Abstract

I intend to reflect on the meaning of freedom as it is transformed into a kind of immune device. To this end, I explore its links with liberalism and neoliberalism, according to Michel Foucault's analytical perspective, that is, as a gradient of intelligibility to biopolitics; which allows us to understand the immunitarian dimension that the neoliberal notion of freedom assumes and its consequences in a radicalization of the nihilistic drift that founds the community. Although quite briefly, I try to suggest the importance of building other bonds in which otherness, in its difference, would be fundamental to conceiving another notion of freedom and community.
