"The pedagogical caring as aid relationship". This article examines the theoretical-pedagogical plan of the concept of “care” (self-care, care of other, care of the world) in relation to the deep and native meaning of epimeleia heautou, emphasizing its value and actuality and the inseparable nexus with the ethics. On the furrow traced by Michel Foucault, the objective is to show that the capacity of taking care, as fundamental ethical act, allows to think a subjectivity that constitutes itself, rather than being constituted.
