INTERVENCIÓN SOCIAL Y LA CONSTRUCCIÓN EPISTEMOLÓGICA DE LA CIUDADANÍA EN CHILE

Abstract

This article aims to offer a discussion about social interventions and their potential contribution to the construction of citizenship. Drawing upon the Chilean case, the idea of citizenship is analysed in this paper as a concept which can be observed from diverse epistemological perspectives. Practical implications underlying such epistemological approaches are examined considering the organisational and political contexts where Chilean social workers conduct their interventions nowadays.
