Spaces and figures of school ritualization
Keywords:
School ritualization, performativity, the character of the student, biographization.Abstract
The purpose of this article is to put in perspective the forms of school ritualization and the specific biographic constructions with which the educational institution is provided. Being an “abstract” spot of the world, a place where a self-referential relation with knowledge establishes signs and discourses as ends for themselves, theschool is, itself, its own setting: its modes of action indicate a generalized performativity for which it does not stop matching its practical achievements with the signs it produces. The school finds the stimulus for such performativity in the application of spaces and ritualized devices through which it performs teaching-learning actions y the gesture of its representation. In this referential framework, the character of the “student”, analyzed as a set of prescriptions that define the forms of participation in the school’s ritual activity, establishes a particular biographic order, which comes into conflict with its own characters and the biographical experience of the individuals-students
