ABSTRACT

A form of biopower emerges that addresses the interplay between freedom and danger: security. [It] consists of sets of apparatuses that aim to regulate within reality, because the field of intervention is a series of aleatory events that perpetually escape command…. Security can be understood as a break with discipline and an intensification of biopolitics … [it] is dispersive … [its] object-targets are processes of emergence that may become determinate threats…. [As] production extends to all of life, all of life must be secured.1
