本文探讨了社会工作者和教师中政治主体性和政治化的产生。我们介绍了促使教师和社会工作者在政治上变得活跃的情况,并研究了他们的斗争可能对这些无人陪伴的儿童意味着什么。我们还问,民族国家是如何被质询和转变的。通过对拉克劳、穆夫和比埃斯塔的研究,我们发现,政治主体性在规范冲突和问询矛盾的情况下出现。当瑞典驱逐无人陪伴的难民儿童时,许多社会工作者和教师发现自己在充当忠诚的公务员和按照他们的职业道德行事之间左右为难。当这一类别的代表作为政治主体出现在政治变革中时,民族国家就会变得不稳定和漏洞百出,为变革创造了可能性。
This article discusses the emergence of political subjectivity and politicization among social workers and teachers. We present situations that have induced teachers and social workers to become politically active and examine what their struggle might imply for these unaccompanied children. We also ask how the nation state is interpellated and transformed. Drawing on Laclau, Mouffe and Biesta, we find that political subjectivity emerges in situations with conflicting norms and contradictory interpellations. When Sweden deported unaccompanied refugee children, numerous social workers and teachers found themselves torn between acting as loyal civil servants or acting in accordance with their professional ethics. When representatives from this category emerge as political subjects directed at political change, the nation state becomes unstable and porous, creating possibilities for change.
