The forms of subjectivity imposed by neoliberalism, by promoting risk and private entrepreneurship, generate insecurity, dereliction, and withdrawal among those who feel exposed. In his courses devoted to neoliberalism, Michel Foucault linked material security with ethical autonomy, paving the way for the understanding of new relationships between health and social services, a relationship that is now being explicitly echoed in the movement of intermittents.
