“Apertem os cintos”... uma viagem pelos sentidos e possibilidades do Programa de Educação Afetivo-Sexual (PEAS)

Abstract

Appropriating of the characteristics of “movement”, “unpredictability” and “inconstancy” of travellings, the research has focused on the “senses” and the “possibilities” that the “presence” of the Love-Sexual Education Program (LSEP) has mobilized in its participants that act in three county public schools in Juiz de Fora (MG). The work presents the analysis undertaken from some specific themes: sexuality, sexual education, identity formation, subject production, power relationship in the school and teaching formation. The theoreticalmethodological reference that builds a foundation for the analysis is anchored in the postestructured perspective and in the theory by the philosopher Michel Foucault, allowing the development and the multiplication of questions, without the objective of presenting answers or definitive conclusions. The main questions of the research, that gave occasion to several others, were: what senses are attributed to LSEP by teachers ant other professional(s) that participate of its “capacitation”? Which types of subjects are produced and what do these subjects produce in the contexts of LSEP actions? Which possibilities do these subjects see for LSEP and for sexual education in school? The problems point to the different forms to which LSEP associates itself to school quotidian, incorporating itself to power relationships present in these space. This allows is to argue that the program acts as technology of subject and identity productions, turning available determined forms of comprehending and living the love-sexual relationships.
