In general, this research intends to demonstrate how, in the current era of neurocapitalism and alliances between (neuro) psychiatry, neurosciences and psychopharmacology, a social reality has emerged in which psychological suffering is extremely widespread, encompassing an increasing number of people and, mainly, of situations. Over the years, the number of individuals affected by some mental disorder has increased dramatically, characterizing a true epidemic. Thus, observing the relevance of the theme, the present study asks how the process of psycho-pathologization the daily life that plagues contemporary society was constituted? The initial hypothesis is that there is a double movement at the heart of this problem: at the same time as it is recognized that today, everyday life stimulates the increase in malaise, there are also practices that, instead of containing the number of cases only assist in its expansion. In other words, it is a paradoxical process, which brings extremely important considerations to the scope of criminological studies on violence (in its broadest sense) and on social control. Therefore, to assemble a cartography of the different paths (and interests) that supplement this mechanism - understood, above all, as an efficient form of domination - the methodological strategy used will be an interdisciplinary bibliographic review, which will have as starting point the Foucaultian theoretical framework on the power and government relations that permeate psychiatry. So, first, the objective is to understand the influence of the economic sphere of (neuro) capital and the neoliberal matrix in the modulation of subjectivities, as well as in the expansion of malaise. Subsequently, in view of the relevance of neuroscience and pharmacology for the new practices that have been installed in the context of mental health care, the focus will be to demonstrate how the (neuro) psychiatric activity and the (re) medicalization of the population have also helped, strongly, in the constitution of the paradox that forms the referred psycho-pathologization process and the damages that result from it. Anyway, with this, it will be possible to show that in addition to the progressive discourses that involve these practices, there is a silent form of violence that must be urgently highlighted.
