Resumen

CARVALHO, Beatriz Fernanda et al. Covid-19 and body control: New reasons for the fear of the other. Forum Sociológico [online]. 2021, n.39, pp.31-41.  Epub 07-Dic-2021. ISSN 0872-8380.  https://doi.org/10.4000/sociologico.10015.

The Covid-19 pandemic resulted in the imposition of drastic measures of social detachment in countries around the world, so that each nation chose to respond to the virus in the way it considered appropriate, taking action to control bodies with different consequences. In Brazil, social distance policies were impacted by factors resulting from the urban social crisis, increasing the vulnerability of a specific group of the population. In addition, the fear of contagion here is associated with insecurity, developing crises that accelerate processes already underway. This article seeks, in this sense, to discuss the construction of individualistic processes that result in the feeling of fear of the other (by the origin of the other and the origin of fear) by micropowers that, articulated to the State and government policies, naturalize surveillance devices showing biocontrol systems and the consequences of this regime in social relations under the pandemic context in Brazil.

Palabras clave : Covid-19; fear of the other; control of bodies; biopolitics.
