| Sumario: | This bibliographic paper aims to probe the challenges for the formation of democratic subjects in a context of hegemony of neoliberal thought, which press in the construction of competitive subjectivities. The neoliberalism is understood, here, beyond the classically considered assumptions of economic policy that defend a minimum state in the economy and in socio-educational policies. The contributions of Dardot and Laval (2016) broaden the horizons of this understanding and problematize how the neoliberal assumptions enter subjectivities and produce new ways of life. Concepts such as neosubject, self-entrepreneur, competition, among others, translate these new assumptions. Seeking to translate this intention, the paper begins with a general problematization of the theme; reconstructs the main arguments of Dardot and Laval about the “new reason of the world”, in dialogue with authors like Sennett and Antunes; subsequently, it deepens some assumptions of school education, aiming at the formation of democratic subjects, especially with the contribution of Biesta. In conclusion, reaffirms the thesis that only a democratic education is able to qualify the assumptions of sociability in view of a common life. |
