Dispositivo drogas e governamentalidade neoliberal: funções estratégicas para o exercício do poder sobre os corpos e a população
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-03-14) LIMA FILHO, Eduardo Neves; CHAVES, Ernani Pinheiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5741253213910825; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8988-1910; GOMES, Marcus Alan de Melo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0371519214729478
The present study is developed with the objective of analyzing the strategic role of the drug device in neoliberal governmentality evidenced in Brazil and its strategic function for the exercise of power over bodies, over the population and the exercise of the power of death. In order to do so, itstarts from the theoretical-methodological tools developed by Michel Foucault, especially his analysis of power, including his studies on discourses, and his research on neoliberal governmentality. Thus, the work starts from the idea that it is possible to make use of Michel Foucault's research on power and knowledge, as well as his studies on neoliberal governmentality to understand the dynamics of the fight against drugs in the neoliberal context and its role in the exercise of referred to dynamics of exercising power. Based on the Foucauldian approach, the research problem corresponds to asking to what extent the drug device is managed in the neoliberal context from its usefulness to satisfy certain needs of groups that hold capital, enabling the control of bodies, the population and the exercise of the power of death. To answer the question, the work begins with a critical description of the methodological instruments developed by Michel Foucault, especially in his studies on knowledge and his analysis of power, which are fundamental for thinking about policies to combat drugs from the relations of power and forms of resistance in the neoliberal context. Then, it analyzes neoliberalism and its relations with biopower, emphasizing that Foucault does not reduce his analysis of neoliberalism to an exclusively economic issue and that is what is specific and singular in his position. It also deals with the anti-drug policy, starting with an analysis of drugs as a device in the Foucauldian sense. Then, a genealogical analysis of drug prohibitionism is carried out, without the intention of carrying out an approach that universalizes the issue. The analysis takes place through a cut aimed at understanding the current policy of drug repression in Brazil - without ignoring the strong international influences - from the ruptures that have occurred over the years and the conjunctural changes in the relations of power and resistance, especially since the rise and consolidation of neoliberalism. Finally, the strategic role of the war on drugs policy in neoliberal governmentality is demonstrated, especially in Brazil, concluding that the drug device is able to enable and justify the exercise of disciplinary power, biopolitics and sovereign power, especially over certain vulnerable groups because of its economic condition constantly worsened and precarious by neoliberal policies, as well as it is demonstrated that the changes, triggered in the neoliberal context, regarding the exercise of State racism and its intimate relationship with drug policy, which makes it possible to exercise the power of death on those groups.

Ética do diálogo e o princípio político do comum
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-09-16) BRITO, Suellen Lima de; SANTIAGO, Maria Betânia do Nascimento; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2640094533229805; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8822-1806; VERBICARO, Loiane Prado; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4100200759767576; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3259-9906
This study aims to analyze the dialogical ethics proposed by the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber (1923) and the political principle of the common, formulated by the authors Pierre Dardot and Christian Laval (2017) as an alternative to understanding the problem of relationships in contemporary neoliberal society. Buber, in his main work entitled I and Thou (1923), presents the two words-principles that underlie our existence and are inherent to the human condition, namely: the I-Thou and the I-It. The first presents itself as a dialogic relationship, an encounter between two beings mutually in an ontological character, and the second as a monogical relationship, based on experiences, use, and the use of individuals as mere objects, with an objectifying character. In this way, if the world of It predominates and guides the ways in which men relate to each other, this would lead them to perdition, as such men would be lost within themselves, that is, drastically disconnecting them from interhuman relationships in the circle of dialogic coexistence, causing a profound loss of the feeling of community, solidarity, with commodified and impersonal relationships. Considering this scenario, the political principle of the common appears as an alternative to the neoliberal system of control, as it is a political principle whose rationality is collective, anti-capitalist, and a common social sphere belonging to all, where there is no mischaracterization of the humanity of men. In this sense, the political principle of the common joins the Buberian in facing the challenges that are configured with the neoliberal system. From this diagnosis, our objective is to elucidate the need to rescue the dialogicity of relationships in contemporary times, seeking possible paths for a healthy and humanized society, proposing as an alternative the inspiration on the ethics of dialogue formulated by Martin Buber together with the political principle of the common, formulated by the authors Pierre Dardot and Christian Laval, as a new worldwide anti-capitalist rationality where the social imaginary is a reality of collective practices, opposing, therefore, the neoliberal rationality that maintains its system at the expense of a decharacterized experience in the name of the success of the capital, where it explores, instigates and legitimizes a feeling of competition to the detriment of solidarity and companionship, deepening the contemporary individualism. This study involves relating authors belonging to different philosophical traditions through exploratory, philosophical, and bibliographic analyzes to demonstrate that, unlike neoliberalism, the dialogical ethics and the political principle of the common aspire to a healthy and dialogic experience.

Vulnerabilidade, luto e interdependência: reflexões críticas ao individualismo neoliberal a partir de Judith Butler
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-10-23) LOBATO, Lílian Gabriela Rodrigues; AGGIO, Juliana Ortegosa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5290499042057589; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6283-4797; VERBICARO, Loiane Prado; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4100200759767576; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3259-9906
The present dissertation proposes to investigate the critique of the neoliberal morality of self-responsibilization formulated by the American philosopher Judith Butler based on the concept of primordial vulnerability — a dimension of our existence transpassed by ambivalences with strong exploratory potential, which nevertheless substantiate the conditions of possibility for our physical, psychic and social survival. To achieve this objective, our footsteps are articulated around two main discussions, namely: 1) the relationship between the neoliberal ideal of self-sufficiency with the political inducement of precariousness and unequal distribution of public mourning and 2) the ethical-political potential of public mourning to protect the links of interdependence, weakened by the neoliberal morality. At the first moment, we exhibit how neoliberalism is a rationality that shapes the State, society, and our own subjectivity per the market imperative, emptying the state of social welfare and the feeling of collective solidarity, deepening even the vulnerability of historically subaltern subjects through precarization policies that attribute a differentiated valuation to life resulting in a selective commotion in the face of death. At this point, we elucidate how mourning operates as a descriptor of the intelligibility of life, subverting the commonly held understanding that the value of life perdures since birth. At the second moment, we exhibit how the experience of loss awakens us to the opacity and dispossession, inherent to our constitutive relationality, disrupting the fantasy of the autonomous subject that holds full control over himself. In the face of the recrudescence of neoliberal agendas experienced in Western democracies, we aim to reflect on the limits and possibilities of Butler's proposition for an ethics of vulnerability intended to protect the links of interdependence. Hopefully, this research can collaborate with the construction of narratives that broaden our imaginative capacity in contrast to neoliberal nihilism.
