Abstract
In this article we propose to revisit some of the strong points of critical theory, in the sense of presenting how certain institutional mechanisms of production and reproduction of knowledge have been constituted in "courts of reason" that provide or take away social legitimacy to different forms of knowledge, of subjectivity, of production and of life in general. These mechanisms produce (and destroy, rather than inhibit) a hegemonic culture, but also subcultures and subaltern countercultures, in such a way that it is not possible to think one without the others. From this perspective, it is proposed to analyze the Plan Colombia, based on a ritual discursive fabric that proposes to adapt Colombian complexity to the geopolitical and sociocultural mandates of the hegemonic powers.
