Abstract

The article discusses global capitalism in context with the concept of governmentality and biopower by referring to the article “History of Concepts and the Ontology of Actuality," by philosopher Roberto Esposito. Topics discussed include the literature on globalization, the book "The Politics of Life Itself" by Nikolas Rose, the liberal concepts of autonomy, sovereignty, and the need for knowledge of self and individual self-government.
