Teaching under the logic of the pastoral power

Abstract

The present text presents a conceptual research, and its dialogue with the school everyday practice, having as goal the experience of teaching under the logic of the pastoral power. As a field work we organized an extension course aimed at school workers and teachers-to-be, round the theme “crises and conflicts at school”. Conceptual tools were presented, plastic activities done and debates provoked, approaching the pastoral power and the subjective production constructed in the liberal society, in a relation with the work of teaching. Contrasting the present reality, emerged in the voice of some teachers the coactive force of romanticized characters presented in movies and television programs that produce a certain identity of a woman-teacher. The scenes presented by the participants of this experience make clear the crossing of the pedagogical policies with the projects developed in school, as well as the importance of constructing collective spaces to think the senses of the pedagogical labor at school.
