| description | This paper evaluates the biopolitical implications of COVID-19 pandemic in Peru and the world. It proposes that, due to the coronavirus characteristics and its effects on the populations’ health, security and economy, this disease has the ability to reveal the true biopolitical approaches adopted by each nation. The application of necropolitics as government measures to confront the coronavirus, with inequity and inefficiency, is reviewed. In the same way, the concept of ontopolitics is developed as a fundamental tool for defining reality and its components, an act that will decide the implementation of the different disease containment plans. After reviewing its historical and practical connotations, the term “idiopolitics” is proposed to denote that type of government that, in open contradiction with the main objective of politics, of seeking the common good for the citizens of the state, manages and disposes of the public resources guided by particular needs and interests. |

Este trabajo evalúa las implicancias biopolíticas de la pandemia del COVID-19 en el Perú y el mundo. Plantea que, debido a las características del coronavirus y sus efectos sobre la salud, la seguridad y la economía de los pueblos, esta enfermedad tiene la capacidad de revelar los verdaderos enfoques biopolíticos adoptados por cada nación. Se reseña la aplicación de la necropolítica como medida gubernamental para enfrentar al coronavirus con inequidad e ineficiencia. Del mismo modo, se desarrolla el concepto de ontopolítica como herramienta fundamental para la definición de la realidad y sus componentes, acción que decidirá la puesta en práctica de los diferentes planes de contención de la enfermedad. Tras revisar sus connotaciones históricas y prácticas, se propone el término “idiopolítica” para denotar aquel tipo de gobierno que, en abierta contradicción con el objetivo principal de la política de procurar el bien común a los ciudadanos del estado, regenta y dispone de los recursos públicos guiado por necesidades e intereses particulares. 2021-03-17 2022-03-17T19:11:47Z 2022-03-17T19:11:47Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://www.comunicacionunap.com/index.php/rev/article/view/457 10.33595/2226-1478.12.1.457 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/54336 spa eng http://www.comunicacionunap.com/index.php/rev/article/view/457/272 http://www.comunicacionunap.com/index.php/rev/article/view/457/273 Derechos de autor 2021 Comuni@cción: Revista de Investigación en Comunicación y Desarrollo https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 application/pdf application/pdf Escuela Profesional de Ciencias de la Comunicación Social de la Universidad Nacional del Altiplano Comuni@cción: Revista de Investigación en Comunicación y Desarrollo; Vol. 12 Núm. 1 (2021); 77-90 Comuni@cción: Journal of Research in Communication and Development; Vol. 12 No. 1 (2021); 77-90 Comuni@cción: Revista de Pesquisa em Comunicação e Desenvolvimento; v. 12 n. 1 (2021); 77-90 2226-1478 2219-7168 |
