Resumo: |
Linked to the Criminology and Social Control research line of the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul s Graduation Program in Criminal Sciences, this dissertation inquires which and how apparatus operated knowledge and practices in order that the current status could be achieved, in which one s death has been controlled by medical technique in such a natural way that any resistant gesture has the potentiality to activate the penal system by announcing a crime against life. Making use of the biopolitics conceptual key, which has enabled a better understanding of modern human relations, and its deflection entitled thanatopolitics, a new social study reading is able to evidence a complex apparatus of the death economy. The first half of this essay analyzes the theoretical elaboration of these concepts through Michel Foucault s, Giorgio Agamben s and Roberto Esposito s writings. Timothy Campbell s thoughts, that have complemented a doctrinaire gap by bringing to light the relation between technique and life-and-death economy, are also examined. Intending to prove this question s relevance and topicality, and to present unprecedented interpretative suggestions to violent and misunderstood phenomena, the second chapter s first part re-examines, through thanatopolitical lens, several present-day events that reproduce a discursive and practical scheme of destruction of the other, whether naturalized (police violence, amnesic politics) or scandalous (rape, terrorism) to modern culture. Then, this study immerses in a brief history of the emergence of a biopolitical medicine, in the narrative of the 20th century medical revolutions, in the disclosure of a medical thanatopolitical horizon and in three evidences of this new life-and-death economy operability: the death against death (Illich), the pharmaceutical guidance of life and the interposition of medicine in the process of death through the technical complexity revolution. In the end, grounded on notorious judicial cases, it is reported how doctors and patients decisions and actions defied the technical and bureaucratic management of death by rifling suspended lives. |
