Abstract：
Michel Foucault\'s modes of power (sovereign, disciplinary and bio-politics) have dominated both our understanding of power and norm. It is pretty impossible to think of the organisation of life outside his thinking. Here I argue that the idea and practice of mutual aid, articulated by Peter Kropotkin in his 1902 book Mutual Aid (2009) stirs us towards a different understanding of the management of life, bereft of hierarchies and bestowed with co-operation and care. Moreover, as I argue, the existence of mutual aid groups and practices challenges the very idea of the norm. This has become even more apparent during the Covid19 pandemic with the surfacing of mutual aid groups globally. It is therefore rather misleading to understand our present as generator of the \'new normal\'; such claims are mere rhetorical devices aiming at keeping us in our place.
摘要：
米歇尔·福柯的权力模式(主权，学科和生物政治)主导了我们对权力和规范的理解。在他的思想之外，几乎不可能想到生活的组织。在这里，我认为互助的思想和实践，彼得·克罗波特金在他1902年的书“互助”（2009年）中阐述了我们对生活管理的不同理解，失去等级制度，给予合作和关怀。此外，正如我所说，互助团体和实践的存在挑战了规范的理念。在Covid19大流行期间，随着全球互助组织的出现，这一点变得更加明显。因此，将我们的现在理解为“新常态”的产生者是相当误导的；这种说法仅仅是修辞手段，旨在使我们处于我们的位置。
