The aims of this article is to discuss the war strategies in peripheral territorialities, operating in the production of new non-intense forms of lethal violence in Brazil, taking the city of Fortaleza as an empirical example and uses Achille Mbembe's notion of necropolitics as the main conceptual operator. At first, brings theoretical reflections from the dialogs that Mbembe weaves with Foucault, Agamben, Arendt and Fanon. Secondly, parses as "war machines" engender "death zones, being the link between discipline, biopolitical production and regulation/management of a "do die" feature of colonial occupation today. With this, we point out how the escalation of deadly violence in the urban margins expressed your condition of contemporary colonies, in which racionalitation processes maximize precariousness of black youth bodies, under the foundation of perpetuation of enmity.
