Abstract
Abstract We present the results of a survey conducted with students who are members of a student council at a public school in Santa Catarina. We seek to answer the question: what subject is the school producing in contemporary democracy? Based on post-structuralism, we aim to problematize the democratic practices of a student council. We used Deleuze, Guattari, and Foucault as our main theoretical framework. For data collection, we used a field diary composed of audios recorded at council meetings and transcriptions. Although the student council reflects on democratic management and establishes a space of multiple possibilities, it operates simultaneously as an extension of the curriculum by producing the docile, useful, and participative subject demanded by our time.
