Abstract

FAIR, Hernán. ''He who kills, must die.'' The discourse of the strong hand in present Argentina. anagramas rumbos sentidos comun. [online]. 2010, vol.8, n.16, pp.73-86. ISSN 1692-2522.

The article analyzes the new emergent discourse of insecurity in Argentina from the notion of bio-politics of Michel Foucault. According to him, the success of this type of discourse is due to the fact that it has managed to constitute itself in a new common sense. To that effect, it has counted with the help of reductionist arguments and a socio-cultural frame which power its force.

Keywords : Insecurity; Discourse; ''strong hand''; Bio-politics; Argentina.
