A toupeira e a serpente

The present work begins with the study of biopower, particularly since thetransformations of the current phase of capitalism. To do so, following the path of Foucault, in the traffic and contamination between sovereignty, discipline and biopower, questions the series of configurable elements of technologies directed to the "government of life", both in relation to the control of bodies and the population . Thus, analyzing two zoopolitical figures, life indexes, for Deleuze, the mole-snake, points to the profound mutation of capitalism as a biopolitical control society, especially by highlighting how the single, uninterrupted flow of information is managed for security purposes , risk) or immediate recovery (data). In other words, there are, on the one hand, biopolitical control algorithms that modulate information flows, filter and channel the mobility of individuals and populations and, on the other hand, create databases and information packets that describe consumer styles and ways of capturing life through free cooperation. Finally, the decisive factor in the evolution of biopower is flow control, which operates social management and management algorithms, producing a series of overlapping technologies for commercial, security, and military purposes.
