Discourse and biopolitics: subjectivities and resistance

Abstract

In order to problematize the relations between discourse and biopolitics, the table Discourse, Body, Biopolitics: the relations between discourse and biopolitics, composed by professors Atilio Butturi Junior, Maria de Fátima Lima Santos and Bruno Franceschini, mediated by Jair Zandoná, proposed a densely qualified journey in the concepts of biopower, biopolitics, necropolitics, subjectivation, resistance and persistence concerning life. Divided into three moments, the first intervention of the round table was given by Professor Atilio Butturi, entitled Tecnobiocuir. Subsequently, Fátima Lima disserted on a text of her own on Bio-necropolitics(s), counter-coloniality(ies) and the next day. Finally, an exposure was performed by Bruno Franceschini, who talked about Discourse, body and biopolitics: pink money and the Brazilian LGBTQ + art scene. This triad based on diversity, marks a reflective moment with current debates on population subjugation, bodies and subjectivations, having as ground the use of the language device.
