Abstract
Para entender los efectos de
la modernidad en la organización de los
Estado‐naciones del siglo XIX, la catego‐
ría foucaultiana biopolítica es una he‐
rramienta ampliamente productiva para
pensar los discursos que atraviesan la
constitución de dichos territorios. Los
discursos literarios del siglo XIX, a nues‐
tro parecer, responden a las discusiones
biopolíticas sobre cómo ordenar los
cuerpos, los funcionamientos de estos y
las subjetividades que derivan de estos.
Las políticas estatales del siglo XIX, y los
discursos literarios subsidiarios, van a
llevar a postular, en consecuencia, for‐
mas de vida, pero sobre todo de extran‐
jería para el establecimiento del territo‐
rio nacional. A lo largo de textos como
los de Domingo Faustino Sarmiento,
Esteban Echeverría y Eugenio Cambace‐
res, podemos percatarnos de la articu‐
lación de quiénes constituyen el noso‐
tros y quiénes el otros. Estos discursos
decimonónicos recurrirán a la noción de
barbarie, afirmada como figura otra
excluida, para sedimentar la categoría
civilización como vidas vivibles. Julio
Cortázar y Osvaldo Lamborghini servi‐
rán para demostrar las persistencias o
declinaciones, en el siglo siguiente, del
modelo civilizatorio biopolítico. Para
dicho análisis, tomaremos la propuesta
foucaultiana y derivas, a partir de teóri‐
cos como G. Agamben, G. Giorgi, entre
otros
In order to understand the effects of modernity in nation‐state organizations through XIX century, we consider biopolitics –as a Foucauldian category– a thoroughly productive tool for the analysis of the discourses that constitute such territories. The nine‐ teenth‐century literary speeches, in our opinion, respond to the biopolitical debates on how to order the bodies, their functioning and the subjectivities that derive from them. The state poli‐ cies of the nineteenth century and the subsidiary literary discourses will con‐ sequently lead to pose lifestyles but, above all, foreign measures for the es‐ tablishment of the national territory. Throughout texts such as those of Do‐ mingo Faustino Sarmiento, Esteban Echeverría and Eugenio Cambaceres, we can realize the articulation of who constitute we and who constitutes the others. These nineteenth‐century dis‐ courses will resort to the notion of bar‐ barity, affirmed as another excluded figure, to sediment the category of civi‐ lization as living lives. Julio Cortázar and Osvaldo Lamborghini will help to demonstrate the persistence or decline of the biopolitical civilizing model in the following century. For such analysis, we will take the Foucauldian proposal and theories that stem from it from theo‐ rists such as G. Agamben, G. Giorgi, among others.
