In this paper, my aim is to establish an Archeology of Madness and to seek highlight the madman and the madness in the meeting of philosophical underpinnings with scientific and technological framework. In this sense, I lean over for two possibilities of understanding the madman whose ultimate consequence is to back for an Ethics of Alterity. In other words, I seek to build a look at the Homo sapiens sapiens differences – at the man as previously defined concept - from Michel Foucault´s view on Histoire de la folie à l’age classique. Moreover, I try to analyze this Archeology of Madness as a possibility of prior understanding of the structures of biopower.Downloads
