Abstract

The teacher research movement in Chile has, historically, been an expression of the profession's concerns with the ways in which schooling reproduces and produces the social order in the broader society. The work currently done by members of the union's Pedagogical Movement is described, showing the connections between the scope of problems researched and the conditions of teachers' work. Often, the problems addressed are complex enough to require action by diverse stakeholders working collaboratively; including alliances between the Union and other national and international organizations.
