MACHADO, Diandra Dal Sent. Becoming a citizen: Education, Politics and Developmental Psychology. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.75, pp.1351-1376. Epub Jan 16, 2024. ISSN 1982-596X. https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v35n75a2021-59480.
Considering the Honnethian thesis that there is today a disconnexion between Education and Politics, and asserting a strong link between these fields in the thought of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in this work we present some aspects of how, for him, it is possible for a human, as a member of the species, to become a citizen. Then, relying on Nussbaum's critique of the fact that many educational proposals do not make developmental psychology explicit, we suggest a link between Education, Politics and psychological ideas in Rousseau. Ahead, we bring elements of Jean Piaget's psychogenetic research, proposing that this type of research allows a strengthening of the nexus between the fields of Education, Politics and, now, Developmental Psychology, contributing to the still current discussion about becoming a citizen.
