ABSTRACT
The article focuses on genealogical history, highlighting the main categories mobilized by Michel Foucault and considered as alternative tools to produce meaning about diverse events. It then explores Foucault’s appropriations in the History of Education, from the set of articles published in the Revista Brasileira de História da Educação [Brazilian Journal of the History of Education] from 2001 to 2021. This course of analysis arose from the desire to think Foucault as a classic who, by undergoing (de)formations, can contribute to the emergence of other interpretative emphases in educational studies.
