BENENTE, Mauro. Disciplinary Power and Law in Michel Foucault. Critical notes. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.2, pp.213-242. ISSN 0124-0579.  https://doi.org/10.12804/esj16.02.2014.07.

One of the most interesting contributions of Michel Foucault's reflections during the 1970s has been to account for productive operation of power relations. In this paper I try to show that although Foucault has postulated a productive functioning of power relations, he maintained a purely repressive look on the law. Also, I try to show that the reduction of the law to a mere prohibition prevented him from giving account of the role of law in disciplinary societies.

Palabras clave : power; discipline; law; repression; prohibition.
