Public Policies, a Discursive Movement: “Regime of Truth” to Demonstrate

Abstract

Public policies are the most refined form of state action, to the point that they are considered as the framework of an effective governance. The assumption is that from the moment of its creation, the governmental problematic finds more explicit ways of solving public problems. In perspective, it is necessary to investigate the discrepancies and inconsistencies of the public action, which requires a proper conceptual analysis in order to develop other positions, mainly epistemological, to address the crisis of governance. To this we must add that, currently, public policies are considered the most refined way of “construction” of a different social and political actor and, therefore, a subjective practice that aims to create a subject of sociopolitical rights and duties. Its formulation and implementation is developed on this hypothesis, a kind of “liberating” stage. From this perspective the focus of analysis has shifted to other “places”, seeking new insights and a subjectivity that is contemporary with new versions of the market.
