Young people in a state of alert on Facebook: networked dialogues and dialogues interwoven on the network as a strategy of (re-)existence in the regulation of precarious lives

Journal Title: Práxis Educativa - Year 2019, Vol 14, Issue 3

Abstract

This paper explores how a group of young people appropriates digital social networks as a strategy of (re-)existence in the regulation of precarious lives. About 70 self-declared non-heterosexual young people who are part of a Facebook community participated in the fieldwork. The online conversations woven between them sought to problematize elements of the enunciative networks that forge the (cis)heterocentric regime, and the ways in which subjects position themselves in the face of normative interpellations. In this text, we analyze two conversations established with the participants of this research, who discussed same-sex civil marriage and the criminalization of discriminatory and prejudiced posts shared in the network, inviting us as educational professionals to recognize the subjects’ ethical implication with the social issues of daily life.
