- Abstract
This paper describes the police as a bioeconomic apparatus of power. Based on documental research, the article advances that argument by scrutinizing the case of Paraná Seguro Units (UPS), a public security program which took place in Curitiba, Brazil, between 2012 and 2015. On one hand, analyzing the UPS program allowed us to extend the weberian boundaries of policing studies, which commonly reduces policing logics to a repressive and negative version of power exercise. On the other hand, the socioeconomic governmental initiatives which came along with UPS and police acting suggested a non-repressive and constitutive model of power as an emergent policing logics. In the analysed case the policing practices were assembled to urban, social and labor reconfigurations, indicating correspondences among the functionings of power and control apparatuses and biocapitalism. Documental and empirical findings were evaluated through Foucauldian and post-Foucauldian theoretical categories leading to rethink the police as a bioeconomic apparatus of power.
