VARONA-DOMINGUEZ, Freddy. Higher Education and the Human Condition Category: For an Integrative Vision. Educare [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.1, pp.451-469. ISSN 1409-4258.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/ree.25-1.24.

The central theme of this essay is the need to deploy an integrative vision in higher education. The starting point is the requirement of scientific-technological development that professionals be trained with a vision that integrates knowledge, which contradicts the view that reduces and divides and still prevails in higher education. The conceptual base is complex thinking and the human condition category. Among the ideas developed are the value of the human condition category to deploy the integrative vision in higher education, the fight against the way of conceiving higher education as a business, and the importance of the affective dimension in higher education. The objective is to argue some manifestations of fragmentary and reductionist thought in higher education. One of the conclusions is that the integrative vision in higher education prevents professional training from being overvalued and is powerful to overcome extreme rationalism and open up to affectivity. Among the conclusions is that higher education’s integrative vision prevents professional training from being overvalued and is powerful in overcoming extreme rationalism and opening up to affectivity.
