Análisis arqueológico y genealógico del dispositivo proyecto de excelencia docente 2010-2018: sujetos en resistencia y reconfiguración de las relaciones de poder en contextos de aulas vivas del departamento de Boyacá

Abstract

Teaching in Colombia is a practice that has been the subject of heated debates and different conditions that have made visible a field of tensions and conditions in which, together with the legal, normative and social frameworks that surround what teachers do, different factors have emerged that constitute forms of governmentality, devices and practices in which complex relations with the government become visible, educators, as well as the possible actions that could lead to the construction of different governmentalities, in which it is possible to account for the possible opposition between the model of excellence and the reaffirmation of life as a bet of other devices constituted as craftsmanship of relationships and that are the basis of other modes of government in the educational context. Given this situation, the present doctoral research starts from the questioning of the archaeological and genealogical analytical possibilities about the project of teacher exclusion in the period 2010-2018 as well as the tools to propose a different governmentality based on experiences of resistance in Boyacá. In this sense, we seek to trace in the educational discourses of the 2010-2018 period the process through which the excellent teacher device has been consolidated, which implies a certain governmental configuration of education and educators. To develop the research process, this document is organized in three chapters that seek to account for the diagnostic, methodological and analytical phases of the research exercise. Chapter one presents the elements of the context that make up the strategic order in which the event of an excellent teacher takes place. It outlines the central aspects of the critique of the device and points out the most important antecedents for the present research. Chapter two proposes the development of an archeological and genealogical research inspired by the work of Foucault, about the elements that give rise to and consolidate the policy of the excellent teacher for Colombia (2010-2018), making visible its functioning as a biopolitical device of security and control. This analysis will allow us to propose specific tactics of resistance to the governmental strategy of teaching excellence. Chapter three, on the other hand, deals with the practices that serve as a foundation and starting point for the development of the constitutive elements of the analysis on which the research process is based at a propositional level, in order to consolidate the conditions that allow to propose a different governmentality that emerges within the collective actions that have life as the main axis for an action different from that of the framework of excellence. Finally, the conclusions make visible the points that synthesize the characteristics and conditions that support a different proposal of government of oneself and others: the craftsmanship of relationships.
