Abstract
This text proposes that in the novel Sumar (2018) by Diamela Eltit, counterhegemonic practices or about resistance to power are made visible, which appears configured as an entity of political control. These counterhegemonic practices not only take place in traditionallysubversive activities, such as the protesting march, but also in the protesters' own bodies, which becomes the stage of the systemic violence. On the basis of the above, I can assert that in this novel its characters raise the utopia of emancipation to the neoliberal model, from bodies that operate as refractory signs to a patriarchal-war logic; framed in a context of defeats of doctrines and practices that in the past pointed towards a path of liberation.
