ResumenLa desnormativización de la vida social en la época contemporánea está dejando a nuestras juventudes con un problema de crisis de sentido. El repliegue de las instituciones tradicionales que otorgaban significación implica una progresiva individualización de los proyectos de vida, que se manifiesta como un sentimiento de permanente búsqueda. Las juventudes viven en una situación de “intemperie moral”, en donde ya nadie les garantiza que sus comportamientos estén en lo correcto en un sentido claro y único. Frente a ello, una solución posible corresponde a la emergencia de una configuración valórica en torno a la noción de autocuidado. Esta involucra la formación de una cautela reflexiva, que permite la protección de la propia subjetividad en un mundo donde las normas están relativizadas, evitando consecuencias no deseadas y sorteando, provisoriamente, el problema de la demanda por sentido. Para analizar adecuadamente este fenómeno, se recurrió a una estrategia metodológica cualitativa, a partir de la técnica del grupo de discusión. Cabe señalar, por último, que el presente artículo fue realizado en el marco de una tesis de pregrado becada por el proyecto FONDECYT Nº 1070105: “Cultura juvenil y producción valórica en estudiantes de educación secundaria y de educación superior”.Palabras clave: Crisis Normativa, Proyecto De Vida, AutocuidadoAbstractThe tendency to having a lack of regulations of social life in contemporary times is leaving our young people with a problem of sense crisis. The retreat of the traditional institutions that gave meaning implies a progressive individualization of life projects, which is shown as a feeling of permanent search. Youngsters live in a situation of “moral neglect”, where nobody is able to guarantee that their behavior is correct in a clear and unique sense. In this respect, a possible solution corresponds to the emergence of a value configuration around the notion of self- care. This involves the formation of a cautious reflection, which allows the protection of their own subjectivity in a world where the rules are relativized, avoiding unintended consequences and to avoid, temporarily, the problem of demand of meaning. To properly analyze this phenomenon, a qualitative methodological strategy was used, based on the group discussion technique. It should be noticed, finally, that this article was conducted as part of an undergraduate thesis scholarship from the FONDECYT project No. 1070105: “Youth culture and values production in students of secondary and higher education.”

The emergence and formation of British working-class youth cultures in the 1960s were characterized by an ambivalent relationship between British identity, global culture and the formation of a multicultural society in the post-war decades. While national and local newspapers mostly reported on racial tensions and racially-motivated violence, culminating in the Notting Hill riots of 1958, the relationship between London's white working-class youth and teenagers with migration backgrounds was also shaped by a reciprocal, direct and indirect, personal and cultural exchange based on social interaction and local conditions. Starting from the Notting Hill Riots 1958, the article reconstructs places and cultural spheres of interaction between white working-class youth and teenagers from Caribbean communities in London in the 1960s. Following debates and discussions on race relations and the participation of black youth in the social life of London in the 1960s, the article shows that British working-class youth culture was affected in various ways by the processes of migration. By dealing with the multicultural dimension of the post-war metropolis, white working-class teenagers negotiated socio-economic as well as political changes, contributing in the process to an emergent, new image of post-imperial Britain.

Una de las formas de agrupación dentro de los centros de altos estudios, para la gestión de los recursos humanos, que posibiliten el trabajo estratégico, sistémico, humano y eficiente lo constituyen las Facultades Universitarias. El análisis incursiona en algunas reflexiones teóricas sobre la gerencia universitaria por facultades en la actualidad, retomando publicaciones especializadas en dirección empresarial y educativa; así como la experiencia de las autoras en este desempeño. Concluye que la dirección universitaria tiene un valor metodológico significativo al establecer que ésta solo tiene sentido si se relaciona íntimamente y responde al objeto de estudio de la pedagogía, es decir al proceso de formación integral de las personas. Palabras Clave: Recursos Humanos, Gerencia Universitaria, Pedagogía, Formación Integral. ABSTRACT University Faculties constitute one of the ways of grouping within higher education centers for the management of human resources to make strategic, systemic, human and efficient work possible. This analysis involves some theoretical thoughts on university management held by faculties, retaking specialized publications in business and educational management, as well as the experience of more than four decades of the author of this paper. The analysis concludes that university direction has a significant methodological value and it establishes that it makes sense if it is closely related to the object if study of pedagogy, that is, to the people´s integral formation process.

El artículo aborda los problemas de equidad e inclusión en la educación superior en Chile desde una perspectiva que se sitúa más próxima al campo de la sociología de la Educación. Desde allí la perspectiva teórica que sirve de marco orientador del estudio se plantea la posibilidad de comprensión de los fenómenos sociales desde las creencias y acciones de los sujetos. También se asume que el logro de la justicia en una sociedad determinada y en la educación en particular, trasciende a la distribución equitativa de recursos y requiere que los actores educativos, caracterizados por una mayor diversidad, se reconozcan mutuamente unos a otros como lo plantean los teóricos del reconocimiento (Honneth, 2010).Palabras clave: Equidad, inclusión, educación superior, creencias, reconocimiento.Diversidade Cultural e Equidade em Faculdades privadas com Projeto de InclusãoO artigo aborda os problemas de Equidade e Inclusão no ensino superior no Chile desde uma perspectiva que se situa mais próxima ao campo da sociologia da Educação. A partir daí, a perspectiva teórica que serve de marco orientador do estudo, manifesta a possibilidade de compreensão dos fenômenos sociais, desde as crenças e ações dos sujeitos. Também se entende que o logro da justiça numa sociedade determinada e na educação em particular, transcende a distribuição equitativa de recursos e requer que os atores educacionais, caracterizados por uma maior diversidade, reconheçam-se mutuamente uns aos outros como expressam os teóricos do reconhecimento (Honneth, 2010).Palavras-chave: Equidade, Inclusão, ensino superior, crenças, reconhecimento.Cultural diversity and equity in private universities withinclusion projectThe article discusses the issues of equity and inclusion in higher educationin Chile from a perspective closest to the field of sociology of education.Based on that, the theoretical perspective that serves as a guiding frameworkof the study provides the possibility of understanding social phenomenafrom individual beliefs and actions. It is also assumed that the achievementof justice in a given society and in education in particular transcends theequitable distribution of resources. It requires that educational actors,characterized as more diverse, are mutually recognized, as it is suggestedby recognition theorists (Honneth, 2010).Keywords: Equity, inclusion, higher education, beliefs, recognition.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to discuss the challenges and obstacles encountered in the implementation of a mentoring program for Master of Business Administration (MBA) students at the University of South Australia (UniSA) Business School. The paper starts with an exploration into the need for a mentoring program, the trial and subsequent four years of implementation. The paper also explores the network model of mentoring and the reasons why this, rather than a more traditional model, was chosen for the program’s implementation. Design/methodology/approach – This exploratory case study uses data from over 600 students and their alumni mentors over a five-year period to evaluate and improve the program as well as cultivating a critical community of adult learners. Findings – Feedback from students indicates that the mentoring program is regarded by most as a value-added feature of their early learning as it offers support, if and when it is required, from those who have been there before. Research limitations/implications – Results are limited to one institution. However, as research into mentoring for higher education students is thin on the ground, this study contributes to our understanding of the positive impacts of mentoring on student success. Practical implications – This paper emphasizes the importance of business leaders giving back to their alma mater through mentoring current MBA students. It shows how mentoring can support learning and management development. Originality/value – This is an original study which explores ways to increase the learning of higher education students for positive social outcomes.

This article focuses on the educational efforts of Syed Firoz Ashraf in the East Jogeshwari area of Mumbai and places his work in the context of the increasing communalisation of social life and education in a poor working class suburb in Mumbai city. Muslim community has been ghettoised in the metropolis to specific areas especially since the riots of 1992-93, increasing their vulnerability. For more than twenty years ‘Uncle’, as he is affectionately called, has been running after-school classes for children from the working class neighbourhoods of Jogeshwari and Juhu Lane. He has worked within the system to enhance opportunities for higher education for children, and to end the humiliation and indignity associated with educational failure. As Uncle says, there is hope as more and more children break out of the confines of their locality and step out into the world through higher education.

Data supported the assumption that persons tend to view themselves as moderately risky vis-a-vis their peers. Ss tended to ascribe positions to their peers that were equal to or more cautious than their own and participation in group discussion enhanced the probability of this relative judgment.

The purpose of this study is to suggest priorities for reorienting traditional institutions of higher education (IHE) toward online teaching and learning beyond the COVID-19 experience. This research applied the qualitative research method. Data collection sources included both a systematic literature review relating to how COVID-19 informed online distance learning across the globe and an analysis of circulars germane to the pandemic that were issued by the Ministry of Education (MOE) in Saudi Arabia and by Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University (PSAU). Guided by those two types of data, that is, review of the literature in general and the MOE and PSAU circulars in particular, and also illuminated by their own experiences of online teaching during the lockdown, the researchers were able to put forward those priorities. For the systematic review of the literature, five steps were performed: (1) identifying search terms and developing and applying a search strategy; (2) screening the obtained research papers, removing duplicates and papers outside the focal point, and establishing inclusion/exclusion criteria; (3) assessing the research papers against the inclusion/exclusion criteria; (4) data extraction; and (5) data synthesis. Although this article does not suggest traditional IHE should go entirely digital, it highlights the need for IHE to ensure access to online learning content, develop more partnerships with community, develop online self-study skills, get students to shift from passive to active learning, and a need to reconsider current e-assessment. Additionally, the study emphasizes the need to provide additional support for faculty members, how university buildings should be gradually reopened, controlling factors influencing online learning outcomes, and addressing the issue of dropouts in IHE. Finally, the study underlines the need to add further emphasis to the importance of integrating blended learning in the university curriculum and navigating toward developing global distance learning programs.
