On the body. Notes towards a Pedagogical Erotica

Abstract

In this paper we ask ourselves about the place that bodies occupy in the patriarchal affective configuration of educational action in the college scene. First, we focus on the normativities that regulate the dominant conception of educational action through a pedagogical erotica centered on the cancellation of bodies’ epistemic value. Second, we investigate the continuities and ruptures that this erotica assumes in the framework of the forced virtualization of educational action, as a consequence of the health emergency produced by the Covid-19 pandemic. Finally, taking up some elements of the critical theory of the Affective Turn, we propose an interpretation of the conceptual framework provided by the National Law of Integral Sex Education, in order to postulate a pedagogical erotica that critically restores bodies and affections.in the educational scene and interrogates their patriarchal configuration
