The political governmentality in Foucault’s thought

Vol 11, No 1 (2010) • Filosofia Unisinos - Unisinos Journal of Philosophy

Autor: Cesar Candiotto

Resumo:

This article intends to show that the publication of Michel Foucault’s courses, Sécurité, territoire, population and Naissance de la biopolitique, given at Collège de France, shows not only a change of his analytics of power, but also the problematization of a new background for the continuation of his thinking. This background is the concept of governmentality. This neologism allows Foucault to analyze domains such as Arts of government, Liberalism and Neo-liberalism.
