Résumé

This text offers a reflection, based on authors from State Theory, Political Science, Political and Legal Philosophy, and legal theory, on the transformations of the modern world that shaped what is here called the “machine age,” as well as on its deepening in the context of contemporary digitalization. It argues that this process intensifies forms of dehumanization associated with biopower and legal formalisms, especially legal positivism.
