Unconcealing pedagogical devices congruent with dictatorships. A contribution to prevent and repair Damage to children.

Abstract

In this contribution we want to highlight the fact that, even where we are not in a full-blown dictatorship, hidden or potential dictatorial forms may be present. These are supported by pedagogical devices consistent with them.  It is important to connect the theme of dictatorship both with studies on patriarchy and with black pedagogy, which present very similar assumptions. Violence is transmitted between generations if something does not intervene to interrupt these chains of destructiveness and the traumas they generate. You have to think outside the box. We need to go beyond pretending nothing happened, minimizing, normalizing, taking it for granted and obvious, beyond the fear of betraying family loyalties, facing our own demons and our own archaic fears to look at the profound phenomenology of problems. It cannot be just an individual effort but rather a collective theoretical-practical-political educational action for which to prepare and train.
