La Boétie, servidumbre voluntaria y capitalismo contemporáneo

This article returns to the Discourse of voluntary servitude as a way to rearticulate the critical thinking of La Boetie against tyranny, not only in terms of classical sovereignty analytics, but rather addressing our contemporary modes of sovereignty: less visible, normalized, and intensified in contemporary capitalism. The text is built around three conceptual moments: servitude, resistance, and friendship, used to actualize political power around the controversial Discourse, suggesting possible hermeneutics to fully address the relationship between servitude and free will in neoliberal capitalism
