Resumo: |
Why is suicide primarily treated as a subject from health areas that often tend to describe it as a “taboo”? This was one of the main concerns that led to the development of this research. In order to contribute to a non-reducionist analysis of the phenomenon of suicide we turn to Foucault, to denature the fact that suicide is a topic primarily of investigation and intervention of the areas of health. In order to think about this problem from the perspective of Foucault’s writings, it was necessary to approach the theme in its political status from the clues that Foucault presents, investigating the changes in the political status of life and death in biopolitical reality. We conducted a study on the political status of the act and the discourse on suicide since the act and speech are conclusively overlapped. We investigate conditions of possibility of the ways of producting truths about suicide. It was possible to verify that the political statute of suicide changed mainly from the change of the political status of life in development of Technologies of biopolitics that have central concern the maintenance of life and the imperative of health. We find that just like death, suicide becomes hidden, interdicted, in a reality of political power that invests and medicalizes life, while disqualifying death. Suicide as well as life and death, is dealt with predominantly by knowledge of health and in this study we point out the implications of this reality beyond what appears to be socially naturalized |
