Descripción
Sumario:This paper gathers pieces of the modern philosophical machinery aimed at the critique of institutionalized education (and especially of the University) as a kind of machine subordinated to the larger machine that is the state. Accompanying the development of this trope in writings on society and its institutions along with modernity, from Herder to Foucault, I seek to reconstruct the function that it exercised in the formulation of a critical discourse on a specific model of University as a public institution. The second part of the paper starts with a reading of Deleuze’s Post-scriptum on control societies and goes on to point out certain signs that, just as the state itself, the University is going through a deep transformation, which demands a corresponding change in the strategy of the critical discourse associated with it.
