Abstract

In the present paper, a legalization procedure related to a different school function model is defined. Starting from the ambiguity of the notion related to the school democratic function, the form of hypocrisy is projected, which has already been formulated, as the dominating discourse is in favor of authenticity and validates the prevailing authority. In this perspective, new organizational student-teacher forms are suggested to formulate a biopolitical environment through new communication networks – of social and personal appeal. As a consequence, the authoritarian structures and dominating relations are transformed into democratic forms of organization, taking into account the individuals’ social and cultural subjectivity in their social environment. More specifically, through the transgression of the explicit and implicit forms of power and authority, concentration will be placed on the schematic correspondence of structures and relations so that democracy will be reinterpreted under its social and political content.
