GELAMO, Rodrigo Pelloso. A questão da experiência no ensino da filosofia: um problema contemporâneo. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2010, vol.26, n.02, pp.383-400. ISSN 0102-4698.

The problems that affect society are no longer focused on the scope of reflection about culture, politics and on a turnaround in itself. Life, one of the main elements of philosophical reflection, has become devoid of value and now is measured by the “desire” of the market. Hence, according to Foucault, it is difficult to create conditions of resistance, since it is not known where power comes from, where we are and what we want: everything that belonged to the subject is captured by biopower. Thus, we live (survive, according to the terms used by Agamben) at a time of impoverishment from culture, life, values and ourselves. The problem that arises, then, is how to resist to that impoverishment? We believe that a possible key to think this problem is the attempt to understand how we have become impoverished from that capacity to do an experience. Our intention is to comprehend how the teaching of philosophy faces the poverty of experience, pointed by Benjamin.
