VEIGA-NETO, Alfredo. Governmentality and education. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2013, n.65, pp.19-42. ISSN 0120-3916.

In this text, my objective is to present and to problematize some of the possible connections between neoliberal governmentality and education, within the framework of links between displacements, overlap emphasis transformations, subsitutions, contituities and ruptures which can be observed in educational practices and policies. I also seek to sketch out a summary of publications in Brazil which deal with these connections. The first section of this text consists in a broad discussion about the concept of governmentality. In the second section, I tackle Michel Foucault's conceptions of liberalism and neoliberalism. In the third section, I discuss some ways in which Foucault's thinking in the political field resonates with the transformations currently being experienced by the contemporary world. In the fourth and final section, I make three comments of an educational nature about these transformations and connections.

Palabras clave : Governmentality; liberalism; neoliberalism; cognitive capitalism.
