Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the Philosophy teaching as an enterprise of a minor education. The notion of minor education refers to a Sílvio Gallo`s appropriation of the concept of minor literature which appears in the book about Kafka written by Deleuze and Guattari. A minor education would be some kind of a resistance against the major education models represented by law regulations and State institutions and its ideological apparatus. The Philosophy teaching as a minor education serves as an alternative to the educational model as an instrument of State disciplinary and control dispositive on individuals. If the major education is machinery which produces serial individuals, without a face, the function of a minor education is to obstruct the machinery functioning, to resist its operational standard and to provide a learning environment that creates new learning and existence possibilities. Thorough this approach Philosophy lessons will assume the Deleuze and Guattari’s conception of Philosophy as a concepts creator in opposition to the encyclopedic teaching method. The students will have access to the philosophical critical thinking experience, and along with their teachers they will be able to questioning and problematizing reality and the state of affairs, giving them a new meaning and create the new, resisting the domination models of the “control societies”.
