This article examines the tensions and contradictions in the relationship between academic education and market. It tries to show how propositions of the education reform policies have relied on the notion of curricular flexibleness, whose matrixes - resignified and applied to the educational field - guide such policies. Productive re-structuring, State reform, job market, and academic education are, therefore, taken as interrelated key categories. First, this study focuses on the productive re-structuring and job market in the globalization context. Then its focus changes to the academic education reform, above all to the national curricular guidelines. At last, it approaches flexibleness, market, and autonomy as determining elements of the paradigms which define professional profiles since they taken as a reference to the curricular planning in academic education institutions.

Keywords : State reform; Academic teaching; College education; Flexibleness; Market; Autonomy.
