Grounded on the concept of governmentality, developed by Michel Foucault, the paper aims at discussing educational praxis in contemporaneity, First, the characterization of the concept is introduced as an analytical tool for an ontology of the present. After, modern school is historically studied as a “governmentality machine”. Finally, governmentality is linked to educational praxis in the contemporary control society. It is concluded that educational praxis in contemporaneity operates as device that works in accordance with the governmentality forms of the control society, helping capture not anymore docile bodies but flexible ones, well adjusted to the emergent social needs.
