Resumen
El liderazgo para la justicia social es un tema que ha cobrado relevancia en los espacios de diálogo vinculados a temas educativos, en muchos contextos alrededor del mundo y Costa Rica no es la excepción. El objetivo de este estudio es el análisis en relación con esta temática, así como el aporte de ideas para los educadores en formación y en ejercicio; igualmente, para las personas que dirigen el rumbo en materia de políticas educativas del país. Desde un enfoque cualitativo, se implementa el protocolo de entrevista de la Red Internacional de Desarrollo de Liderazgo (ISLDN), que surge como parte de las reflexiones en la Convención de la University Council for Educational Administration.
(UCEA)
en el 2008,
el cual está conformado por cinco preguntas. Los sujetos de
análisis son dos directivos escolares, concretamente del nivel
de preescolar público y de una unidad pedagógica privada.
Los resultados sugieren un estilo de liderazgo democrático
con algunas características de transformacional, centrados
en aspectos de la justicia social como reconocimiento y
capacidades de las personas. Además, se hallan coincidencias,
en ambos casos, con los aportes teóricos revisados basados en
las cuatro categorías de justicia social: económica, cultural,
asociativa y para el desarrollo.
Leadership for social justice is an issue that has gained relevance for professionals in education in many contexts around the world and Costa Rica is no exception. The objective of this study is the analysis around this theme, as well as the contribution of ideas both for practicing educators as well as those in training and for those who direct national educational policies. The interview protocol of the International Study of Leadership Development Network (ISLDN) and the Convention of the University Council for Educational Administration (UCEA) in the 2008 were used to interview two school administrators in a public preschool and a private multi-grade school. The results suggest a style of democratic and transformational leadership centered on aspects of social justice such as recognition and development of others’ capabilities. There were a number of similarities between the two cases related to four broad categories of social justice: economic, cultural, associative and developmental.
