          Abstract

          Resumen La filosofía política de Giorgio Agamben gravita en torno a los conceptos de soberanía, excepción, biopolítica y totalitarismo para describir las formas modernas de ejercicio del poder. A partir de estos temas, este artículo realiza un análisis comparativo con Hannah Arendt y Carl Schmitt, quienes representan un referente constitutivo en la propuesta agambeniana, e identifica los puntos de divergencia y convergencia entre ellos. El debate Agamben-Arendt-Schmitt permite comprender las formas de operación del poder soberano en los Estados modernos a través de la intervención en la vida biológica y del uso, que deviene en constante, de instrumentos jurídicos como el estado de excepción. De ello no solo se concluye la vigencia de estos temas que se creían liquidados por la hegemonía del modelo liberal, sino que no hay una tendencia a la desaparición del Estado, en cambio, el poder que ejerce tiende a ensanchar su ámbito de intervención de formas menos visibles y más efectivas.

          Abstract Sovereignty, state of emergency, biopolitics, and totalitarianism are the core concepts of Giorgio Agamben’s political philosophy, which intends to describe how power is exercised in the modern State. This paper is a comparative analysis of Agamben’s proposal with Hannah Arendt and Carl Schmitt’s thought in order to identify the divergences and convergences between them. The Agamben-Arendt-Schmitt debate allows the understanding of the way in which the mechanisms of sovereign power work through the intervention in biological life and the use of legal tools, such as the state of emergency. Thus, it is possible to conclude that those topics are still prevailing, even when it seems to have been settled by the liberal hegemony, and the fact that the State is not likely to disappear but that its power is exercised in wider fields, in a more effective way, and with less evident effects.
