My future job

 Hello everyone, today I am going to talk about my career and professional dreams and goals. I study political science and I have always wanted to be able to dedicate myself to academic work. Working in research and teaching are dreams that I have had for years, even before I studied political science. I feel that in this way I contribute to the creation of knowledge that tributes to the history of social movements that have paved the way for transformations in Chile and Latin America. 

Currently I work as a transcriber and I have occasionally participated in some research projects and I have had a great time. This work is generally office-based, although it is currently done at home. Field work in this sense is related to conducting interviews, focus groups or ethnographies with individuals or communities.

As an academic I could travel to different countries for congresses, lectures and talks on different topics of interest. In particular, I would like to develop on the relations between the State and social movements in Latin America: how social movements overflow the State and how the State receives social demands. Participating in congresses and seminars in Latin America is another of my dreams and goals. 

The salary does not interest me much, I think that as long as I can live and solve the vital needs of my family and me, I will be calm. I don't have big luxuries hahaha.
