Psicopolítica y Gobernanza en el Perú

Abstract

It is considered important to rethink psychopolitics, the role it plays at the global level and how it affects the governance of Peru. If before it was used for scientific purposes and in disciplines such as sociology, education, psychology, among others, today, it transcended the political and the purposes have been reversed. The present study set out to analyze how psychopolitics is exercised in the Peruvian governance of the XXI century. A qualitative analysis was performed using the inductive method; For data collection, the technique of observation, documentary and bibliographic review was used. Three categories were analyzed: biopower, psychotechnology, and corruption in governance; For data validation, triangulation was used. It was concluded that psychopolitics is misused to increase corruption and normalize it; In other words, governance is hampered by corruption, therefore, it does not interact with the population and civil society organized in participatory democracy, because they are increasingly detached from politics with little or no citizen participation.
