This work, off the essayistic nature, intended to reflect on the current political confrontations in Latin America and particularly in Argentina. For this purpose we resort to a transdisciplinary perspective in which we receive contributions from history, sociology, political science and psychology. We presume, in this essay, on the premise that in Latin America there have been two matrices of thought (and its counterpart in shaping political forces) have been played ideological orientation and the ability to assign roles and hierarchies within each one of the Latin American societies: the liberal-democratic and nationalpopular. On this basis the current political confrontations trying to generate explanatory hypotheses to account for the reasons of partial reversals of popular forces in government leadership and, vice versa, the progress of restoration neoliberal-conservative, occurred in the region during the analyzed last months.

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.
