Aim of this work is trying to show, from a mainly theoretical standpoint but with constant ref-erences to Italian concrete cases, how neoliberalism, even though usually described as a State withdrawal from many issues left to individuals� freedom, would actually represent an increase in forms of State inter-vention and control. The paper aims to analyze what forms this control may take, starting from current economic crisis, finding they are attributable to two scenarios: an explicit centralizing form, analyzed through the analytical tools of "state of exception" literature (Schmitt, Agamben); an implicit technical form, studied referring to the literature on "government through numbers" (Porter, Power, Miller, Es-peland, Desrosier). The paper also tries to show, once again through concrete examples, and by compari-son with Polanyi�s analysis of resistance to �900 classical liberalism, how behind the two neoliberal power there would be the same strength to impose to consciences, and most of all what would be the conse-quences of this for the possibility for social movements to try to deconstruct neoliberalism�s discourse, and to challenge it by collective action.
