Tomás Moulian: An expert on my field
On my field, I admire people that mean a contribution for the sociology. In Latin America, some sociologists have done contributions in the study of the continent's reality, for example, the sociologists of the "Dependency Theory". But, in this post Im going to write about Tomás Moulian, a chilean sociologist, because I think that is important recover his work; in Chile don't have sociologists recognized to the level University of Sao Paulo or National Autonomous University of Mexico, the sociological production in our country is very lacking, so Tomás Moulian is an exception and represent an exponent of the chilean, critical and marxist thinking .
The Moulian's work is about economic-social structure, stratification and social problems. His books more prominents are "El consumo me consume", "Chile actual: anatomía de un mito", "La forja de ilusiones: El sistema de partidos", "Socialismo del siglo XXI: la quinta vía", "En la brecha. Derechos Humanos, críticas y alternativas". He worked in FLACSO, an important organization for Latin America and the Caribbean, dedicated to research, teaching and spreading of social sciences. Also, he was the rector of the ARCIS University. His production is very important for me, because I think that allow understand the social problems, especially the inequality and the consequences.
