SANTOS, Adriana Rosa Cruz. To end the judgment (of god): artaud, foucault and the ungovernable bodies. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.70, n.spe, pp.132-141. ISSN 1809-5267.

This essay seeks escapes from the system of judgment, which models bodies from judgment, guilt and failure. For Artaud, this system empties life of its power to make itself, from the subduing and transcendent transcendences of the real. The judgment of God, the invisible court attached to the skin, aborts life and gangrenous processes of subjectivation, guaranteeing the order of supposed destiny at the expense and silencing of what pulsates. Cruelty is therefore the combat and the ethic of sustaining life in breath and perspiration, affirming the unfolding of time in bodies and events. If the body is the territory where the act of governing is performed, it is precisely in that place that it is possible to produce confrontations with the system of judgment, through the activation of other sensible regimes, the construction of bodies without organs, as Artaud proposes. In this way, both for Foucault and for Artaud, it is in the materiality of the body where the confrontations of self-government and of the behaviors and tests of a free life are produced.

Keywords : Artaud; Foucault; Body without organs; Subjectivation; Politics.
