biopolitics, Deleuze, Foucault, control societies, disciplinary societiesAbstract
This text aims to problematize the zoopolitical figures that Deleuze evokes regarding the adaptation of life, specifically life resistant to biopower, a term introduced by Foucault to allude to the transformations related to the capitalist system. Thus, the text is divided into two parts; In the first, an entry point is established in the relationship that Foucault makes between biopolitics and the meaning of "governing life." In the second part, a reflection is made from Deleuze on disciplinary control and control societies from the conceptual figures of the mole and the snake proposed by the author.
