Abstract

In previous study, attached to Clinical Psychology, different social and cultural actions were mapped in order to conceive connections between the realms of experience and politics.The clinical perspective worked as a methodological term and the practice of listening was an important part of the research. Accordingly, sensory experience mobilized during the interview was the aim of the analysis, producing elements of a contemporary and political field.Considering the outline of those experiences, the sensory experience became significant to characterize a political experience since it allows the emergence of new sensibilities. This hypothesis is related with the concept of politics in Gilles Deleuze's thought.From that point, political experience can be considered a kind of posture, for or against events. Therefore, the idea of political is connected to the emergence of multiple sensibilities; it becomes far from the idea of awareness process and opens the field to investigate subjective process engendered in the events.The previous study presents itself in another field - the process of formal education. Which practices can be potentiated generating sensory experiences, thus ethical and political postures?Accordingly, the present research intends to deepen the idea of sensory experience by studding the effects from the proposal of listening groups to different people related to formal school. The clinical perspective will be continued as outlined in previous study. It is considered it as an important strategy to achieve sensibilities.
