RESUMO

This research focus on technologies that are enabled to access control, surveillance, monitoring and identification of persons, connected with databases and profiles construction on the population. In this vast universe, the biometric technology for identification has been focused from a case study on the new biometric identity document Brazil: the Civil Identity Register. Based on the Foucaults concept of apparatus, this reasearch aimed to bring out the discourses, institutions, laws, the legal debate, measures, decisions, and scientific statements that configure the operation of power today. Within the sciences, biometrics today area distanced itself from anthropometry and forms of identification of the nineteenth century. This is related with an exercise of power that is no longer that to discipline their bodies (Michel Foucault), but to manage the data flows, or a \"body of data. New technologies are related with an exercise of power closer to what Gilles Deleuze called societies of control.
