Abstract
DE SOUSA, Marco Túlio and DE CARVALHO, Carlos Alberto. The media device: from the Foucauldian concept to the application in communication studies. anagramas rumbos sentidos comun. [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.32, pp.31-46. ISSN 1692-2522. https://doi.org/10.22395/angr.v16n32a2.
In this article, we return to the concept of Michel Foucault’s device and we seek to apply it to communication studies. Therefore, we made a bibliographic review of Foucault and his commentators: Agamben, and Deleuze. After that, we compared the contributions of researchers in the field of communication who also use the term “device”, whether based on the Foucauldian approach or on other perspectives. From this journey, our contribution is presented here, in which we seek to align Foucault's perspective to the specificities of the media as an object of study.
