abstract:
This short essay aims to analyze the imaginary of the new health emergency (Covid-19) and the power relationships revealed by it. Such an unprecedented state of exception leads to the surfacing of a secularised symbolism based on the concepts of dread and redemption, as an expression of new forms of command and obedience typical of biopower and its distinctive production of consent.
