The objective of this article is to assimilate the Discourse Analysis, according to Foucault, with the purpose of having this theoretical-methodological reference in the researches in Education. Based on the foucaultian perspective, the relation between discourse and power is elucidated, since for Foucault everything is practical and interconnected in the relations of power and knowledge. The discourse is more than the reference of things, as it allows a conceptual network that is its own. This study is justified due to the area of Education investigating and referring to the different discourses of segments of the school, such as: managers, teachers, students, employees, or even official texts on educational policies etc., that is, the diverse and deep perspectives to investigate things said. In order to facilitate the understanding of the Foucaultian theory, we sought to exemplify it with research related to the field of Education in general, as well as specific researches developed by research groups of the Education, Culture and Subjectivity Line of the Post-Graduate Program in Education of the Federal University of São Carlos.

Keywords : Research in education; Discourse analysis; Foucaultian perspectives..
