Resum:
This research analyzes how the Christian Ministry REMAR, [which means rehabilitation for the marginalized] is configured as a religious space of <care and confinement> for marginalized people. We have been interested in seeing the points of confluence and separation between this institution and the governmentality of the Spanish State and more specifically of the Autonomous Community of Catalonia. To develop this research, I use the conceptual discussion proposed by Michel Foucault (2009) on the analytic of power and the modes of subjectivation and objectivation of the human being in Western culture. This discussion, as a theoretical tool, has allowed us to analyze and to look closer to the different mechanisms and technologies developed for population government and control. In this specific case the government and control of marginal populations, both within the institution and in the State. And I seek to establish a dialogue with the notion of charity, understood not only as one of the mechanisms developed by the church for the attention of these populations, but from a reading of Christianity, to understand charity as a possibility of establishing relationships of reciprocity and Care of the 'other', in terms of Weil (2010). In this sense, it is a matter of making two different perspectives compatible, one related to Governmentality and the other to the notion of justice
