Abstract

In this article, you will find qualitative-ethnographic research that was developed among young university students from Bogotá taking as references their subjective constructions on Facebook, the interpretive model was that of Foucault, while the subjective construction was seen as a form of self-government, framed in a technology of governmentality called neoliberalism. With Foucault, staging is interpreted as a form of self-care, which seeks a governance of the subject over itself, hand in hand with the scenario of neoliberal power.
