Resumo: This article aims to understand Foucault's theoretical and political positions, which were built from 1978 on, with the establishment of governmentality and subjectivity notions as an axis of his researches. It discusses historical aspects that are related to his theoretical shift into government's subject, biographical sources, and author texts, which were published between 1978 and 1980. Second, it analyzes an interview about the crisis of the social security system, seeking to understand his position about the issue. It concludes that Foucault used both Marxist and neoliberal contributions, avoiding to reduce politics into a confrontation between the two projects, but considering it as a complex field of plural strategies. The subjectivity places at the interface between politics and ethics.

O artigo visa compreender as posições teórico-políticas de Foucault construídas a partir de 1978, com o estabelecimento das noções de governamentalidade e subjetividade como eixos de suas pesquisas. Discute-se aspectos histórico-institucionais relacionados ao seu deslocamento teórico na direção do tema do governo e seu afastamento da esquerda, fontes biográficas e textos do autor publicados entre 1978 e 1980. Em segundo lugar, analisa-se uma entrevista sobre a crise do sistema de seguridade social, buscando entender seu posicionamento em relação ao tema. Conclui-se que Foucault utilizou tanto de contribuições marxistas, quanto neoliberais, evitando reduzir a política ao enfrentamento entre dois projetos, mas considerando-a um campo complexo de estratégias plurais. A subjetividade coloca-se para Foucault na interface entre a política e a ética.
