Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze the relationship of man with death and its deployment in subjectivity and in aging. We did a brief history about the vision of death over time and we did an analysis on the process of aging and dying according to the logic of biopolitical management. With the death and old age increasingly distant from the horizons of life, subjectivity has been weakened. Thus, incorporating these aspects as there is part of one of the challenges both to the thought as to build itself.
