Biopolitics, State racism, Bare Life, Foucault, AgambenAbstract
In this study, we examined the concept of biopolitics, a concept developed by Michel Foucault, in the late 1970s, in order to analyze the linkages between the relations of power and life, between the political processes and the demographic management of populations. Furthermore, we regard the appropriation of this reflection made by Giorgio Agamben in Homo Sacer: Sovereign Power and Bare Life (2002), which investigates the implications of inserting "bare life in the political sphere", conceived as "originating" core of sovereign power.
