BLASCO EJARQUE, José Luís; TIRADO, Francisco  and  ROVIRA MARTORELL, Joan. Citizen Science and New Relations of Power and Control. Nómadas [online]. 2021, n.55, pp.95-109.  Epub Aug 18, 2022. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n55a6.

This article analyzes the role of citizen science as a post-biopolitical (psychopolitical) dispositive of domination and subjectivation in citizen scientific practices within the neoliberal societies of the 21st century. In this sense, it analyzes how the NBIC (nano, bio, info, and cogno) convergence establishes a technoscientific historical present in which new articulations of power and control relations take form. It concludes with the consideration that psychopolitics is revealed as a paradigm of domination within performance societies, which would encourage development models related to open or citizen science.

Keywords : Citizen Science; Biopolitics; Psychopolitics; NBIC; Dataism; Neoliberal Societies.
