A violência simbólica vivenciada na prática de estágio da educação infantil: revisando o conceito e analisando os fatos

Abstract

The present work is based on Pierre Bourdieu's sociological construction, with the objective of analyzing the concept of symbolic violence and relating it to the experience in early childhood education. By reflecting on this experience, the authors of this article recognize the need to address certain events related to the way children are treated during classes. Thus, the research seeks to highlight how the symbolic violence manifests itself in a subtle way, taking different forms, with an emphasis on psychological violence. The methodology adopted consists of a qualitative approach, using bibliographic research, in accordance with the principles of social and human sciences. Furthermore, the study is exploratory in nature, based on the analysis of the environment observed during the internship. Based on this investigation, the consonance of the Brazilian school context with the dominant discourse becomes evident, and how educational practices contribute to perpetuating this discourse. Finally, it is essential to analyze how symbolic violence manifests itself in early childhood education and how pedagogical actions are intrinsically linked to this practice.
