INOCENCIO, Adalberto Ferdnando  and  SALVI, Rosana Figueiredo. The reverberation of the environmental crisis: an archaeological analysis of the discourse of science teachers. Ciência educ. [online]. 2017, vol.23, n.3, pp.613-624. ISSN 1980-850X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320170030005.

This research analysed the discourses of nine Science teachers of Maringa-PR municipality within the 'to be - to know' Foucault's domain, emphasizing the questioning of sayings and statements that guided the understanding of science and environmental crisis by identifying potential practices in Environmental Education (EE). The core of this research was the examination of discursive manifestations about science, through the way the composition of statements resonated in approaches to EE, understood by discursive elements put into circulation. For the procedural aspect of the discourse analysis, we assumed the archaeological domain opting for systematization of the corpus in different analysis foci, in the light of the notion of discursive formation, taken as a key concept, not stopping only on priori categories, but its recurrences and discontinuities. Although a transition of statements about science was identified, when applied to the environmental crisis the presented results pointed out naturalized discourses, accompanied by the belief that technical-scientific devices will orient its solution.

Keywords : Environmental education; Environmental chrisis; Foucault's archeology; Discourse.
