O DISPOSITIVO DO DESENVOLVIMENTO

Abstract

The present work starts from the concept of device in Agambem, with the contributions of Foucault, for the understanding of the logic of development as an ideological process that is organized from modernity and reaches contemporaneity. In order to do so, the proposals of the authors in question were analyzed, both on the concept of device and on concepts of biopolitics and desubjectivation, to support the understanding of the historical process of relations of power and control of societies, from the State, the constitutive institutions. of modernity and its political, economic and legal rationality, which affects the way of life of individuals and populations. As a methodology, the study presents itself in a qualitative and reflective analysis, with a theoretical-conceptual survey for the understanding of historical processes and subsequent comparison to aspects of contemporaneity. As a result, the understanding of the device as a concept is presented, and the development understood as a device historically constituted, mobilizing ideas, theories, institutions and considering that it is based on contemporaneity as a neoliberal ideological conception.
