Evolución histórica del proceso de orientación profesional y su impacto en Cuba

Abstract

Professional guidance is a process that has accompanied man since time immemorial, keeping a remarkable relationship with the social changes that society has undergone in its evolution and responding directly to the role of work and the perception of man about the various professions. It is in this sense that in this research we intend to analyze the historical evolution of this process and its impact on Cuba, that will provide us with a coherent analysis of the background of this activity in the american continent and specifically in our country. Although as a result of the colonial characteristics through which the continent passed, it has been favored that these aspects were unjustly underestimated. So for a correct study of the process it is necessary to use methods such as the historical-logical that us allow to visualize the stages through which you have traveled and the aspects that have been ignored by the circles of hegemonic power of sciences that have even ignored creation in Cuba in the year 1855, of the General Preparatory School. In addition to the reference to the issue that Jose Marti makes in this regard as his interventions in 1887 on the nascent schools of arts and crafts in several Latin American nations.
