Abstract | The field of career development faces challenges in light of the significant ecological, economic, and political changes occurring globally. In response to these challenges, Guichard (2022) identified the need for new conceptual frameworks and interventions in the career field consistent with Arendt's (1958) broad perspective of action and the active life rather than simply making smooth transitions to occupations. In this article, contextual action theory is proposed as one alternative approach that addresses some of these issues regarding reconceptualizing career theory and practice. Specifically contextual action theory focuses on goal-directed action, provides a theoretical connection between action and career, incorporates social context, and provides a new framework for interventions. Specific approaches to career interventions and counseling are provided. (As Provided). |
