| Yhteenveto: | The title of this collaboration refers to a famous text by Michel Foucault. In this case wedevelop the birth of the political virus. It has been debated since biopolitics since theappearance of Covid. The viral analogy has dominated the era long before.Every analogy, in turn, is in a position to evolve. It is necessary to accept the excessiveopenness of virality. We are in the presence of one of the events of natural selection: whena political virality defines the population.
We live in multiple pandemic situations. It's not just viral diseases that become pandemic.They have convinced us of the benefits and harshness of population surveillance.Foucault's biopolitics is conceived as a device with the power to "make" live and "let" die"to the population. From the political virus, "it is made to be born and it is watched tolive". That protection becomes self-surveillance. The virus-political device transmutesfrom self-care to self-surveillance.Life as zoé recovers spaces that are leaving the dissipation of bios. We move in referenceto the state of exception, within a general framework of broad freedoms, towardsintermediate freedoms. The non-place is reconverted into the opposite of neutrality. Thus,the airport is no longer a typical non-place to be a viral device.In the political virus, pandemiologists will be the new models of breeders, with thepossibility of overcoming the advance of digital technocrats. For pandemiologysomething else happens. The latter fill the gaps to intertwine endless plans. |
