Abstract

Este ensaio faz uma visão geral da relação entre vigilância, indivíduos e realidade. Para fazer isso, lanço mão de uma perspectiva multinível que conecta poder (da agência à estrutura) à teoria de sistemas sociais. Esta nova conexão pretende apresentar uma visão holística sobre como os indivíduos são gerenciados além de idéias sobre resistência e tecnologia. No primeiro nível de agência, os indivíduos são limitados pela interação contínua por meio da exploração digital e da manipulação comportamental. No segundo meso nível, os indivíduos se fundem num sistema de informações que renderiza, classifica e distorce fragmentos de dados que emulam a ontologia deles. Por fim, no terceiro nível estrutural, mais do que sujeitos fragmentados, argumento que indivíduos e seus dados constituem um novo ciclo hermenêutico no qual a própria realidade é redefinida em uma leitura autopoiética das coisas que se afasta dos sujeitos e dos saberes.
