The Concept of Post-Critical Curriculum in Physical Education

This study aims to problematize the concept of post-criticality in curricular uses in the field of school Physical Education. To this end, we used theorizations from both the philosophical and educational fields, as well as their effects on the epistemological discussions of the aforementioned component. As a working method, we took as inspiration the concept of geophilosophy from the French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (Deleuze; Guattari, 2010). At first, based on its territorialization in the curricular field and its reterritorialization in Physical Education, we highlight the conditions of immanence and the potential of the concept in question and then de-territorialize it, pointing out the risks that accompany classificatory thinking. As a final reflection, we propose a radicalization of the differential process in curricular production, positioning all propositional minority creations in the field of Physical Education as important for a fairer and less violent society, requiring the continuity of work that avoids reductionism and sectarianism
