HENNING, PAULA CORRÊA  and  FERRARO, JOSÉ LUÍS. THE SCHOOL-STATE RELATIONSHIP: PROVOCATIONS BY NIETZSCHE AND FOUCAULT TO THINK THE PRESENT TIME. Educ. rev. [online]. 2022, vol.38, e22033.  Epub Sep 03, 2022. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-469822033.

The present article aims to think about schools and their relation with the State. It is about to scrutinize this dyad and problematize strategies implemented to defend compulsory education as an unquestionable theme in the educational field. Accompanied by Friedrich Nietzsche and Michel Foucault, the text discusses the criticisms developed by the authors related to the pair school-State. From Nietzsche, the text draws upon his problematizations related to the belittling of school since its union with the State. From Foucault, the text bases its discussion on the State to debate how its articulation with schools became a privileged instrument to reinforce governmentality. The text argues that is only possible to think of schools problematically when we activate on us an acid criticism related to governmentality. We must refuse what we are to open possibilities to others' horizons of subjectivity, woven by the resistance against the instituted and authority truths.

Keywords : school; State; governmentality; Friedrich Nietzsche; Michel Foucault.
