El diploma europeu
Units o dividits per la diversitat?
Resum
El 2024, la Comissió Europea va anunciar el darrer avenç de l'Espai Europeu de l'Educació: el Títol europeu. L'objectiu és crear un nou tipus de titulació que serà reconeguda automàticament a tota la UE. Aquest projecte respon a diverses tendències que s'observen actualment. Per exemple, la consolidació de l’economia del coneixement; la necessitat d’assolir l’autonomia estratègica; i la urgència de combatre les creixents desigualtats socials, que contribueixen a crear societats polaritzades.
Analitzar el Títol europeu des d'una perspectiva sociològica posa en evidència la seva naturalesa paradoxal. El Títol busca ser inclusiu i fomentar la identitat europea, però, és intrínsecament exclusiu. Això és degut a dos dels requisits del programa: el multilingüisme i la mobilitat internacional. Aquest article mostrarà com, si bé aquests elements poden beneficiar els estudiants, també poden reproduir dinàmiques discriminatòries. S'atendrà a la comprensió de com l'origen social pot afectar l'aprenentatge de llengües i la possibilitat de fer mobilitats internacionals.
Paraules clau
Inclusió, Igualtat d'oportunitats, Accés, Títol Europeu, Educació superior, Educació transnacionalReferències
