Abstract:
Meu objetivo nesta pesquisa é entender a noção de \"corpo próprio\" pensada por Merleau-Ponty nas suas primeiras obras. Trata-se de uma noção \"cara\" ao filósofo, levando-o a questionar e a dialogar tanto com a filosofia quanto com a psicologia, fisiologia e a psicanálise de sua época. De qualquer modo, é a partir da descrição deste conceito que veremos como o filósofo pôde sugerir uma subjetividade sem plena determinação de si, que nos remete a um sujeito corporal em relação com o mundo, com o outro e consigo mesmo. Desta descrição, irei seguir um desdobramento específico deste conceito: a \

Abstract:
In opposition to theories of power which focus on the domination of one group by another, Michel Foucault coined the term "biopower" to refer to the ways in which power manifests itself in the form of daily practices and routines through which individuals engage in self-surveillance and self-discipline, and thereby subjugate themselves. Biopower is a useful concept for medical anthropology because it focuses on the body as the site of subjugation, and because it highlights how individuals are implicated in their own oppression as they participate in habitual daily practices such as the self-r

Traditionally, much criminological research has focused on male complexities of confinement, sidelining the experiences of federally and especially provincially incarcerated women in Canada.

Abstract:
The denial of the access to abortion has been addressed as a human rights issue. This thesis is based on a MFS- study with the aim to investigate women’s experiences of power and resistance in the movement for legalization of abortion in Argentina. The material for this thesis has been gathered by conducting semi-structured interviews with Argentinian women advocating for the right to abortion. Embodiment theory, Butler’s performative theory on assembly and theories on resistance are used in order to elicit the body’s role in the experiences of power and resistance. It is concluded that the bo

The strategies that investigate performance (Taylor, 2003) and performactivity of acts (Butler, 2003) create communication forms that privilegiate singular aspects of subjectivity.

Abstract:
Este artículo discute los usos de la historia en la novela El Señor Presidente de Miguel Ángel Asturias y propone que esta es la primera novela latinoamericanaque formaliza una elaborada teoría ficcional del poder, que se sustenta en un control social interiorizado y en la capacidad ilimitada de preguntar a todos los cuerpos. De este modo, el control invisible puede materializarse en la ilusión de la libertad y en escenas de tortura que revelan la siniestra relación entre la verdad y el poder. Mediante el análisis detallado y la lectura minuciosa (close reading) de ciertas escenas clave de la
