"IF I WERE TO MAKE A TRANSITION, I WOULD BE THROWN OUT INTO THE STREET"

precarious life, trans-universe and education

Abstract

Enhancing different lives leads us to producing strategies to recognize them as possible. Starting from a precarious recognition of a life requires problematizing discussions that elect certain points that places it in a frame without intelligibility. Under the focus of post-critical research in education, using Foucauldian archeology, we access narrative discursive memories of the time of gender transition in the school, family, and community of one of the participante in the Doctorate in Education research, Luna. The method used for data collection was the narrative interview, aiming to find cartographic memories of lives that clashed with the rules, designed subversive contours and still remained in a school environment. For this text, the analysis of Luna's narratives brings the subjective construction of female gender during the school period. As a result, Luna made possible predictions about life projects in which education represented a form of resistance and rupture with the precariousness of life that affects trans people.
