Resumo: | This paper aims to investigate the problematization of civil war as a political paradigm in Giorgio Agamben’s thought, seeking, at first, to approach the paradoxical position of homo sacer’s as an arcaic figure whereby the vulnerability of life rest under the sovereign decision, exposing the proximity between sovereing power and the biopower since ancient times, through the exception relation. Next, we’re going to advance in the problematization of the state of exception, based on two categories interposed by Agamben: on the one hand, the concentration camp paradigm, or the field, which, in addition to determining an exception structure of a historical period, or from a specific context, delimits emergency records emerging from the global horizon, as in refugee and stateless flows, threats of terrorism and economic crises, endless civil wars – whether in Palestinian territories colonized by Israeli forces or in the Brazilian peripheries – a context, finally, plunged into a permanent war plot. On the other hand, we will appeal to the concept of stasis to analyze the civil war in ancient Greece as a political paradigm, through the dissolution between the oikos and the polis, or rather "politicizing" the oikos and "economizing" the polis, making indiscernible the public and private, the internal and external, and finding in the war against terror, in the indiscernibility between police actions and the military actions, it’s contemporary counterpart. Keywords: Giorgio Agamben. War. State of exception. Biopower. Stasis. |

The civil war as a political paradigm in Giorgio Agamben’s thought: from the state of excepction to the stasisA guerra civil como paradigma (bio)político em Giorgio Agamben: do estado de exceção à stasisThis paper aims to investigate the problematization of civil war as a political paradigm in Giorgio Agamben’s thought, seeking, at first, to approach the paradoxical position of homo sacer’s as an arcaic figure whereby the vulnerability of life rest under the sovereign decision, exposing the proximity between sovereing power and the biopower since ancient times, through the exception relation.

Keywords: Giorgio Agamben. War. State of exception. Biopower. Stasis.O presente trabalho tem por escopo investigar a problematização da guerra civil como paradigma político no pensamento de Giorgio Agamben, procurando, num primeiro momento, abordar a posição paradoxal do homo sacer enquanto figura arcaica por meio da qual a matabilidade da vida se dá através da decisão soberana, expondo a proximidade entre o poder soberano e o biopoder desde tempos remotos, através da relação de exceção. Em seguida, avançaremos na problematização do estado de exceção, tendo por base duas categorias interpostas por Agamben: por um lado, o paradigma do campo de concentração, ou campo, que, para além de determinar a estrutura de exceção de um período histórico, ou de um contexto específico, designa os recortes de exceção que emergem do horizonte global contemporâneo, imerso em fluxos de refugiados e apátridas, em ameaças de terrorismo e crises econômicas, em guerras civis intermináveis – seja nos territórios palestinos colonizados pelas forças israelenses, seja nas periferias brasileiras –, um contexto, enfim, mergulhado num enredo bélico permanente. Por outro lado, recorreremos ao conceito de stasis para analisar a guerra civil na grécia antiga como paradigma político que, dissolvendo os limites entre a oikos e a polis, ou, melhor dizendo, “politicizando” a oikos e “economicizando” a polis, torna indiscerníveis público e privado, interno e externo, e encontra na conjuntura da guerra contra o terror e na indiscernibilidade entre ações policiais e intervenções militares o seu correlato contemporâneo.
