Critical Thinking in the Face of the Challenges of the 21st Century

Abstract

Critical thinking represents an inexorable aspect for the conscious reflection of academic work, but even if it is a matter of exercising thought outside of academia, it remains a sine qua non condition to seek the answers to all the situations that afflict or are part of the becoming of humanity, in the words of Rodríguez, (2021) “a large part of the task of critical thinking is to translate what happens to us into ideas and concepts, in order to create awareness from those experiences” (p. 15).
