Transgenderism. Neoconservatism. Education. School evasion. Inclusion.
This research focus on transgender poeple who are going through or have gone through their school ages as transgender, as well as their experiences and stories about and inside the academic world and school life, focusing on school evasion and transphobia's part on gender divergent student's exclusion. As objectives, we have the realization of a diagnostic analysis about transgender poeple inclusion on the school place, understanding the points of view of both transgender students and the school staff, examining one school's pedagogical team part on that student's retention. For such, a mapping of the living experiences will be done through the conduction of semi-structured interviews, in a manner as to understand the conections between personal, familial, economic and religious sphere's of one's life and it's possible evasion. The research will be conducted with emphasis on the concept of "gender performativity"by Judith Butler (2001, 2010). Thinkers of several areas that discuss fascism and neoconservatism such as Adorno and Bugiato, will be debated because those movement's and ideologies frequent involvement with antitrans efforts; Louro (2010) and Goffman (1980) are used to think the transgender person's part inside and outside of the classroom. The methods chosen applied are documental analyzis, bibliographic revision and semi-structured interview conduction. This research will enable reflection about transgender people's scholar life, the reproduction of opressions on the academic field and a pedagogical's team part on transgender retention, as well as producing new qualitative data about this population's school experience.
