The proposal of this paper is to consider some questions regarding the new boundaries of the phenomenon of contemporary violence. More specifically, how this context, allied to the logic of global control, imprints its marks on Brazilian society. From this conjunction between a global functioning and its effects on the Brazilian historical process, we will pass on to the bottlenecks and the challenges for the subjective process and for the inscription into the social tie on the contemporary. It is this context, we will shall pursue the discussion with the hypothesis that there occurs a disfiguration of the social other, possibly stemming from a zone of anomia, where legality and illegality are interwoven and at times confused. In this way, from the intersection of the subjectivization forms of the contemporary and the practices of the exercise of power, we will discuss the impediments to singularization in a context entirely barren at the limits of the extreme de-subjectivation of the socius.
