The Authoritarian Downside Of A New Strategy.Foucault, Marcuse, And The Neoliberal Transformation

Resumen

A la luz de los recientes debates sobre el giro autoritario del neoliberalismo, este artículo se centra en las formas en que Foucault y Marcuse analizaron con ojo crítico la aparición de una nueva racionalidad política tras la crisis de la gubernamentalidad que
se produjo a principios de la década de 1970. Ambos pensadores señalaron la problemática relación entre la libertad liberal y la seguridad, pero mientras Foucault tendía a describir el neoliberalismo como un arte indirecto de gobierno y no ponía en primer
plano sus aspectos conservadores y antiigualitarios, las reflexiones de Marcuse ayudan a aclarar cómo el surgimiento exitoso de estrategias neoliberales en respuesta a la impugnación del marco keynesiano y socialdemócrata de posguerra estuvo vinculado a la
movilización de una sensibilidad conservadora y autoritaria que tiende a resurgir cuando se cuestiona el funcionamiento de la gestión gubernamental de la sociedad.
