Diálogos sobre educación

Educational issues are not restricted only to the realm of formal education: subjectivities may be constituted in non-formal or informal spaces, and even in those not intentionally designed to that end.

Focusing on other areas beyond the school allows us to bring into discussion the reach and limitations of this privileged space of production of subjects. Out there, away from the boundaries of this device, we find other realms of intentional and/or incidental formation that also shape subjectivities and produce various effects. Teacher, student and social movements produce acting subjects that reshape themselves individually and collectively through their actions, and that in their organized action even  produce changes in the educational policies that affect them or allow for new policies to emerge. This is the focus of this issue, the formative dimensions of the activism and participation in mobilization processes, as well as their possible intersections with the production or reorientation of public policies in this sector.
