Abstract

This review discusses the book entitled “Queer Theory: a learning by differences”, by Richard Miskolci, which discusses how the educational process is centered on a cisheteronormativo mode/model. It leads to a reflection on the way in which the teaching-learning system interferes and conditions social relations, which, directly or indirectly, pressure people's normalization. Concomitant to this, through the debate that involves Queer Theory, the researcher points to the urgent need to break this way of thinking, especially with regard to gender and sexuality.
