On the contributions of Raymond Williams to the study of public policies in education and employment
Abstract
This article focuses on the implementation of two public policies in recent Argentine history: the Adult Educational Reactivation Campaign for Reconstruction developed between 1973 and 1975, and the Better Work for Youth Program created in 2008. The analysis approaches the usual concepts in Political Science, articulating four categories of Raymond Williams: hegemonic processes, structures of feelings, residual elements, emerging elements.As a conclusive core, we sustain thet Williams’ contributions help to unravel the dynamics of recontextualization of policies, between the definitions of the spheres of the State, government interventions and the social senses that subjects imprint upon normative prescriptions based on their links with the institutions, the conceptions of the world, and how they are lived and experienced.
