PAZOS, Abel P.. Technology, Sex, and Power: Biopolitical Approach to Pre-exposure Prophylaxis in the Spanish State. Nómadas [online]. 2021, n.55, pp.143-159.  Epub 19-Ago-2022. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n55a9.

This article considers the topic of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a type of biomedical intervention aimed at preventing HIV transmission. The author develops a map and traces, historically and conceptually, some biopolitical courses of PrEP as a sociotechnical dispositive in the structural framework of science, technology, and society. In addition, it proposes an approach in the light of contemporary theorizations regarding biomedicalization in the context of biocapitalism. As a conclusion, the article shows some challenges posed by the frameworks underlying these new approaches to serological risk within the Spanish State.

Palabras clave : Biocapitalism; Biomedicalization; Serological Debt; Pharmacopower; Necropower; PrEP.
