Bio Data



My name is Diego Valenzuela, I´m 20 and I am a second-year student of sociology at the Universidad de Chile. I choose this career because I´m very interested in the phenomena that occur in the society and cause a change of behavior to the people. My topics of interest are the power, the gender, and the history.

The last year, one of my first investigation as a student of this career, was a historical research about gender in the “Hacienda” in Chile. Specifically, my research was about how the masculinity was expressed in the relation of the tenant and the “hacendado” through of the years, and how this relation ended expressed in the work relationships that we see today.

At the beginning of this year, I take an additional subject called “Identity, gender and social commitment in Catalan culture” this subject helps me to know of better way about the problems of the identity and gender, al this with a vision of a Catalan culture. Now I´m regularly assist to conversations and conferences about sociology in the faculty. This is helping me to understand the new problems of the office and have more tools to develop myself as a sociologist.

The problem with the Sociology

We live in a world that is in a constant change. Through of the history we could see how the wars, the poverty, the revolutions, the technology, and the own system, guide the way of humanity. Why the world changes an every moment? Why we live in a deeply inequality society for the most of people? Sociology seems to be a good way to respond these questions, since this is the scientific study of society, patterns of social relationships, social interaction and culture of everyday life. For this, through Sociology we can know the phenomena that occur in the society through history, to take better decisions at present. For example, in the problem of gender inequality at work, with a good sociology investigation we could have a better understanding of this problem.

For me, I like the cats because they are highly intelligent creatures; they are small and very cute, but also, if the cats don´t want your company (or do not want to be disturbed to sleep all day), they can be a little monster and they can inflict you more than a wound, but when they want, can be your best friend. I had a black cat called “Kuro” and he was very small and very adorable, but one day he escaped from the house and a car ran over him :( . About dogs, I really like them, because they seems happy when you want to caress them and they are very playful and extremely faithful. For this, when I see a dog in the street it makes me very sad and I try to caress him and give him something to eat. I have a dog called “Blanquita”. She is approximately 8 years old and we found her in the street whe...
