Tell us about an expert/person in your field that you admire.

 In today's blog I will highlight Karl Marx who was born on May 5, 1818, among his best-known works is The Communist and Capital Manifesto, he died on March 14, 1883, among his posthumous recognitions is the survey carried out by the BBC in 1999, where he was chosen as the greatest thinker of the Millennium.

Karl Marx can be considered a philosopher, historian and sociologist. I will specify more on his role and his contribution to the discipline he studied, sociology. I admire this author like many other classical sociologists, but precisely Marx for the importance of his writings and the analysis of the working class and the historical context in which it developed. The main contribution of Marx was in my opinion the creation of a political ideology expressed in the communist manifesto, where in that work he represented the working class and its revolutionary role within a society in crisis like the capitalist one. Regarding this crisis personally, I define it as social inequalities, the dehumanization of social relations and the environmental crisis, among others.

A Phot and Its Story

  Hello everyone in blog of the day I’m going post a photo significant for me, and I will explain why.  This photo, although it does not show part of my family, is important to me because it was a trip that we did together with my family, and it was very beautiful and significant because of the places we were able to visit. I am interested because we went to the south of Chile and my grandmother and uncle had always wanted to go to Pucón, therefore, for them it was very entertaining and beautiful to see such landscapes and escape a little from the city and its normality. The story behind the photo was that we climbed a Mapuche hill that was surrounded by Lake Calafquén, where we even met a Mapuche woman who sold typical food. On the ascent of that great hill a friend of the family guided us and explained the history of the place, it was a great experience.

"Tell us about a subject you enjoy studying"

  For all that I studied around this year, I think that the first semester was the one that I liked the most, especially the subject of social psychology. I enjoyed this theme mainly for its flexibility and because it approached social phenomena from a more group plan, even grouping social manifestations into feelings and emotions in common. In addition, he taught me methodologies and how to guide an investigation in a good way, which I consider very useful for the future, and I would also like to give a social psychology approach to my future work. . This is how everything I learned, I found reason in the way that participation in the student protests and the outbreak impacted me, this is how I learned to understand the reason for the origin of social movements, which lead to maintain or stop them, and the interpersonal relationships between participants. Before studying it, I liked the name of this one, since at that time I was between studying psychology or sociology and the m...
