The article discusses the effects of the educational market in Chile on the subjectivation of young people in their pass from high school to higher education and/or labor market. With a theoretical approach that combines Foucault’s concepts of governmentality and subjectivation, and the Marxist tradition regarding commodification, 40 semi-structured panel interviews of young people from two regions are analyzed under a qualitative scheme. It is concluded that the educational trajectories suppose a highly constituent experience of subjectivity at the same time alienating, giving rise to a subjective malaise that expresses both the problem of educational segregation and the existential crisis with the extreme objectification of life time that market education imposes.
