NOBILE, Mariana. Pleasures and commitment in secondary school teacher work: transformation of the other and personal recognition. Trab. soc. [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.99-110. ISSN 1514-6871.
This article analyses the conditions under which teachers work takes place in a set of schools in the city of Buenos Aires known as "Reentry Secondary School", which were created to cater young people in age to attend secondary school but were not doing it. The purpose is to highlight those elements that encourage the development of a strong commitment among the teaching staff. The construction of the student as "vulnerable" required from the teachers a special effort to grant the schooling of this youngsters, which is possible through certain "emotional labor" that allows them to cope with their work with patience until they see the expected results in their students. The possibility to maintain their commitment over time is due to the high levels of gratification, deriving of seeing their work embodied in the transformation experienced by these young students. Some final reflections on the implications of this kind of commitment and the question about the possibility of replicating such experiences in other institutions are presented.
