POLITICS IN THE STREET: SUBJECTIVATION, RESISTENCE AND OCCUPATION OF PUBLIC SPACES

Abstract

This article is part of a thesis for a master degree developed from and together with the social movements that used the occupation of public spaces as a resistance strategy in the city of Porto Alegre, between the years of 2013 and 2015. Its purpose is to use cartography as a methodological reference in the mapping of the subjectivation forms produced in this process, relating the notion of occupation, as an strategy of the social movements, to the ways of occupying the self: present terms in the foucaultian thought (more specifically, in the issue of the care of the self). The text starts with a brief discussion on the sungularity of these social movements, passing on to the theoretical debate on the concept of "occupation", and ends up with some openings brought by this discussion. Also, there is an analysis of the possible ways to relate the activities of research and militance in the social movements, considering its ethical implications.

Key words:
occupation of public spaces; ethics of the care of the self; subjectivation ways; social movements
