    Affectivity in the implementation of child welfare policies
    (Revista Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, 2022-01) Garcia-Meneses, Javiera; Chanez-Cortés, Iván; Fardella-Cisternas, Carla; Corvalán-Navia, Alejandra
    Chile is an emblematic case in the implementation of a neoliberal child welfare policy. This policy is now almost entirely undertaken by private organizations, financed based on their achievement of standardized performance indicators. Scientific literature suggests that these indicators govern workers’ rationality. However, international studies indicate that the effect of indicators is not just rational but also affective. From a textual-affective analysis of 14 interviews and 2 workshops conducted with 5 female workers and 1 male worker from different partner organizations within the Chilean National Service for Minors, participants reported that this management model consumes and mechanizes the work carried out by these professionals. However, it is affectivity that makes resistance possible. © 2021 Universidad de Jaen. All rights reserved.

    Research Production Administrators and Academic Governance: Analysis of an Identity Conflict
    (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, 2023) Fardella-Cisternas, Carla; Espinosa-Cristia, Juan-Felipe; Garrido-Wainer, Juan-Manuel
    The managerial orientation of the scientific production modes in the Chilean university has given unprecedented power to the administrative staff. This part of the university staff is nowadays critical both for the implementation of public policies in higher education and science, as well as for the development of new institutional strategies and processes of university governance. From the perspective of social studies about employment, this article aims to understand the construction of the labor identity of male and female workers who work in scientific management positions in universities. The discourse analysis of 40 face-to-face interviews allowed us to recognize three types of identity narratives: as a subaltern identity “in the shadow of the researchers”, as a rearranged identity where academics “do their crazy things, then I make them up”, and finally as a negotiated identity where “one is willing to compromise one thing for another”, where there is a search for identity consensus integrating traditional values of both university and private entrepreneurship. The authors conclude that identity and the legitimization of the administrative role of scientific activity are key dimensions in the performance of the work and for the development of academic governance. © 2023 Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.

    University transformation and quantification devices
    (Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas), 2017) Fardella-Cisternas, Carla; Sisto Campos, Vicente; Jiménez Vargas, Felipe
    In Chile, higher education policies have required universities to adopt management tools related to the monitoring and quantification of academic work. Accordingly, this paper presents the results of a documentary study of 95 official documents concerning academic work (Regulations, Scholarship and Grant Application Guidelines and Accreditation Application Forms) in order to understand the regulations pertaining to academic work. Discourse analysis was used to determine how these documents are used in the university environment to regulate and transform the academic work. The present study shows that management tools adopted characterize the academic work through actions such as: establish hierarchies among the multiple tasks of a faculty member and among faculty members using criteria that have not been discussed by the academic community; objectify work processes and reach consensus over them, disregarding current disputes and disagreements; omit the context of academic production creating an image of work as an individual process; and finally urge the establishment of individualizing and competitive work relationships. © 2017, PUC de Campinas.
