PRAXIS212202025-05-13T02:04:30Z Sodomy in Early 20th-Century Costa Rica: Prophylactic Episteme and Biopolitical Intervention in Social Space. La sodomía a inicios del siglo XX en Costa Rica. Episteme profiláctica e intervención biopolítica del espacio social Gómez-Solano, Paulo Michel Foucault examination criminal law prophylaxis homosexuality Michel Foucault examen derecho penal profilaxis homosexualidad This paper argues, based on a sample of sodomy cases processed between 1900 and 1922, that between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, a prophylactic episteme emerged in the country. This episteme will be responsible for the simultaneous and harmonious unfolding of social sanitization apparatuses and legal apparatuses that will aim to a “dangerous subject” as that in which characteristics of perversion, disease and degeneration are condensed in the same body, and which, in this case, calcifies in the sodomite. It concludes that these devices operated together to create spaces for biopolitical intervention. El presente trabajo sostiene, a partir de una muestra de casos de sodomía tramitados entre 1900 y 1922, que entre finales del siglo XIX e inicios del XX emerge una episteme profiláctica en el país. Dicha episteme será responsable del despliegue simultáneo y armónico de dispositivos de higienización social y dispositivos jurídicos que tendrán como objeto a un “sujeto peligroso” en quien se condensan características de perversión, enfermedad y degeneración en un mismo cuerpo, y que, para este caso, se calcifican en el sodomita. Se concluye que dichos dispositivos operaron conjuntamente para crear espacios de intervención biopolítica.
