The purpose of this article is to problematize the discursive configurations that intertwine the meanings of social participation, scientific knowledge and the exercise of citizenship in the standard policy of the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC), focusing on the area of Natural Sciences and its Technologies aimed at High school. Starting from a discursive post-structural epistemological implication, it makes use of Derrida’s deconstructive meditations, above all the philosophical notion of unconditional hospitality and his commitment to radical alterity, to think about the curricular implications of the institution of learning standards for the social use of scientific knowledge in the BNCC policy aimed at science education. In this itinerary, by deepening the discussion about the difference in curricular theorizing, it develops the argument that the pragmatic fixation of the relationship between scientific knowledge, social participation, the exercise of citizenship, and the consequent projection of behavioral patterns to the subjects, leads to think of the universalist gesture of instituting standard conduct through school science learning. It is argued that the notion of unconditional hospitality, by placing the infinite relationship with unexpected alterity and the opening of the curriculum to difference at the center of the debate, makes it possible, at the same time, to problematize the limits of the universalist representation of citizen identity in curriculum policy of the BNCC, as well as thinking about a non deterministic curriculum, knowledge and social participation policy, causing cracks in the discursive operations that circumscribe standards about what it means to be a citizen in science education.
