Globalization in postmodernity: criticism and contributions for nursing

Abstract

The target of this critical reflection was the approach of globalization, consumption and identity described by Zygmunt Bauman, establishing links with work, education and formation in nursing. The results and discussion were segmented into three axes. The first contemplates how globalization is associated with labor flexibilization, merchandization of citizenship, rights and health. The second axis reflects within the postmodern itinerary the education and formation of nurses, with emphasis for the concepts of permanent education / politics and the role of the teacher. The third axis consumes momentarily assertions, to approach the obstacles that globalized teaching lifts as "distance learning." In vain, would be to dissociate global postmodern phenomena from the conjuncture faced by the profession. It is corroborated for the establishment of a theoretical-socio-identity thinking since the nursing formation.
