Abstract

This paper analyses the notion of security and freedom through the lens of Foucault`s methodology. On the trace of his distinction between three different techniques of governance: law, discipline and security we see how today`s society has turn out into a society of security, where people are trading their freedom for alleged security. People are willing to give up their freedom in order to be safe and secured. But as we can see that is not true. Security is not for the people, but for the system. And what is most important, by giving up of a freedom, people are giving up of their essential ontological trait, they are trading its ontological essence – freedom, for ephemeral feature – security.
