabilizamos a factores externos de lo que nos ocurre. Lo contrapone al principio de la responsabilidad que consiste en asumir la responsabilidad por nuestra propia manera de percibir la realidad. Asentado en estos postulados se presenta una propuesta metodológica para abordar el tema en talleres con estudiantes que cursan la carrera de Gestión de Recurso Humanos.(UNA). Abstract This article presents Annie Marquier’s approach of two alternative paradigms of perceiving reality: the victim’s, which constitutes a highly generalized perceptive filter through which we blame external factors for what happens to us. She opposes it to the responsibility principle which consists in assuming our responsibility for the way in which we perceive reality. Based on this assumptions a methodological proposal for working this issue with students of Human Resources Management (UNA) is presented.

GENERATIVE LEADERSHIP

This article presents the results of a research project that studied leadership from the standpoint of the personal conceptions that influence the behavior of local government leaders, as well as those conceptions desired to generate the social transformation processes required in communities. Qualitative methodology was used. Categories of analysis were created based on Pearson’s (1992) model of psychological archetypes. A relevant finding was the limited advance shown by interviewees regarding self-knowledge and a fragmented vision between the observer and the observee, which hinders their ability to take on the challenges that current reality demands from them.

Learning Process in Teaching and Bio-pedagogical Knowledge Building

Bio-pedagogy is built on praxis, i.e. the interrelationship between reflection and innovative action where these two merge in the construction of senses to generate knowledge. Then, the following question arises: How is teaching understood? How can practice be renovated from the action-reflection-action in a recurring manner and in life itself? A way to search for those answers is the systematization of experiences –a modality of qualitative research. It promotes the transformation of a common practice, based on knowledge building by holistic approaches to the educational process complexity. The systematization of bio-pedagogical experiences involves self-organization, joy, uncertainty and passion; it respects freedom and autonomy, and generates relational spaces, which promote creative processes in learning.
