Synopsis "Tendencias recientes de los posgrados en América Latina"
El posgrado se ha vuelto en el actual escenario internacional una prioridad para los gobiernos y los sectores productivos nacionales en términos de su contribución a la competitividad internacional y al desarrollo nacional. Tanto los gobiernos como los sectores de la producción demandan a las universidades una formación de recursos humanos altamente calificados así como también una producción científica y tecnológica de calidad que motiva un escenario de debate y reconfiguración de las políticas de posgrado. En este libro se analizan las tendencias recientes de los posgrados en América Latina, su desarrollo y sus principales características desde una perspectiva que considera, entre otros aspectos, las tradiciones educativas nacionales, los procesos sociales y políticos y las influencias internacionales que crecientemente cobran mayor importancia sobre los sistemas nacionales de educación superior. [Description in English] Recent trends in postgraduate courses in Latin America In the current international scenario, postgraduate courses have become a priority for both governments and national productive sectors in terms of their contribution towards international competitiveness and domestic development. Governments and manufacturing sectors alike now require universities to produce highly qualified human resources, as well as scientific output and quality technology, which is giving rise to a climate of debate and rethinking on postgraduate policies. This book analyzes recent trends in postgraduate courses in Latin America, their development and their main features from a perspective that, among other aspects, encompasses national educational traditions, social and political processes and international influences, which have increasing influence over national higher education systems. Mabel Dávila holds a Master's Degree in Social Sciences with a mention in Education from the Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences (FLACSO - Argentina). A researcher as well as undergraduate and postgraduate professor at several Argentine and international universities, she is a member of the Educational Studies Center (Centro de Altos Estudios en Educación) at the Inter-American Open University (UAI). The author acts as a consultant on educational policies for various national and international bodies and has written a number of publications on higher education in Argentina and Latin America.
