My Future


In the future I will be sociologist and I will gain something of money. My dream of job is in the classroom, I would like to be a teacher and teach what I like it, the sociological theories and quantitatives methodologies. My life in the future would be simple, without luxuries and without basic needs, I would like to train a family and live with calm in a house in some place of Chile, maybe Chiloé, the place where I was born. I will have a small house, very pretty and nice house. In the future I would like to have money and, with it, travel for the world knowing beautiful places in all the continents, I like Greece, Carib, Egypt, Thailand and Brazil. In five years I would not be married and I would not have children, I would continue being bachelor. In five years I ill have a new life with responsibilities and money, already I would not depend of my parents. Still there are a lot of time to arrive to 2014 and many things can happen, only there is something sure, I will be Sociologist.

The best in your field


Pierre Bourdieu is the best sociologist. He is French and when he was young, he lived in a rural family. He is the best sociologist because their theories and the reality are very tied, Bourdieu sees from closely together the social events to speak about them. In their theory he explain that the people actions aren't results of the random and they actions aren't also a results of their subjectivity because he thinks that there are external factors to subject and they it determine.

For Bourdieu the history of the subjects is not special, is not particular, Boudieu believes that our life has common elements and common components, so my life and you life always is probable. Bourdieu believes that is possible to predict the life of one subject in the future, this is possible with his information's life and with his material conditions.

His publications are:
S
ociologie de l'Algérie (1956), La reproduction (1970),a distinction (La distinción) (1979), Homo Academicus (1984) and Capital cultural, escuela y espacio social (2003).

My dear career


When I was finishing the secundary my principal worry was my future and it was an important decision. So I thought for a long time about this decision, but my option was only one, the Sociology. Why? Because in my life always I'm ask questions about the reality, How? Why? Which are the reasons? For example, Why the people have to work a lot of time? Which is the sense of the life for us? The answers are difficult and I thought that with this degree I might answer it.

The sociologists are people very little known in the society because nobody need one sociologist for something in comparison with a doctor o lawyer for example, but their contribution is really important, the sociologist think about how it has a better society and the forms to do that, so they need (We need?) some things like the politics, and the politican people.

The information is the principal tool for one sociologist, the interviews and the surveys are the two most important tools to know something about the social reality, both needs methodologies and knowledge.
