摘要：The present article discusses the evil to be what the aging of the body acquires in the contemporaneousness and the efforts undertaken to rejuvenate it taking as a reference what Michel Foucault called of bio-politics. Is it based on the understanding of body like a social construction that can be understood only in the interior of the culture that produced it, and from the contemporary worship to the body like a process that unfolds in successive apprenticeships that promise to free this body of ancient repressions, at the same time in which they set others up – new? – coercions.
