Slippery as Fish... but Already Caught? Secondary Students' Engagement with School Rules [Abstract]

Abstract

Drawing on nine focus groups with secondary students in southern Ontario, we investigated secondary students’ perceptions of, and experiences with, school codes of conduct and their application. While generally supporting the ‘big’ rules such as no weapons, students engaged more critically with minor ones. We drew on Foucault’s governmentality studies to discuss students’ successful compliance. We evaluated students’ contestation of the rules, rule ‐ breaking as potential resistance, and rule breaking as a manifestation of students’ desire. Although students challenge school rules, they are “already caught” within the dominant language that frames the rules and their top ‐ down application, with little sense of themselves as potent political actors. Key words : discipline, citizenship, resistance, secondary education D’apres neuf groupes de disccusion d’etudiants au niveau secondaire du sud de l’Ontario, nous avons enquete leurs points de vue et leurs experiences au sujet des reglements de leurs ecoles et leurs methodes d’application. Generalement, les etudiants sont en faveur des ‘grands’ reglements, tel que armes interdites, mais ils sont plus critiques envers les moins importants. D’apres les etudes de gouvernementalite de Foucault, nous discutons comment les etudiants reussissent a se conformer. Nous avons evalue la contestation des reglements par les etudiants, l’evasion des reglements comme resistance potentielle, et l’evasion des reglements comme manifestation des desirs des etudiants. Meme si les etudiants resistent les reglements, ils sont “deja pris” a l’interieur d’un language dominant qui encadre les reglements et leur application par les haut ‐ places. Ainsi, ils ont l’impression d’etre impuissants comme acteurs politiques. Mots cles: discipline, citoyennete, resistance, education secondaire
