BENENTE, Mauro. Biopolitics, sovereignty and exception. A critical review of Giorgio Agamben's work. Rev. Fac. Derecho Cienc. Polit. - Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2019, vol.49, n.130, pp.202-224.  Epub 16-Set-2019. ISSN 0120-3886.  https://doi.org/10.18566/rfdcp.v49n130.a09..

After describing in detail the functioning of the disciplinary power, Michel Foucault advanced with less precision in the conceptualization of biopolitics, of a type of population regulation that reduces life to its biological dimensions. Retaking, yet also correcting these developments, Giorgio Agamben marked a structural relationship between sovereignty and life, mediated by the state of exception. In this work I am interested in remarking that the concepts of sovereignty and state of exception are not even applicable to Nazism, the only historical example analyzed by the Italian author.

Palavras-chave : Power; Sovereignty; Life; State of exception; Nazism.
