JACINTO, Claudia. La formación para el trabajo en la escuela secundaria como reflexión crítica y como recurso. Propuesta educativa (Online) [online]. 2013, n.40, pp.48-63. ISSN 1995-7785.

This article is based on a long historical debate that has developed since the very moment of configuration of general secondary school (ESG): What is its role in social reproduction and in the formation of future workers? In which ways has done it historically? How does it today? And another question is if it should do it and how. An important axis of the current debates about the knowledge of work has to do with conceptions of "knowledge" as integration of different kinds of knowledge, and how they are learned. These discussions not only come from cognitive psychology and the sociology of education, but also from sociology itself. Given the social inequality in terms of resources and opportunities, the trajectories are developed versus broader or narrower biographical options. The individual's ability to manage their own transition to adulthood depends primarily on social and cultural capital, the support received by his family and the opportunities or constraints related to education, gender, and ethnic or social origin. For those with fewer opportunities, "constellations of disadvantage" are configured, which are understood as the complex relationships between socioeconomic, institutional and individual factors.
