SUMMARY:

This work aims to problematize the concept of bare life as lives that can be killed with impunity by sovereign decision, as initially formulated by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben. To do so, we define as the object of analysis the texts of the Homo Sacer project, with emphasis on the first volume: Sovereign Power and Bare Life (1995). The thesis to be defended investigates the relationship between life and politics when, divided and articulated through the power of the State, life (human, citizen, conscious, and free) becomes a qualified form, while giving rise to another formless (identity-less) and with impunity disposable: bare life. In this context, politics becomes a bio-necropolitics, that is, a calculated organization and management of individuals' lives and deaths, justified as a politics of exception. Thus, we perceive that, in Agamben, bare life materializes in the space called the "camp," which becomes the primary political paradigm of the West. Following this perspective, our hypothesis is that this concept of bare life has its paradigmatic roots in the figure of Homo Sacer in ancient Western civilization, but with modernity, it becomes present in the life of the enslaved during colonialism, extending its contemporary limits in the figure of the Muselmann in Auschwitz. It is worth noting that the political-philosophical problem arises when we problematize this life from Western Modernity, based on the colonialism-Nazism-fascism triad. With this, we engage in discussions of Political Philosophy, seeking to contribute to the undeniable fact that all existing forms of the camp constitute crimes against humanity and constant factories of lives that can be killed with impunity.
