Social Management, Acceleration and Capital Logic during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Experiences in the Colombian Context

Journal Title: RHS-Revista Humanismo y Sociedad - Year 2024, Vol 12, Issue 1

Abstract

This work analyzes the role of social management in the context of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity, which is typical of the current era, but is, at the same time, a consequence of the prevailing economic model. Likewise, it analyzes the effects derived from the COVID-19 pandemic on a national scale. It is based on an integrative conceptual proposal of social management and reviews its foundations in order to assess its capacity to respond to the socio-institutional challenges that the pandemic had posed to social managers during the period of the health emergency. To achieve the purpose, a literature review was conducted with documents obtained from academic databases and institutional repositories of multilateral organizations. The theoretical corpus of the research was made up of documents related to social management, social acceleration and capital logic. The most important findings reveal the need to consider social management not only as an management model linked to the guarantee, access and promotion of fundamental rights, but as a multidisciplinary field of knowledge. This field has been updated not only to consider epistemological aspects but also to give value to the context, via adaptation and adjustment of this institutional mechanism.
