Abstract
After describing in detail the functioning of the disciplinary power, Michel Foucault advanced with less precision in the conceptualization of biopolitics, of a type of population regulation that reduces life to its biological dimensions. Retaking, yet also correcting these developments, Giorgio Agamben marked a structural relationship between sovereignty and life, mediated by the state of exception. In this work I am interested in remarking that the concepts of sovereignty and state of exception are not even applicable to Nazism, the only historical example analyzed by the Italian author.
