Inclusion is a dominant discourse in the contemporary practices of education, and a challenge for professionals in the field of Psychology. This study presents an analysis of a psychologist's intervention in a state school in Curitiba. It aims to cast a light upon the intersubjective dimension of the schools' practices, constituted by the inclusion policies and the contradictions in confronting theses policies. The analysis was carried out based on Bakhtinian theories, which regard the school as an institution immersed in a social and historical totality, symbolically produced by the dialogism principle. We analyzed the records and the material collected in 2004 and 2005. The results revealed deafened relations in the school: the movement of social voices is characterized by the prevalence of monologism, present in the discourses of the actors within the institution at all levels. The analyzed practice pointed to a method of intervention and investigation, which aims to listen and to make the voices circulate, while producing, in the arena of voices, ways of recognizing the disruption in the relations of alterity. The ethical and political dimensions of the interventions presented themselves as a way of facing the contradictions in the discourses of inclusion.

Keywords : psychological intervention; inclusion; dialogism; education.
