Abstract
“This study addresses issues that concern the life of individuals who need to legitimize their academic development in circumstances frequently outside their control due to emigration flows of modern societies. In doing so it relates the study of Discourse Analysis to the broad topic of Education focusing on aspects that concern the right to continue studies independently of the place where they have been undertaken. The specific purpose of this research is to explore the contextual dimension of social constructs that tend to be interpreted in different manners, and because of these differences, they create confusion and false expectations which in turn lead to frustration and abandonment of professional goals. This research project initiates with the assumption that individuals who wish to revalidate studies (usually in higher level) have proven to have the need, the skills, and the attitude necessary for professional development. These individuals, however, when confronted with the obstacles derived from institutional requirements frequently abandon their pursuit. The results of the study have, to a certain extent, confirmed the stated assumption; however, the study has provided additional insight into the attitude that emerges from the experience of legalization and revalidation of studies done in different countries.”
