However, this central tower is constructed in such a way that prisoners cannot tell whether someone is actually present in the tower or not. Panopticism is an efficient mode of power, since it is characterized by individualization and depersonalization: Hence, the prison and the mental institution were traditionally removed from the centre and pushed to the outskirts of the city.

Power is therefore exercised along the axis of the inside and the outside, the central and the peripheral. During the latter part of the twentieth century, most of these social in- stitutions have lost ground as normative centres.

Similarly, assessment in education and work has become increasingly flexible and subjects are given ever more freedom to arrange private affairs with their professional lives. Rather than weakening the enforcement of discipline, the breaking-down of traditional sites of disciplinary power has reinforced it. In the society of global control, power has become fleeting and is no longer restricted to a spatial or temporal axis.

Rather than a mode of successive incarceration, power is now characterized by limitless methods of control spread out over the entire social field. Indeed, his arrest passes in the most unofficial fashion, without detainment, without accusation and — ironically enough — without a trial. This peculiarity of The Trial has prompted many scholars to suggest that K.

After all, the main exertion of power in modernity is not tied to the actual detainment of a subject or some exemplary punishment, but is based on self- discipline: Thus, rather than regarding the peculiar subjectivity of Joseph K. It is a paradox that a novel that abounds in references to court proceedings, the workings of the law, and the development of a trial actually does not seem to be concerned with a power that is legally coded.

Indeed, the kind of power that concerns K. The lack of such official measures as accusation, trial, and detainment not only indicate that subjects in modern society are always already under arrest hence, it is upon awakening that K. Indeed, of all the possible directions K. Thus, in The Trial any reference to an official legal framework of power soon dissolves into nothingness: And even when he discovers the book used by the court officials to judge him during the cross-examination, it appears to be nothing more than a porno book 76 — Upon his arrest, K.

Similarly, representatives of the court and this is, it seems, everybody that K. Jane Bennett rightly notes: This is not to say that Kafka obscures the model of power that underlies his work. Indeed, the painter gives K. The first option, definite acquittal [wirkliche Freispruch], is simply impos- sible; no-one has ever been fully released from the hold of the court cf. Thus freedom can never be more than temporary: As such, it aims to obstruct the court proceedings and to postpone judgment as long as possible. Interestingly, the concepts introduced by Titorelli are remarkably similar to the models of power described above.

Indeed, whereas in disciplinary society, one is apparently free but is, in fact, going from one incarceration or: Kafka, who had already placed himself at the pivotal point between two types of social formation, described the most fearsome of juridical forms. The apparent acquittal of the disciplinary societies between two incarcerations ; and the limitless postponements of the societies of control in continuous variation […] Deleuze, Postscript 5.

Der Prozess

Interestingly, Kafka tends to show a preference for the model of indefinite postponement. It delineates at the same time a model of reading, an architectural model, and a mode of subjectivity. Two models of space The development from disciplinary society to a society of global control testifies to a shift in the exercise of power, but must also be read as the transition of one spatial model to another. Whereas the enclosed environment pertains to the former, an unbounded and transmuting space characterizes the latter. The old monetary mole is the animal of the spaces of enclosure, but the serpent is that of the societies of control.

We have passed from one animal to the other, from the mole to the serpent, in the system under which we live, but also in our manner of living and in our relations with others Deleuze, Postscript 5.

Refusal to interact with the outside is also manifest in the stale air and unbearable heat that is present whenever K. A telling example of this is the use of windows; as Hochreiter writes: But readers of Kafka are equally acquainted with a sense of disorientation caused by un- suspected doors, long staircases, and labyrinthine corridors that traverse rooms and connect faraway places. Deleuze and Guattari have analysed this architectural opposition in their influential study Kafka. Towards a Minor Literature [] in terms of an astronomical model of space and a terrestrial one.

Exemplary in this regard is The Great Wall of China, where the construction can never be completed since it is only being built in fragments, between which gaps persist.

The structure of a peripheral ring implies a centre around which it revolves: But the model equally pertains to The Trial where K. As Deleuze and Guattari indicate: It is an astronomical construction. It is the formula for ostensible acquittal in The Trial 72, my emphasis, JB. The Panopticon Such an astronomical construction reminds one of a panoptical architecture in which centre and periphery share a similar logic.

Bystanders are indeed a recurring feature of K. Upon his arrest, for example, an old woman observes him from a window across from his apartment. We also meet bystanders when K. Rather, it is the internalization of a gaze in K. Incomparable differences are left yawning down below: Rather than an astronomical architecture, such a tendency to- wards limitlessness, immanence, and contiguity is evinced in a terrestrial model of space.

Likewise, spatial features are seldom fixed: Kafka is going from spaces of enclosure to spaces of contiguity; space now follows the shifting coils of the serpent rather than the burrows of a mole. Enclosures are molds, distinct castings, but controls are a modulation, like a self-deforming cast that will continuously change from one moment to the other, or like a sieve whose mesh will transmute from point to point Deleuze, Postscript 4.
