The Astute figure of Equality on Restaurative Justice Discourse

Abstract

 Abstract: This article discusses the concept of equality, such as a truth value functioning in the discourse of Restaurative Justice from the analysis of discursive practices in the city of Porto Alegre. A discourse which operates in the logic of inclusion of everyone in the school space, that believes on an existence of human equal functioning, and school having this formation obligation. An inclusion that, in the same time, affirm an “inside space” and a supposed “self” of human sciences, now crossed by juridical sciences. We are living on a contemporary biopolitic, which in the search for the risk management, even that in potential, produces a flattering of what is not constituted as equal, trying to keep “everyone's right”, because this would be the price charged by the equality contract. A discourse that works in the name of the “defense” of the differences, concerning this as the other of identity to be saved and became the same. A biopolitic in the name of the defense of the society by means of self-government in a general panoptical. And, with those movements, should we think in practices of resistance which would search for other experimentations in this education field, such as mouthful of air not to restore in this way a true still more straight, but specifically putting itself in this game of truth in the questioning of the ways as we have been governmenting and its implications into our present? Maybe these are a bet in punctual practices, still not generalized, leave-taking away of so much identity and ways already available.Keywords: Restaurative Justice, Equality, Inclusion, School.
