BATISTA, Fabio; BACCON, Ana Lúcia Pereira y GABRIEL, Fábio Antonio. Thinking the school from Foucault's perspective: a disciplinary institution in crisis?. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2015, vol.40, n.1, pp.1-17. ISSN 0101-7136. https://doi.org/10.0104/interacao.2015.401.01.
The aim of this paper is to present a perspective on discipline, based on the thinking of the French philosopher Michel Foucault, within the school context in contemporary society where the student no longer easily accepts disciplinary techniques. To do so, we use the concept of disciplinary power and seek to characterize the school as an institution in which that power is exercised. We also present some thoughts and considerations about another possible school that seeks to provide minimal formal education for students, which would go beyond the mere training of individuals and could be important for their lives. From these assumptions, we can only wonder: is the current school a disciplinary institution in crisis? Using our research as a diagnosis, we respond affirmatively to that question.
