Gender and interculturality: an approach from the syllabus of socio-economic reality, School of Computer

Abstract

The present study was aimed to provide background to integrate gender criteria and interculturalism in the department of socioeconomic reality, so that, regardless of the specific context for which it was conceived its syllabus base, was achieved exposing ideas whose general character, allowed reasonably to fulfill the new demands of higher education, in terms of the integration of knowledges, contexts and cultures in curriculum design. For this purpose, a literature review was conducted, as part of an analytic-synthetic process supplemented with historical and logical method, of texts of some exponents of gender approach, interculturalism, construction of otherness, indigenous justice, redistribution and cultural recognition, among others; in order to develop a writing which, without losing sight of scientific rigor, enabled a pragmatic incorporation of contents and criteria of ancestral knowledges, contexts and cultures, in the academic discussion tender from the subject of socioeconomic reality. The results correspond to perspectives and contents that enrich the academic debate, from positions that deviate from the traditional Europeanized, hegemonic, ethnocentric or androcentric optics, and looked back in analysis toward historically excluded groups; to construct reality from their original points of view, divers, progressives, ancients as well as relatively brand new in modern Western societies. Currently the proposed debate is significant, considering that the political agenda of several Latin American countries has come from these ideas, in the way to go about building more inclusive and equitable societies.
