This study is based on Foucault's thesis that the analysis of penal practices constitutes an angle for observation of the political anatomy. As consequence, transformations of penal systems under Neoliberalism would provide clues to understand some of its political codes. From this perspective,...

I28-R145-1428_oai2025-11-17 Calveiro, Pilar 2010-12-15 This study is based on Foucault's thesis that the analysis of penal practices constitutes an angle for observation of the political anatomy. As consequence, transformations of penal systems under Neoliberalism would provide clues to understand some of its political codes. From this perspective, the main characteristics of the current Mexican prison system are analyzed, as well as its practices and their effect on individuals subjected to imprisonment. In particular, the impact on bodies and their representation is explored, through material collected in interviews carried out with former prisoners. A comparative analysis is made between prisons of medium and high security, with the hypothesis that although they correspond to different models of state power exercise, they both nevertheless become articulated, configuring a complex and unique system that denotes distinctive features of political power in Neoliberal times. Este trabajo se sostiene en la tesis foucaultiana de que el análisis de las prácticas penales constituye un ángulo de observación de la anatomía política. En consecuencia, las transformaciones de los sistemas penales en el neoliberalismo proporcionarían pistas para entender algunas de sus claves políticas. Desde esta perspectiva se analizan las características principales del sistema penitenciario mexicano actual, sus prácticas y el efecto de ellas sobre los sujetos sometidos a encierro en las prisiones. Se trabaja, en especial, el impacto sobre los cuerpos y su representación en los discursos, a través de material recogido en entrevistas realizadas a ex prisioneros. Se hace un análisis comparativo entre las prisiones de seguridad media y máxima, bajo la hipótesis de que, aunque corresponden a diferentes modelos de ejercicio del poder estatal, sin embargo ambas se articulan configurando un sistema complejo y único, que denota rasgos distintivos del poder político en la era neoliberal. Este trabalho está sustentado na tese foucaultiana de que a análise das práticas penais constitui um ângulo de observação da anatomia política. Como consequência disso, as transformações dos sistemas penais no neoliberalismo proporcionarão as pistas para entender alguns dos pontos-chave políticos. Sob esta perspectiva analisamos as principais características do atual sistema penitenciário mexicano, suas práticas e seu efeito sobre os sujeitos submetidos ao encerro nas prisões. Trabalhamos, principalmente, no impacto sobre os corpos e sua representação nos discursos, através de material obtido em entrevistas realizadas a ex-prisioneiros. Foi feita uma análise comparativa entre as prisões de segurança média e máxima, sobre a hipótese de que, mesmo sendo parte de diferentes modelos do exercício do poder estatal, ambas estão articuladas de uma maneira que configura um sistema complexo e único, que denota traços distintivos do poder político na era neoliberal. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/1428 10.34096/cas.i32.1428 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/1428/1369 Cuadernos de antropología social; Núm. 32 (2010): Investigaciones en antropología política y jurídica; 57-74 1850-275X 0327-3776 Derechos humanos Sistema penitenciario Prisiones de máxima seguridad Cuerpos Neoliberalismo Direitos Humanos Sistemas penais Prisões de segurança máxima Corpos Neoliberalismo Human Rights Prison System High Security Prisons Bodies Neoliberalism Prison practices on bodies.

This study is based on Foucault's thesis that the analysis of penal practices constitutes an angle for observation of the political anatomy. As consequence, transformations of penal systems under Neoliberalism would provide clues to understand some of its political codes. From this perspective, the main characteristics of the current Mexican prison system are analyzed, as well as its practices and their effect on individuals subjected to imprisonment. In particular, the impact on bodies and their representation is explored, through material collected in interviews carried out with former prisoners. A comparative analysis is made between prisons of medium and high security, with the hypothesis that although they correspond to different models of state power exercise, they both nevertheless become articulated, configuring a complex and unique system that denotes distinctive features of political power in Neoliberal times. |
