The main aim of the article is to introduce a contemporary sociological interpretation of financial markets. Financial markets became the subject of sociological analysis due to their increasing importance for the economy as well as a consequence of significant changes that are linked with their quick growth. One result of these changes is growing influence of the institutions of collective investment leading to the transformation of management's responsibility, processes of financial collectivization and creation of a new, invisible source of power. One of the analytical tools to examine the nature and dynamics of these changes is Michel Foucault's conception of formation of disciplinary society. The article also pays attention to some of the factors that participate in financial markets functioning but are not sufficiently reflected in the sociological research such as the social and political impact of economics and significance of the social networks.

The author´s analysis develops via the following five conceptual steps. The first step links up with Foucault’s analysis of techniques of “soft” discipline, which relates to “classical” reform pedagogy, in the transition period from the 19th to the 20th century. The second step thematises the shifts in these disciplinary techniques in the context of the crisis of the so-called “environments of enclosure”. Here there is a particular focus on Deleuze’s arguments concerning the emergence of a modern “society of control”. The third step considers the specific form of the “government of the social”, which Foucault approaches with the concept of governmentality. The fourth step aims to show that the current educational reforms can be understood as a “governmental strategy”. The fifth step, finally, thematises the inconsistency of governmental practices. It pursues the possibility that such practices advance, en passant or contrary to their aims, their own contradiction: the preparedness and capacity for critical opposition.
