VAL, Gisela Maria do y AQUINO, Julio Groppa. THE GREAT LISBON EARTHQUAKE AND THE IRRUPTION OF A NEW SOCIAL ORDER. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.23, e85688. Epub 07-Mar-2019. ISSN 2236-3459. https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/85688.
Grounded on some theoretical notions bequeathed by Michel Foucault, this article is devoted to describing and analyzing the emergence of a new socio-educational order in Portugal after the earthquake of 1775, responsible for the reconfiguration of the nexus power-knowledge-truth that had guided the modes of existence until then. The discussions mobilize a set of documents from that period, through which it is possible to witness the constitution of a new art of governing supported by educative strategies of the living. Thus, the idea of population arises as a central element of a type of governing carried out by the dissemination of a scientific-based rationality with educational purposes.
