Abstract
The essay deals with the heterogeneous and plural forms of political subjectivism formed in the provisional and precarious agency of concrete political practices of adaptation and opposition to the norm. The purpose of this work is to try depicting an image of city in which is cofirmed a relational and processual meaning of power that, crucial to the foucaulian reflection, marks all displacement and deployment from purely vertical (and repressive) concepts to more widespread and participatory forms. Concerning with political and social practices the recovery of these forms of political subjectivity could valorize subjects to neither universally defined, nor closed and trapped in their substantial differences, but individuals, groups, populations who, starting from their contingency, ask – at different levels and in different ways – to place, occupy and cross the space of politics.
