Social link and youth: listening to University

Abstract

This article is the result of research on social bond, modes of subjectivation and education that investigates the forms of malaise and psychological suffering in young students and seeks to contribute to the construction of possible coping strategies in educational institutions. We propose a reading of the forms of malaise and psychological suffering linked to social transformations today, such as the pressure of the neoliberal, individualist model, inspired by ideals of efficiency, productivity and performance, highlighting its consequences in the field of Education. Finally, seeking to articulate theoretical investigations with the 'listening' of the research field, we present the repercussions of the experience in a listening space directed at university students during the coronavirus pandemic.
