• Human societies have always been closely connected through

the constant coming and going of people, goods, and ideas.
• Today, this connection between human populations is more
evident thanks to globalization.
• Due to improved means of transportation and communication,
the creation of trade agreements between countries, and
constant migration, divisions between communities, states, and
countries are becoming increasingly blurred. Despite this
worldwide connection, it is important to consider the problems,
ideas, and culture of our town.

 CITIES

One of the most important human

communities, cities, are social creations
that express the social nature of our
species. This is why cities serve as a
stage on which we build our culture and
feel that we belong to a diversity of
specific human groups.
 SENSE OF BELONGING 

• Refers to the perception people have

of being part of a group, to the extent
they consider it their own.
• It implies a relationship of respect and
recognition among the individuals of
the group. In this way, close
relationships of trust and mutual help
are created.
 TYPES OF BELONGING

There are different types of belonging, depending on the group you are
part of. For example, you are a student and classmate in your classroom,
a member of your family, and a citizen of your country. The biggest
group you belong to is humanity. Just like in the other groups, you play a
role in this global community.
 Your community is the closest social group
you belong to. You know its:

Needs

COMMUNITY Problems

Customs

Traditions
 When you actively participate in it by offering your
opinion, getting involved, and concerning yourself with
decision-making, you are contributing positively to
generating change.

STUDENTS WILL REFLECT ON THE CONCEPT OF IDENTITY FROM
DIFFERENT AREAS OF THEIR LIFE, PERSONALITY, AND SELF-

 In the first paragraph, recall the beginning of the previous session. If you reflected on the
big question, you can now answer the questions posed in this part of the text.

Slowly read the Understand

section on page 48.

In the second paragraph, refer to the sense of self as an observer who can become aware of
the thoughts and emotions that come, and who can step outside of the self to observe the
different areas of their personality and become aware of their mental and emotional states
and their own uniqueness, so they can develop their identity.

Go through the following

suggestions for each paragraph:

In the third paragraph, how the question about life and death, the valuation of the former
over the latter, and the search to extend life as long as possible because of an attachment to
our egotistic identity has led humanity to discoveries from techniques to generate and
preserve food to the most advanced technologies.

Will the insatiable quest for life

lead to death? What do you think?

through a SWOT analysis
 SELF-AWARENESS

Self-awareness means knowing what your abilities,

likes, dislikes, weaknesses, and needs are. Therefore,
it’s a very valuable tool for making decisions and
setting goals. If you know yourself better, then you
will know what you want to develop as a person, and
you will be able to put aside others’ expectations.
You will have clear personal aspirations.
 CAPABILITIES

To know yourself better, you must also recognize

your capabilities, the knowledge and ability of the activities
that you develop with ease. These could be considered talents.
For example, maybe one of your classmates is very good at
playing soccer but has trouble with music lessons. Similarly,
there are those who can play musical instruments with ease
but have to work harder to practice a sport.
 POTENTIAL

Having little ability to perform specific

activities does not mean that you lack the
necessary capability to carry them out. The
areas you can develop by putting a little more
effort into learning and understanding are
your potential.
 M U LTIPL E IN TE LL I G EN C ES  

• Multiple intelligences are cognitive competencies

present in each person, which, based on their level
of development, result in specific skills.

• The intelligences you possess influence your

capabilities and potential. In addition, you need to
understand your interests, in other words, your
tastes and preferences. For example, if you have
developed mathematical intelligence, you may
want to study some kind of engineering. If you’ve
developed kinesthetic-bodily intelligence, you
may want to study dance or specialize in a sport.
 HOWARD GARDNER

According to American psychologist

Howard Gardner, there are eight different
forms of intelligence that function in parallel
in all people. Each type of intelligence is
related to specific areas of the brain.

3. Do we really need as much as we think we do to be fulfilled?

Maslow’s theory of needs is not the only one. There are several
psychological and social views on the subject.

Douglas T. Kenrick, says that while self-actualization is interesting and

important, it isn’t an evolutionarily fundamental need.

“Among human aspirations that are most biologically fundamental are

those that ultimately facilitate reproduction of our genes in our children’s

• Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people, usually defined as an
ethnic, rational, racial, or religious group.

• The Political Instability Task Force estimated that 43 genocides occurred

between 1956 and 2016, resulting in about 50 million deaths. 

• Genocide is widely considered to signify the epitome of human evil.

• As a label, it is contentious because it is moralizing, and has been used as

a type of moral category since the late 1990s.
 RWANDA GENOCIDE

• Between April 7 and July 15, 1994, a genocide took place in

Rwanda. Genocide is the attempt to systematically and
deliberately exterminate a human group for their race, political,
or ideological preferences. In Rwanda, the Tutsi population was
the victim of intense persecution by another social group called
the Hutu. International organizations estimate that in only four
months, 70% of the Rwandan Tutsi population was violently
murdered

KEY: EXCERCISE
OF FREEDOM
 LIBERATION
(FREEDOM FROM)

• Liberation means being able to do what we want or need

without the deliberate interference of third parties. When
we talk about liberation, we must also talk about self-
regulation, because when you are free of limitations, the
only one responsible for your actions and their
consequences is you. So, to exercise your freedom
responsibly, you must be aware of its limits and the impact
of your decisions.
 PROJECTION
(FREEDOM TO)
• A projection is a future plan that can be carried
out because you have the freedom and the
necessary conditions to do so. In this case,
freedom is directed towards the future. You must
direct your actions and decisions toward a specific
goal. It is important to know the steps to take to
achieve your goals and to evaluate the pros and
cons of the situation. Projection also refers to the
way your actions and decisions impact others, a
factor that you must take into account when
making decisions.
 HUMAN RIGHTS 

• To exercise responsible freedom, we must recognize others’ 

human rights and dignity. Human dignity is a person’s self-
determination and respect deserved solely for being human.
Dignity, like freedom, is a universal human right because it
allows us to all develop fully as humans. 
 HUMAN RIGHTS 

• Human rights are guarantees that all people

enjoy from the moment they are born. They
are inalienable and must be protected by all the
world’s governments without exception.
 THE UNIVERSAL
DECLARATION OF
HUMAN RIGHTS

• Is a Document adopted by the General

Assembly of the United Nations in
1948, in which basic human rigths are
considered.

• Freedom is the ability of all people to
act—and to not act—like the rest. It is
an inalienable and unconditional
universal human right. Human beings
are born free and equal because we
possess awareness and autonomy.
Therefore, freedom implies acting with
respect for the laws and the rights of
others.
Freedom of thought: is the ability to have
your own awareness and judgment with
respect to an ideology, religion, or opinion.
This also guarantees the freedom to express
yourself individually or collectively.

Freedom of action refers to the ability to

carry out any activity within the law, such as
freedom of movement. All these freedoms are
protected at the national level by the
Constitution.
• Freedom is part of the rule of law, a principle of governance guided by
publicly enacted laws that include all citizens and the government. This
principle should guarantee respect, equality, and civic engagement.
• Responsibly exercising freedoms
guaranteed by laws results in the
exchange of ideas, lifestyles, and
beliefs. In other words, it promotes
diversity, which brings new
perspectives to debates on issues
affecting society, making for
inclusive solutions that support the
common good.
The responsible exercise of your freedoms of thought and action are
guaranteed by laws, such as the Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos
Mexicanos and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

However, you must keep in mind that your actions impact other people.
Therefore, it’s important to observe the limits of your freedom.

This is achieved when you apply values, such as respect, responsibility, and
self-regulation.

These promote a peaceful and egalitarian coexistence, which is characteristic

of the rule of law.

• Marie Antoinette of Austria was the last queen of France. She was born in
1755 and died in 1793, after an armed uprising that ended the monarchy
and gave rise to the French Revolution. According to her biographers,
Marie Antoinette was born into a very powerful family that prepared her
from childhood to increase her fortune. She married Louis when she was
only 14 years old and became the queen of a country that was already
showing signs of polarization. As in other episodes in history, few people
lived in abundance, while many barely had enough to eat. As a queen,
Marie Antoinette was accused of being disconnected from her people—
wasteful, boastful, and frivolous. The French were shocked to learn that
much of the public money was spent on lavish buildings, jewelry,
gambling, and luxuries of all kinds. When the situation reached a breaking
point, the people violently put an end to the monarchy. Marie Antoinette
was tried by a popular court and sentenced to death by guillotine.

a very young age, she showed concern for an unfair situation in her
country: In some regions, dominated by a fundamentalist Muslim
regime known as the Taliban, girls were banned from attending
school. This ban motivated Malala to become an activist for girls’
right to education. Her work was frowned upon by a section of the
Taliban, and, in 2012, Malala was attacked. She was shot several
times while traveling in a school bus. Fortunately, she survived.
Since then, her activism has become even stronger. Thanks to her
work, the Pakistani government and many others around the world
have intensified their efforts to bring education to boys and girls
alike. In 2014, Malala was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
