One way to analyze the modern phenomenon of biopolitics is to look at the interaction between community and immunity. Community is a collective situation of absolute reciprocity where there is a continuous obligation on every member of the community. Immunity is when individuals are separated from this continuity and exempted from this obligation as a way to protect the individual identity. This process of immunity can be used to preserve life at the expense of the social body, and to impose various techniques that define life regardless of free will. In other words, immunity has the possibility of destroying what it was meant to protect.
