The dilemma of the awareness of professionals in Social Sciences in Brazil: a bibliographic analysis on the stumbling blocks, impasses and coping strategies of the phenomenon in current society

Abstract

In this work, we develop through the bibliographic reference, a discussion about the mishaps suffered by professionals of the social sciences, in Brazil, regarding their performance and professional location. The difficulties come, above all, from a devaluation of the social scientist himself in front of a society that favors areas of knowledge that, in theory, have a financial return and a range of professional opportunities that the social scientist, at first, does not envision. With this, arises the phenomenon of the depreciation of this area of knowledge in view of a shallow and poorly developed perspective theoretically. Thus, we expose in this article the dilemmas faced by these professionals and how we can reverse this crisis of awareness about what is and what makes a social sciences professional, beyond the performance of higher education.
