STUDENT OCCUPATIONS IN MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL: POLITICAL SUBJECTIVATION AND TRAJECTORIES

ABSTRACT

The experiences of fourteen students in the student occupations in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais in 2016 are analyzed, through semi-structured interviews, addressing how much the educational dimension of this movement has affected their political trajectories. The occupation can be considered a process of political subjectification, in the sense given by Rancière, in which the active political participation in a collective action of great formative impact triggered processes of deidentification in relation to traditional social roles. Despite the fact that there were few effective engagements in political organizations, there is a readiness for political participation and the conversion of the experiences of the occupation into practices defined as progressive in everyday life.
