Resumo: | In Foucault, the problem of power appears always referred to the materiality of the body, its characteristics and potentialities. With the concept of disciplinary power, he points out a power that individualizes the bodies aiming to make them useful and docile. Foucault also highlights a power that is exercised on the population (biopolitics), which recognizes the collectivity and intervenes on it, specifically about your bodily condition. From this theoretical framework described above, this study aims to analyze the path of increasing politicization of themes connected with the body and sexuality that have gained prominence throughout the 20th century and how these themes were incorporated into the daily debate of the populations, at least partially. From the methodological point of view, it is a qualitative and theoretical study that gathers definitions for the analysis of recurrent presence of body themes in different contexts of contemporaneity. Among the results obtained, we put that the qualifying characteristics of the living human body, such as gender, sexuality and age became the target of a permanent attention, whether in the form of knowledge production about them or even as object of sensitizing awareness that takes the body by its political dimension, thus, inscribing it in institutionalized policies and legislations. As a partial conclusion, it is stated that there is a far-reaching normative and valuation change under way, which has the sexed body as its center. |

The sexed body in power relationsEl cuerpo sexuado en las relaciones de poderO corpo sexuado nas relações de poderIn Foucault, the problem of power appears always referred to the materiality of the body, its characteristics and potentialities. With the concept of disciplinary power, he points out a power that individualizes the bodies aiming to make them useful and docile. Foucault also highlights a power that is exercised on the population (biopolitics), which recognizes the collectivity and intervenes on it, specifically about your bodily condition. From this theoretical framework described above, this study aims to analyze the path of increasing politicization of themes connected with the body and sexuality that have gained prominence throughout the 20th century and how these themes were incorporated into the daily debate of the populations, at least partially. From the methodological point of view, it is a qualitative and theoretical study that gathers definitions for the analysis of recurrent presence of body themes in different contexts of contemporaneity. Among the results obtained, we put that the qualifying characteristics of the living human body, such as gender, sexuality and age became the target of a permanent attention, whether in the form of knowledge production about them or even as object of sensitizing awareness that takes the body by its political dimension, thus, inscribing it in institutionalized policies and legislations. As a partial conclusion, it is stated that there is a far-reaching normative and valuation change under way, which has the sexed body as its center. En Foucault, el problema del poder siempre aparece referido a la materialidad del cuerpo, sus características y potencialidades. Con el concepto de poder disciplinario, él señala una vertiente individualizadora del poder, que actúa en los cuerpos con el objetivo de hacerlos dóciles y útiles. Foucault también pone de relieve un poder que se ejerce sobre la población (biopolitica), que reconoce la colectividad e interviene en ella, específicamente acerca de su condición de cuerpo. A partir de los puntos de referencia descritos anteriormente, este estudio pretende analizar el camino de creciente politización de temas relacionados con el cuerpo y la sexualidad que han ganado prominencia durante el siglo XX y que, de modo parcial, fueron incorporados en el debate diario de las poblaciones. Desde el punto de vista metodológico, es un estudio cualitativo y teórico que recoge los datos para el análisis de la presencia recurrente de las temáticas del cuerpo en diferentes contextos de la contemporaneidad. Entre los resultados obtenidos observamos que las características calificadoras del cuerpo humano vivo, tales como género, sexualidad y edad, se tornaran objeto de una atención permanente, sea en la forma de producción de conocimiento sobre las mismas, o aún como un objeto de una sensibilización que toma el cuerpo en su dimensión política, inscribiendo el cuerpo, en las políticas institucionalizadas e en las legislaciones. Como conclusión parcial llegamos a la constatación de que está en curso un cambio normativo y evaluativo de amplio alcance que tiene sobre la cuestión del cuerpo sexuado su eje principal.Em Foucault, a problemática do poder comparece sempre referida à materialidade do corpo, às suas características e potencialidades. Com a noção de poder disciplinar, ele assinala uma vertente individualizante do poder, que atua nos corpos tendo como objetivo torná-los úteis e dóceis. Foucault também coloca em evidência um poder que se exerce sobre a população (a biopolítica), que reconhece a coletividade e intervém sobre ela, especificamente sobre sua condição corporal . A partir dos referenciais acima descritos, este estudo tem por objetivo analisar a trajetória de crescente politização das temáticas ligadas ao corpo e à sexualidade que ganharam destaque ao longo do século XX e que, de modo parcial, foram incorporadas ao debate cotidiano das populações. Do ponto de vista metodológico, trata-se de estudo teórico e qualitativo que reúne subsídios para a análise da presença recorrente das tematícas corporais nos diferentes contextos da contemporaneidade. Dentre os resultados obtidos tem-se que as características classificatórias do corpo humano vivo, tais como gênero, sexualidade e faixa etária tornaram-se alvo de uma atenção permanente, seja na forma de produção de conhecimento sobre as mesmas ou ainda como objeto de uma sensibilização que toma o corpo em sua dimensão política inscrevendo-o, a partir daí, nas políticas institucionalizadas e nas legislações. Como conclusão parcial chega-se à constatação de que está em curso uma mudança normativa e valorativa de amplo alcance que tem na questão do corpo sexuado seu eixo principal.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2018-09-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionEstudo Teóricoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/interthesis/article/view/1807-1384.2018v15n3p5610.5007/1807-1384.2018v15n3p56Interdisciplinary International Journal - INTERthesis; Vol. 15 No. 3 (2018); 56-72Revista Internacional Interdisciplinaria INTERthesis; Vol. 15 Núm. 3 (2018); 56-72Revista Internacional Interdisciplinar INTERthesis; v. 15 n. 3 (2018); 56-721807-1384reponame:INTERthesisinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/interthesis/article/view/1807-1384.2018v15n3p56/37417Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Internacional Interdisciplinar INTERthesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarvalho, Paulo Roberto de2024-03-15T08:36:38Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/53398Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/interthesis/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/interthesis/oaiinterthesis@gmail.com||interthesis@cfh.ufsc.br||cimbalista@uol.com.br1807-13841807-1384opendoar:2024-03-15T08:36:38INTERthesis - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
