I documenti che orientano la professionalità dell’educatore della prima infanzia in Italia definiscono tale soggetto a partire dal paradigma del “professionista riflessivo”. Questo articolo intende problematizzare questa concezione, esplorando gli spostamenti possibili quando la nozione di riflessione viene interrogata alla luce dei presupposti postumani. La metodologia diffrattiva è adottata come strategia epistemologica capace di svelare la tendenza della riflessione a inscriversi nella pratica professionale come un’immanenza tautologica, riproducendo presupposti già consolidati e limitando il potenziale trasformativo dell’azione educativa. Si sostiene che la diffrazione agisca come dispositivo di (dis)articolazione, in grado di generare tensioni nei (con)fini stessi del costrutto della riflessività. Tale movimento produce una riconfigurazione affermativa dei processi educativi propri dei contesti della prima infanzia, come l’osservazione pedagogica, la relazione tra adulti e bambini e la costruzione dell’identità professionale, intesa come intreccio etico-onto-epistemologico in continua (ri)invenzione.
