Contemporary subject and education
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article places the contemporary subject in the midst of a tug al war between the current social structure and education in general, a scenario where ultimately alterity and subject arise. In this pursue the becoming of the infant and adolescent subject are described from different approaches such as psychoanalysis, developmental psychology and philosophy.
Different levels of contemporary experience are considered: in one hand, the educational relationship, the post-modern structure and its logic. The author deals with the relationship between the infant and adolescent subject, the father- teacher knowledge and the dominant market logic.
Amidst this tension, education takes on the transmission of conditions and boundaries that would both enable the making of judgments about reality and by acknowledging alterity, become himself a subject fitted to perform ethical actions.
