Abstract

Approach the ideology requires the ability to going inside to the contemporary
perspectives of this theme, since this phenomenon acquires increasingly more complex configurations
today. We chose the Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek as articulator of the myriad of concepts about
ideology and, we takes as a fundamental bases the Althusser's theory and its concepts of Ideology and its
“Ideological State Apparatus”. When tensioning reflexively these concepts we visualize how ideology acts
and what are crucial elements. To get this aim, within the philosophical tradition, we approach, beyond
the perspective of Althusser's apparatus, the concepts of positivity of Hegel, dispositive of Foucault and
Agamben, and “great Other” of Lacan, as control and alienation of the subject. Thus, we will better
understand the criticism of the "School Ideological Apparatus" and its developments concerning to
Brazilian education. In this sense , we also perceive the limits of Althusser's thinking, with regard to the
process of subjectivation and dessubjectivation, and about how the education process can be full of
events, since it can be in permanent transformation because it is never complete, as well as the subject is.
