TASCHETTO, Leonidas Roberto. Resonances of ambivalence and resistance in a classroom. Educ. Real. [online]. 2011, vol.36, n.03, pp.747-760. ISSN 0100-3143.
The aim of this paper is to show how police students of a professional update course focused on attitudinal changes mean their profession and the course who participates as students in front of a public security policy based on human rights and agreements and international treaties on the use of force and firearms. The procedure adopted to achieve this goal was to analyze the utterances made by police students during the course, taking into account the theoretical and methodological arsenal Michel Pêcheux, Michel Foucault, Homi K. Bhabha. The results of the analysis of utterances of the students point either to a sense of ambivalence or to a sense of resistance to the changes sought by the government through the course and its focus.
