The industry of insecurity and the sale of security

In so-called modern times, the law is a fundamental element for social organization, articulated by the production of the free man, the citizen, governed by devices of discipline and security, which existence is just possible if produced the insecurity. A relationship according to which the insecurity calls the security and this one the justice with its apparatus to subsidize it. From the analysis proposed by Michel Foucault, we can note that the judicialization is a perspective that encourages the insecurity to sell security as a condition for the capitals' world control: it feeds on an industry of insecurity and a profit space. Everyday relationship allow us to think the production of insecurity as a financial and bio political strategy, driven by a large army composed also by the University, and a market to sell security, ranging from the incentive of fear to the blows of weapons.
