ABAL MEDINA, Paula. The Exile of Otherness: The Case of Wal Mart. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2007, vol.69, n.4, pp.683-727. ISSN 2594-0651.

In this article the notion of power dispositive is applied to the study of relations between capital and work in the Wal Mart supermarket company. Two central points are presented: firstly a multiplicity of power practices that are part of the different elements of the company's dispositive are described and analysed. Secondly the question of the subjectivation of capital and of the general and singular main line, that defines the studied relations.

Keywords : way of subjectivation; otherhood; control; discipline; resistances; power relations between capital and work.
