Abstract
- This article reflects about the construction of alternative spaces through media for the inclusion of diverse gender subjectivities in the school. The theoretical contributions used are made from an interdisciplinary dialogue of postmodern feminists and gender theorists, and also by theories of communication. Likewise, the tendencies of interpretation of the relational phenomenon subject –communicative mediatic phenomena– culture and society are approached from technophobic and technophilic positions, produced from different disciplinary knowledges.The analysis is based on a series of situations that occurred in Colombia where the proposal of inclusion of diverse gender subjectivities in the school generated significant social and political reactions by acquiring an unconstitutional character and being contrary to the principles negotiated in the Peace Accords.The proposals identified in media indicates possible ambivalence regarding the potential of media as a facilitator or obstacle to the openness of recognition and respect for gender diversity. Unveiling the way some media through strategies such as: the diversification and naturalization of gender imaginaries, the implementation of a supply of informed knowledge and the motivation of processes of gender awareness, potentiates processes to approach gender subjectivities useful in school contexts and other social contexts.
