Internalized and na- turalized such procedures as part of individual and collective culture, habits and mores of contemporary so- ciety. Modernity is a privileged historical period to study the mechanisms of power-knowledge of the processes of subjection of modern man, with various procedures and techniques of government itself. From the perspective of education and standardization of time is the present study, which analyzed the contribution of Marc-Antoine Jullien (1775-1848), especially his works for the employment of time, which set out prin- ciples of writing practices of self, subjectivity the subject and the construction of individual and social me- mory.
