In times of globalization and change: the citizenship identification in the information society

The transformations promoted by the globalization process, encompassed all segments constituting a society, mainly the current society driven by the information search and the construction of knowledge, both considered as necessary resources to the individuals for their proper professional establishment and social interaction. Lack of qualification and disinformation, as well as lack of continuity in the professional education, constitute strong arguments to determine the social and professional exclusion of the individuals. From this perspective, changes in professional behavior are observed, as well as the establishment of professional profiles compatible with the Information Society. Quite perceptible are the influences that the globalization exerts on the main actors of this scene, the human beings, and the consequences of it on them, while in their incessant search for the full exercise of citizenship.
