Abstract
In this study, we investigate the influence of Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophy on the debate about governmentality, the analytics of the subject and the practices of the self. The first part of the paper discusses the disciplinary techniques and the government of the body; the second one discusses the techniques of the self and the immaterial government. The argumentation exposes the composition of a discourse that conceives education and curriculum as a set of control mechanisms, multidisciplinary knowledge and discursive technologies that work to manage, to normalize and to supervise subjective processes. Finally, we emphasize the increasing flexibility, immateriality, and decentralization of the dispositifs of the government.
