Abstract
Michel Foucault wrote about education as a control system of the population. Roger Deacon is an Honorary Lecturer in education and Honorary Research Lecturer in politics at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. He is researching the relevance and implications of the work of Michel Foucault for education. All his remarks lead to concerns about the idea of blockchain for corporate education, as the life of an individual may be registered from the very beginning throughout the whole educational system. As choices, even computer-driven ones, are biased, chances of exclusion are higher than the opposite. Even the peer-to-peer system, designed to give people a chance to be fairly evaluated, with a blockchain system may be circumvented. In this scenario, how should one think about corporate education? Would it be an opportunity to reframe an individual with the right skills, or simply a way to build a uniform brigade? Maybe the multiple skills of collective games could indicate the need for multiple intelligences in order to keep a corporate performing well.
