Harassment today and its truth games

The aim of this essay is to support the hypothesis that today's frequent use of the word harassment is linked with the social and historical conditions in which new language games derive from this word. As a consequence there is a dissemination of other truth games. The excessive use of this signifier and the imprecision in its semantic field can be interpreted in the current context of a power shifting and the State's loss sovereignty.

Power; Truth; Subjectivation
