SIERRA, Jamil Cabral  y  CESAR, Maria Rita de Assis. Governamentalidade neoliberal e o desafio de uma ética/estética pós-identitária LGBT na educação. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2014, n.numeroesp01, pp.35-51. ISSN 0104-4060.

This paper is the outcome of the combination of two theoretical researches and it intends to analyze the relationship that has been recently established between the idea of sexual diversity (and its consequences in the political field, in social movements and in education) and the anatomo-bio-political apparatuses which configure the current governmental mechanisms that aim at the capture of sexual differences, placing them in the field of normality and heteronormativity. Once this theoretical assumption is taken, the text is organized and developed into two moments: the first one intends to show how the production of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) subjects has been contemporarily activated thru the pattern of the "moral-economic-viability" of their bodies, sexual, loving and affective practices. By means of this reasoning, we try to think how contemporary forms of governing the subjects of sexual diversity have been developed in the course of a certain partnership between social movements and the Brazilian State. In the second moment, we employ some Foucauldian notions such as ethics/aesthetics of existence in order to highlight the tensions that pervade the biopolitical mechanisms which promote the capture of sexual difference, leaving almost no space for the constitution of another ways of living. The paper intends to produce some theoretical displacements in the prevailing identity logics, developing a critical questioning of LGBT educational and political theorizations. In other words, we aim at breaking the bounds that bind together the identity model and actual policies of sexual diversity, in order to think about other homosexual ways of living.
