Sobre rosas y reguetón. La necesidad de fomentar el pensamiento crítico en las aulas universitarias

Abstract

The author of the paper presents some reflections about the need to promote the critical thinking in UNAE students, so that they can perceive some micromachisms which exist in the actual society and assume a personal attitude in the face of the symbolic gender violence that hides behind them. For this, two key elements that guide the report are taken: the first is the historical origin of the custom of giving roses to women on March 8. The second, the description of an activity developed in the subject “Teaching and Learning of Social Environment II”, consisting of analyzing the lyrics of a reggaeton song and reflecting on it.
