Using Foucauldian theorizations as analytical inspiration, this thesis presents a critical diagnosis of current government technologies that operate in the constitution of High School teaching in contemporary Brazil. The centrality of techno-scientific knowledges, the emergence of the cognitive capitalism conditions, as well as the insertion of the teaching profession into the contemporary bio-economy networking, have been considered as possibility conditions for the constitution of High School teaching. The study, which has taken High School teaching as its investigation problem, analyzes 45 issues of Carta na Escola magazine published between 2005 and 2010. This magazine, published by Editora Confiança, is meant to teachers working at that level of Basic Education. The analytical approach to this material has attempted to acknowledge it as a surface of inscription of todays prevailing social discourses. Governmentality, a concept created by Michel Foucault in the late 1970's, has been used as an analytical tool. Such concept has been considered as a methodological notion, i.e. as an instrument to operate on a certain problem. The research findings have been organized from the notion of technologies of government. Thinking from that perspective has implied the constitution of a government analysis. It is suggested that such technologies may be optimizing, since they both privilege the conduction of teaching actions towards high performance levels and propose the qualification of performances in contemporaneity. Finally, in this thesis, three technologies have been shown in an articulated, productive action: innovation as a permanent pedagogical investment, interactivity as a way of thinking, and community as an intervention space. The conjunction of those three technologies of government - innovation, interactivity and protections - signalizes the teaching constitution at this level of Basic Education in contemporary Brazil - a kind of teaching that is both politically useful and economically productive.CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
