Abstract

The present article aims to think schools and its relation with the State. It is about to scrutinize this dyad and problematize strategies implemented to defend compulsory education as unquestionable theme in the educational field. Accompained by Friedrich Nietzsche and Michel Foucault, the text discusses the criticisms developed by the authors related to the pair school-State. From Nietzsche, the text draws upon his problematizations related to the belittle of school since its union with the State. From Foucault, the text bases its discussion on the State to debate how its articulation with schools became a privileged instrument to reinforce governmentality. The text argues that is only possible to think schools problematically when we activate on us an acid criticism related to governmentality. It is our duty to refuse what we are to open possibilities to others horizons of subjectivity, woven by the resistance against the instituted and authority truths.
