Latin American regional sciences and technologies currently have crisis effects, differentiated from those that have distinguished the changes in the "normal sciences" (Kuhn, 1969). In this crossover of epistemic inflection emerges the "decolonial turn" towards the creation of technosciences (González Casanova, 2017), in convergence with the contributions of Latin American thought (Quijano, 2009 Lander: Mignolo, 2007). Thus, this article will place in analysis, from the perspective of investigative co-production (Bialakowsky, et al., 2013), the foundations and keys of said emergencies in relation to praxis aimed at challenging the hegemonic social intellect.

This paper work constitutes an attempt to make complex the analysis matrix about the implications of the extractive industry in Latin America; worning about differents extralegal mechanisms on wich is based the model itself. To achieve such content we appeal to some concepts and analysis axes made out by a french thinker, Michel Foucault, such as: governmentality, biopolitics, power networks, subject, and subjectivity. For the written preparation they were taking into account other literature sources, especially those books and scientific publications made by latinamerican intellectuals critical to the extractive model as they are among other the works of: Alberto Acosta, Maristella Svampa, Eduardo Gudynas, Edgardo Lander, Luis Tapia y Raúl Zibechi.

This article, as a result of research, aims to provide key elements, which take into account the links between the free trade and the permanent violation of the human rights and even with crimes against humanity; situations that do not constitute themselves in isolated, circumstantial facts, which are the product of the apparent simultaneousness between crime in abstract, developed in areas where strategic projects for the global economy are projected and developed, but in a matter related, caused, sustained by both national and international economic, political groups that make a profit with these mega-projects.

The article examines the interaction of representation and experience in relationships between body and identity in Latin American history. Through analyzing some discourses about the body, it explains the links between intimate and private activities whose function is to embody and express the social division of symbolic work and its ties to social representations of the body, social orders and their reproduction. This practical-symbolical activity is a fundamental tool in the techniques for governing life: It shows the mechanisms used for training governable subjects and reflects the conditions of colonial modernity as a broad context of biopower in Latin America.
