O Povo Disciplinar de Geografia e a Tradução na Política de Currículo

Abstract

This paper constitutes an investigation into the curriculum policy for the Geography Teaching at the secondary level. I propose, specifically, through the floating signifier interdisciplinarity, understand precipitation processes of subjectivity in the translation of the Geography curriculum integration. I appropriate post-structural contributions, markedly approximate the discourse theory of Ernesto Laclau, in order to think about the curriculum policies as getting through discursive struggles, marked by antagonism and exclusion. To think these movements initially seek to situate the perspective of curriculum as text, as textualization, focusing on interpretation of Macedo Lopes and that the curriculum is produced in the articulation of discourses. In this view, understand the meanings produced for / by Geography at the secondary level, within a discursive construction as well as the integrated curriculum. Because of the instability inserted to reflect on the curriculum policy, elements such as subject and subjectivities constituted in the relationship with it now configure the scenario analysis that sought to build. In this sense, I problematize the Goodson s perspective of subject community to focus laclaunian perspective of people as equivalence chain. With that, I try to reconceptualize the reading of political subjectivity in view the demands that they be. This exercise unfolded in a proposal to think the construction of disciplinary political subject through the front decision to another, it is interpreted as a denial of self. Here, I think the discourse of curriculum integration as a possible other, which can be interpreted as opposed to one for each subject, and therefore a threat to Geography. The strategic move aimed at understanding this translation was made through the textualization approach to this policy, by interleaving the theoretical corpus of texts to Parameters, Curriculum Guidelines for Secondary Education and interviews with leaders, researchers and consultants involved in the production of policy. These empirical elements are read as moments of political, as distinct contexts of response (s), who seek to supplement the lack of the subject than you want to be. Having interdisciplinarity as one of the means by which it means the curriculum integration in the humanities, where the geography is inserted, I discuss how this is translated by significant disciplinary people of Geography. A translation, response to the threat of another, unknown, which is interpreted as something that exposes the subjectivity, the people of Geography, at risk. In light of the fears put, tuned for a performance of attempted shielding against another. Such expression is understood as the translation of interdisciplinarity as characteristic of Geography, as its own features, such as herself. I conclude by drawing attention to what they interpret as a struggle for stabilization of antagonism between integration and discipline (Geography), and I focus on the translation of the other senses as a possibility to exist and, in this reading, stating a property that is provisionally as what is supposed to be questioned by others, something that depends on to continue
