Parenting practices in early childhood as technologies of power in family and educational contexts
...
García Botero, Leonardo | 2022
This research with a post-structuralist epistemological approach and qualitative methodology had the objective
of revealing the conditions that make it possible for the parenting practices of caregivers of early childhood
children in family and educational contexts to be configured as technologies of power (procedures through
which power relations are socially legitimized). Likewise, it was proposed to demonstrate the self-care practices
of children configured as technologies of the self. The results made it possible to identify current parenting
practices where discipline practices are still evident in both contexts. It is concluded that power relations arise
in the middle of a relational triad school - family - childhood, in an apparently functional gear, thus, children are
influenced by the processes of both entities and begin to witness how the family has become Foucault's terms
in an "institution". Part of the practices carried out by adults are incorporated by children and become self-care
practices that, according to the analysis obtained, are part of a powerful formation of technologies of the self,
however, not so well achieved. at this age, but a strong constitution is expected in the next stages of the life
cycle.
