SAAVEDRA, Luísa. Vocational psychology and critical feminism: from the past to the future. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2013, vol.14, n.1, pp.7-17. ISSN 1984-7270.

Mainstream vocational theory was characterized, during some decades, by a focus on middle-class white men and individual characteristics and was guided by positivist assumptions. At the same time, career counseling was mainly focused on intrapsychic issues and individual change. Globalization and the post-modern movement, with their criticism to science, have considerably shaped changes to those previous conceptualizations. Focusing mainly on gender issues and feminism, the objective of this article was, by analyzing the more or less recent past of vocational psychology and highlighting the asymmetry that still exist in Portugal and Brazil, to draw some possible future paths, at the theoretical, research and practical levels, as based on critical psychology and feminism.

Palavras-chave : occupational choice; women; discourse analysis; cultural diversity.
