SANCHEZ ROJAS, Juan Pablo. The Discourse of Competences and the Domestication of Critical Analysis in Higher Education. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2017, n.47, pp.79-93. ISSN 0121-2494.
This reflection paper discusses some of the conclusions obtained from a critical analysis of the discourse of competencies in Colombian higher education. From a Foucauldian perspective, the paper addresses the relations and modes of exercising power in public policy documents produced mainly by the Colombian Ministry Education. Among the results of the analysis, special attention is drawn to the problematization of the discourse of the competencies, presented as favorable to shaping critical and autonomous individuals and, secondly, to the analysis of the implications of the fact that this discourse operates through disciplinary techniques, which seek to control the critical behavior of the population and, thus, invoke their powers and dangers.
Palabras clave : Foucault; criticism, disciplinary power; societies of control; competencies; Colombian higher education.
