RIBEIRO, Marcelo Afonso. The course of career as a theoretical and practical concept and the dialectical proposal of a psychosocial career. Cad. psicol. soc. trab. [online]. 2009, vol.12, n.2, pp. 203-216. ISSN 1516-3717.

The career is a theoretical and practical construct formed by two interconnected dimensions (administrative and psychosocial), which emerged at the beginning of the twentieth century and has been studied by the sciences of management and by the sciences of labour. It is traditionally linked to enterprises and is defined, respectively, as organizational career or vocational development, otherwise it is also postulated as non-career all forms of construction of the path through the work that not fit at this model. The world of work has become more flexible, heterogeneous and complex at the end of the twentieth century, which made the career suffer changes in its structure, design and development, leading to fragmentation of the bureaucratic career and its expansion beyond the boundaries of the enterprises, what has impacted the world of work as a whole. This theoretical article aimed to examine and try to understand what has been defined as career since his appearance and assess its future prospects. As a result, it was taken over the trajectory of the career as a theoretical and practical construct and analyzed the main ways of understanding and structuring career that has already been developed. Finally, it was proposed a concept of career based in the dialectics, giving rise to the concept of psychosocial career
