Abstract

This work proposes an approach with studies of post-structuralist side, seeking to launch other looks for questions considered naturalized in the social and cultural field on the relationship between female/maternal care and family. Thinking it was possible to establish a dialogue between gender and education, although maintaining the differences that constitute these two cultural universes, this paper aims problematize the discourses about motherhood and the crossing of the production of the female role in the family, especially with regard to the care of children with deficiency. The locus of the research was the Design of Stimulator Essential NEPES and the materiality of the study was tied to the analysis of fragments of discourse articulated by the project participants - the group of women caregivers - about their roles in the face of mothering children with deficiency and for interns of the Undergraduate Program in Special Education - Full Degree, University Federal of Santa Maria, who treated the children of the project. Seeking to make use of portions of the thought of Michel Foucault, especially about the relationship between knowledge and power and governance of conduct, it is clear the intention to understand how the discursive practices put into operation by experts in special education is a strategy government conducts female/maternal for the care of children with deficiency. From the materiality of the study was possible to see how the discourses have historically produced an immanent rationality care for female/maternal, especially in the deficiency field, and characterize a set of discourses connected to an expertise that, underpinned by an apparatus pedagogical knowledge, knowledge that articulates the governance strategies of mothers/caretakers special, thus portraying the political legitimacy of the authority of the expert.
