This text discusses the changes in social relations which have led to the emergence of the concept of competence in discourse and practice in two spheres of the mediation of human sociability: work and education. Here, the concept of competence has substituted former concepts which had previously ordered social relations, such as qualification in the world of work and knowledge and erudition in the field in education. These concepts, however, have not disappeared. They have only lost their central position and acquired new configurations, now that they are associated with skills. Therefore the challenge of this discussion is to show the historical breakdown which constituted the centrality of the concept of skill in these two spheres and their implications for the formation of the worker’s subjectivity.Downloads
