Abstract

ROJAS, Cristian Alberto  and  CASTELLANOS, Juan Manuel. Ten years after: academic and professional itineraries of public school graduates in Manizales, ColombiaDez anos depois: Itinerários escolares e de trabalho de alunos egressos de uma escola pública em Manizales, Colombia. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2014, vol.12, n.1, pp.277-290. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.12116072413.

In this technological and scientific research article the academic and professional insertion strategies of a cohort of urban public school graduates in the city of Manizales (Colombia) are described. To this effect the academic and professional trajectories of a sample consisting of 42 graduates are compared, for the years 2000-2002. Taken into account are the combinatory and alternating modes in which interests, opportunities, formative experiences, temporary and permanent jobs occur. An analytical scheme for trajectories of a young generation under contemporary capitalism conditions is proposed. In the end, this generation's different modes of insertion under changing job conditions are analysed, in their quest not to become irrelevant.

Keywords : education; social capital; academic itineraries; academic capital; job insertion; youth.
