Este contexto ha disminuido el interés estudiantil, los apoyos institucionales y su presencia curricular. El autor, Ignacio Sánchez, sostiene que estas disciplinas, históricamente centrales en la vida universitaria, siguen siendo decisivas para el pensamiento crítico, la formación ética, la cohesión social y la lectura responsable de la información. Además, ofrecen herramientas duraderas para abordar problemas contemporáneos. La reflexión propone revisar los currículos, reforzar la interdisciplinariedad y reconocer su impacto social y cultural.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract This reflection explores the challenges currently affecting the Humanities and the Arts in complex universities in Chile and Latin America, particularly within a landscape dominated by scientific and technological priorities. This situation has weakened student interest, institutional support, and curricular presence. The author, Ignacio Sánchez, argues that these fields, historically central to university life, remain vital for cultivating critical thinking, ethical awareness, social cohesion, and responsible engagement with information. They also equip students with durable skills for addressing contemporary issues. The Reflection calls for curricular revision, stronger interdisciplinary initiatives, and a renewed appreciation of their social and cultural contributions.]]></p></abstract>
