Subjectivity and politics: implications for educational discourse

Abstract

The article proposes an interpretative framework to explore the possible links between educational policies and subjectivities shaping. Considering, as building blocks, the contributions of phenomenology and hermeneutics, it is presented a proposal that aims to disrupt dichotomous and reductionist readings of current educational phenomena; restricting the present educational policy to a theme of “administration" and resource management instead of leading to an insight into the strategically issues, purposes and the real meaning of education.
