INCLUSION PRACTICES BY CIRCULATION

ways of governing the population in open space

Abstract

This paper presents some discussions about the displacement operated on practices in/ exclusion developed over the history of the West. From Foucault's thinking, it is understood that the practices of inclusion (and exclusion) are, par excellence, government practices that operate in different ways on the conduct of the subjects. In this text, I argue that in the Contemporaneity is possible to see new forms of government that does not operate through the exclusion of subjects as in the Middle Ages, or for their imprisonment in confinement institutions, as in Modernity, but through inclusion practices that support the circulation of the subjects in open space, requiring thus new strategies for modulating of conduct of those who must transit outdoors. It is the production of an inclusive êthos that shapes the subjectivity of each and every one.
