Abstract

The pandemic of Covid-19 brings some new elements on the social scenario. These new elements are invalidating consolidated convictions and interpretations of our daily life. However, the pandemic, sometimes, proposes itself as something that falsely opens new scenarios. In fact, thanks to this emergency situation (expertly exploited), the pre-existent neoliberal social structures seem to obtain legitimacy rather than critics. However, over the time, even before this pandemic, these neoliberal structures have produced a precarious widespread culture, social vulnerability and multiple processes of impoverishment. This essay proposes a pedagogical reading of some of these educational cultural continuities, trying to show the consequences in terms of (singular and collective) learnings which could influence the lives in the territories and that could strength and widely expose to some situations of poverty.
