OCAMPO-TALERO, ANGÉLICA MARÍA; MENDEZ-PARIS, SARA  y  PAVAJEAU-DELGADO, CAROL. Subjectivities as Centers of Citizen Formation. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2008, vol.7, n.3, pp.837-852. ISSN 1657-9267.

The article presents academic reflections resulting from the teaching work of the authors with students of the Psychology career at the Javeriana University. Beginning from Latinamerica's sociopolitical reality, it is pointed out that complex views of citizenship are needed that permit the confrontation of the region's crises, particularly in Colombia, from the educational scenarios. Formative implications of that view for the professional work of Psychologists are reviewed, proposing subject and subjectivity as the heart of formative practices. Finally, some significant challenges to the Psychologists' task in the field of civic formation in educational contexts are outlined.
