Join Dr. Matias Flores, Chair of the GradSN, for a public seminar on his dissertation Community Engagement in Chile: A New Generation, Conditioned Legitimacy and Academic Capitalism. Dr. Matias Flores' dissertation explores how a new generation of engaged scholars in Chile navigate a shifting socio-political landscape shaped by recent student movements, constitutional reform efforts, and a national mandate for community engagement accreditation by 2025. Through ethnographic methods and interviews with 52 scholars, the study reveals how these academics balance aspirations for systemic change with the pressures of academic capitalism and institutional legitimacy.
