Alternative title:

Utopia as educational intervention. From deconstructing heterotopia in narratives to multiculturalism

Subject and Keywords:

biographical narrative   educational intervention   heterotopia   Michael Foucault   utopia

Abstract:

In this article utopia is presented in the perspective of Foucauldian thought. Foucault’s notion of utopia is the starting point of the presented study and an element which organizes the analysis of biographical research material (I used narratives from my previous research project). The change of the subjective status of narrators is the central direction of this analysis. Such change can be understood as educational intervention which occurs when people refer to utopia in their narratives. One can see the theoretical construction presented in this text as inspiration to possible educational creations. In the final part of the paper one such creation is proposed in light of the contemporary value of multiculturalism.
