초록
Vineland is a postmodern American fiction set in California, United States in 1984, the year of Ronald Reagan’s re-election. Through flashbacks by its characters, who have lived the sixties in their youth, the storyline of the novel is complexly intertwined with the 1960s, a decade of protests and the height of the rebellious hippie era and the 1980s, a decade of political conservatism, such as Ronald Reagan’s Reaganomics which refers to the neoliberal economic policies. This paper aims to show how the liberal governmental power in 1960s and the neoliberal power in 1980s portrayed in Vineland are exercised through the characters of the novel from the viewpoint of Michel Foucault’s (neo)liberal governmentality and biopolitics. Also, this study examines how the mechanism of governmental powers subordinates the subjects to them. Finally, this research illuminates strategies of resisting liberal and neoliberal governments that subjugate the subjects to governmental power producing “a docile subject” and the “entrepreneur of the self” on the theoretical frameworks of Foucault and Gilles Deleuze.
Abstract
Vineland is a postmodern American fiction set in California, United States in 1984, the year of Ronald Reagan’s re-election. Through flashbacks by its characters, who have lived the sixties in their youth, the storyline of the novel is complexly intertwined with the 1960s, a decade of protests and the height of the rebellious hippie era and the 1980s, a decade of political conservatism, such as Ronald Reagan’s Reaganomics which refers to the neoliberal economic policies. This paper aims to show how the liberal governmental power in 1960s and the neoliberal power in 1980s portrayed in Vineland are exercised through the characters of the novel from the viewpoint of Michel Foucault’s (neo)liberal governmentality and biopolitics. Also, this study examines how the mechanism of governmental powers subordinates the subjects to them. Finally, this research illuminates strategies of resisting liberal and neoliberal governments that subjugate the subjects to governmental power producing “a docile subject” and the “entrepreneur of the self” on the theoretical frameworks of Foucault and Gilles Deleuze.
