Conspiracy and naked life The X-Files, I want to believe: possible world or present world?. anagramas rumbos sentidos comun. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.31, pp.91-112.

This article problematizes, in general, the conspiracy as a fundamental political and narrative structure of Modernity. Through a film analysis of the series The X-Files, I want to believe, we propose to reveal how the topic of the conspiracy, on a superficial level, is an articulator of the plot of the series, but at a deep and broad level, we understand conspiracy as an articulating strategy of modern life and, in this context, of bio-political control. Thus, the article shows how the argumentative structure of the series proposes plots and characters through which governmental power intervenes in bodies and space, removes and allows life, distorts reality, informs and misinforms. Everything is part of a global strategy of conspiracy and concealment of the truth. In conclusion, the television series allows us to observe the hypervisibility and intervention regimes of the current government machine and is, to this extent, a point of entry to recognize current social and political problems.

Palabras clave : television series; cinema; conspiracy; naked life; control; The X-Files; state of emergency; bio-politics.
