For a sociology of suspension: of the recursivity between concepts and practices

Abstract

Result of research related to Doctorate in Education, whose focus is the didactic teaching of Sociology in school, the work addresses the sociological imagination, the estrangement and the denaturalization in connection with the autobiographical narratives as training methods. The objectives were: put in dialogue the Sociology’s curricular orientations and the autobiographical narratives as training methods; debate the work’s epistemological foundation with self-referential narratives at the Sociology classes; present and analyse a Sociology teaching proposal starting from the autobiographical narratives of the students from the first year of high school. It was discussed about the concepts of the (Self) Biographic Reasearch in Education that are reflected in the educational and socialization processes of Thomas Luckmann, Peter Berger, Charles W. Mills, Pierre Bourdieu and Bernard Lahire. The analysis of the didactic proposal showed that writing about self could cause estrangements and provoke suspension of knowledge and rearrangement if approached in conjunction with the sociological themes.
