USECHE ALDANA, Oscar. Power, Body and Resistance. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2017, vol.38, n.82, pp.75-100. ISSN 2007-9176.  https://doi.org/10.28928/revistaiztapalapa/822017/atc3/usechealdanao.

This article proposes to analyze a relational field constituted by the forces that make up bodies, the devices that power generates to capture and incorporate its potency, and the resistances that emerge as lines of flight from domination. The body is conceived as a framework of intensities and of powers put into play that recompose themselves to the extent that they are able to connect with desire. The body is not independent of its relations: its changes and movements emerge in the tension between voluntary servitude and disengagement that can only be produced by resistance.
