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.
