Disciplina e segurança em michel foucault: A normalização e a regulação da delinquência

Abstract

In this paper, we study how the techniques of disciplinary power presented by Foucault in Discipline and Punish (1975) relate to the apparatuses of security, analyzed in Security, territory, population (1978). Foucault's thesis in1975 is that the circularity of delinquency is produced and increased by disciplinary practices. But only from1978, in the course Security, territory, population, one can deduce that this circularity conceptually corresponds to a way of government that allows and tolerates delinquency in their reality and in its course to then control it through the use of apparatuses of security that reinforce the power of the state. The conclusion is that in this case, the apparatuses of security do not replace the disciplines, but its reconfigure them from a new economy of power.
