Description
Summary:This article contributes to the genealogy of compulsory education by analysing, through the example of the Belgian education system, the convergence process of various modes of subjectification in educational institutions. These modes, which were initially autonomous, coalesced at the turn of the twentieth century around the notion of “social defense”.
