Abstract
BRITO ALVARADO, Leonardo Xavier and AGUILAR RODRIGUE, William Fredy. The body, between anthropological and technological view. Universitas [online]. 2017, n.26, pp.199-220. ISSN 1390-8634. https://doi.org/10.17163/uni.n26.2017.08.
The body, especially since modernity, has been the object of debates and theoretical budgets that have served as support for the application of a series of policies aimed at its control and domination. Many authors have thought that the body is a space for struggle, resistance to political powers established. Karl Marx and Michel Foucault, without being the only ones, have contributed the most in the construction of a path of reflection on the dynamics of struggle and resistance that subjects have placed on the body. In a capitalist context, it is necessary to weave ties about the body and subjectivities, since in them fall the policies of the body, life, and death.
